Chopchop Posted January 31, 2015 Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 Hang on in there, I had to do it 3 times to pass. I struggled with the reading section, go on YouTube and watch some tutorials. There is a systematic approach to it and will help you a lot. Yes it is a scam but it's just one if those things that you have to do and you can't do much to change that!

clairej456 Posted January 31, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 31, 2015 its just so disappointing and makes u lose confidence every single time. i revised so much and practised yet on the day i find there is not enough time to find the answers towards the end. i officially hate ielts !!

LoopyLauren Posted February 1, 2015 Report Share Posted February 1, 2015 it is tough, and as i have said before, once yuo have to resit you start doubting yourself. An examiner once said to me, to not read the whole reading passage, just to read through the questions, then search for the answers afterward. That helped me xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jetandspade Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 A lot of people fail the IELTS test and nothing is more frustrating in being from the UK where English is surprisingly spoken and being required to do an English test when coming to Australia. If you fail a few more times or if anyone else fails this test excessively. You can complain in a small claims tribunal. As the test is expensive and it adds up if you have failed more than a few times. An education company made a list of the courts and tribunals you can use to complain. http://www.educationcomplaints.com/australian-courts-tribunals/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotty Posted November 11, 2015 Report Share Posted November 11, 2015 IELTS Ryan on Youtube! I am intelligent but my English is rubbish, I am a Maths person. Copy down the texts that IELTS Ryan writes and study them. Spend at least 2 weeks doing this in the evenings. Find different questions online and construct your answer the same as he does. Look at my signature, it works!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
