Does IELTS exam need preparation?
« on: September 03, 2012, 05:26:50 am »
Helloooooooooooo everyone...

Does the IELTS exam need preparation or I can just rely on my English skills??

I booked for 8 Nov, but I might perform Hajj on 24 Oct to 29Oct... so the exam will be one week away when I am back home. So I might get affected by a kind of virus or just feel exhausted !

On 17 Nov, I have exams :S so I guess I wont take that....

then 1 Dec, which is 2 weeks after the school tests...

In short, I have 8 Nov and 1 Dec...
So do yu think that taking the exam on 1 Dec is late?
Will I study IELTS more than Alevels?
Note: I got A in English 2nd Lang ... Speaking - Grade One

Please help becoz Im really confused! :S

I will suggest you an English grammar book and learn it with out teacher. Then some movies with English subtitle will be helpful a lot as they will help you to know about using the words accurately. Also some news channels like fox and CNN will be helpful.

IELTS exams depend tests your english skills, i did them before and thats when i found all my weaknesses, IELTS test your current English skills, so however much you practice you will stay the same unless you seek the help of a good tutor, that is when your skills would get better
