    Helo po question, yung sa Writing, hand writing po ba yun or type using keyboard?
    Worried kasi ako sa handwriting ng asawa ko pang doctor baka mahirapan magbasa ang examiner hehe..
    in my opinion may bearing din yung handwriting.. kasi kung di sya gaano mabasa malamang may impact din sa score.. sabi ng wife ko.. tingin nya ok na ako sa second try ko sa ielts kaso pangit sulat ko kaya 6.5 ako...

    Dun sa Speaking Exam ang masasabi ko lang...sometimes less is better. Talking longer will not always work in your favor kasi dun ka magkakamali...Be more concise with your answer and break your sentences into short but meaningful ones....

    'Simple sentence + complex + complex + compound' etc structure may sound intelligent but the assessor will also check if what you said made sense at all :)

    @alexamae.. i think kaya naman.. however, pls make sure na whatever happens to one of the section..it will not affect the other section.. for example.. if you think medyo alanganin yung listening.. move on ka na.. and concentrate on reading.... Also, when you're reviewing.. make sure na i simulate mo yung actual test.. like... tuloy tuloy.. Listening, Reading, Writing... para ma train na yung mind mo... sa test kasi.. baka sa reading pa lang.. pagod ka na.. medyo ala ka ng power for writing.. ;)

    I think this was my mistake. I used complex, even compound-complex sentences during my speaking test, and i probably spoke a little too much. The result, more speaking mistakes. =)

    eto nagpahirap sa akin yung writing talaga, sulat doktor din ako, hehehe. Plus I had a swollen tendon on my right hand when i took the exam at hirap na hirap akong magsulat. umulit din ako pero hanggang 6.5 lang talaga ang writing ko, i even requested for remarking pa ( nagbakasakali na doktor ang bumasa ng sulat ko) hehehe. Suggest ko lng sis Alexamae practice ka nung 10 words per line para madali bilangin saka sa listening naman focus talaga kasi pag na distract ka tendency mahihirapan maghabol. magdala na rin ng jacket kung lamigin kasi may mga venue na malamig masyado.

    Its a sad day today for me when I saw my IELTS results. Aminado tlga ako na mahirap ang naging experience ko as a novice IELTS taker. Lack of practise is what makes me feel bad.1 week lng ata ang ginahol ko dun before the big day came....kaya tuloy ito rin ang dahilan ng heartache ko ngaun. ehehehhe

    I suggest to all the IELTS takers that you have to do thorough preparation. Kung kaya ang self-preparation, why not! basta may thorough and enough preparation tlga. I believe sanayan din yan. In my own experience, masyado akong naging kampante sa writing ko kasi nga raw may journalism background ako e ayun tuloy sumabit. lesson learned---study and carefully read the sample of writing output like the graphs interpretation and all sa required module mo same with listening. sanayin mo self mo ng tunog ng british english especially yung mga vocabs sa directions kasi dun talaga ako naging alanganin. may term kasi na paulit-ulit pero hindi ko makuha-kuha kung ano ang ibig sabihin nun. sa speaking naman, gamitan mo ng accent at fluency at kunting expressive vocabs or descriptive words. And speaking about reading, mahirap talaga xa kasi ang hahaba ng passage tapos yung content pa ay parang scholarly type at research ba kasi academic ang required sa akin plus time cramming pa. mahirap xa, I swear pero AGAIN walang mahirap sa pinaghahandaan ng mabuti. On top of this, preparation is very much and utmostly needed.

    PS. Sa mga kukuha ng ACADEMIC, we need to double time kasi by January 13, ung assessing body natin ay may bagong IELTS Requirement to specially mention ay yung mga gurong katulad ko, Sabi doon, ang mga magpa assess after ng January 2013 ay dapat ganito ang IELTS SCORE: L and S-8.0 at Reading and Writing-7 naman...hindi lng nman xa mahirap abutin, ahahahahha...LORD, sana mkaya pa namin to. Hindi lng kasi ang psychological effect ang nkataya dito pati na rin ung bulsa natin...LORD, papasahin mo na kami sa mga IELTS SCORE REQUIREMENTS...again the Bible says, delight urself in the LORD and He will grant the desires of your heart...wag taung mawalan ng pag-asa. Failure should not make us stop and quit yet it should drive us more to conquer failure and feel greater than it.

    Kaya sa mga nawawalan ng pag-asa at natatakot jan, tara na...retake na tau...basta ako willing na ako magpa register ulit, (Dec 8???)

    What I am more even grateful is that despite the failing marks, I am still able to pay the 10K yang english exam na yan kahit papaano.Kasi kung nasa Pinas pa cguro ako, iisipin pa lng na magtake, hindi na maiisipan pa...ehehehe...kaya grab the opportunity pipz!

    Godbless sa lahat!

    Hindi standard ang IELTS test fee. Sa Sydney BC it's AUD330, IDP Australia AUD176. Convert mo na lang sa x40, Php 12,000+ na agad yun. Sa British Council, Php 8,986.00 ang test fee. Sa IDP PhP 8640.00. Parehong sa Philippines na lang yan magkaiba pa. Depende sa nagf-facilitate talaga ng IELTS exam. For reference, here are the links.

    @R_Yell Im taking my IELTS 3rd time this Dec. Personal opinion, base sa topic ang Writing and Speaking in order to get high scores (of course kung you know yourself that you can write and speak English ;) ). For Listening and Writing, may mga exam na mahirap at tricky talaga. In addition, dapat good mood ka during exam day : ). Nagreview talaga ako ng sobra nung my 2nd time tas nung day na ng exam nilagnat ako (dahil sa puspusang review, I guess?) and my scores ended up lower than my first try. Though good enough to apply for state sponsorship. Thank God :) . I was 8 on my speaking on 1st try then naging 6.5 nung 2nd try? Dahil i ran out of ideas plus not feeling well, but I still tried my best (same day ang exam, ang saklap, gusto ko n talaga umuwi).

    I agree with you, we should not give up. Kayang kaya natin to. Pasasaan bat ibibigay din ni God satin ang magandang scores :)

    Good luck sa atin.

    Hi @RobertSG, curious lang, bat kelangan mo pa magretake ng IELTS if you already submitted your application for SA SS and EOI. I guess that you already met score of 7 kaya nakapagsubmit ka na rin ng application. :)

    Sabi nila mas mataas daw magbigay ng grades sa Speaking Exam ang BC...Pero kung ako yan, pareho lang yung dalawa...piliin niyo na lang yung mas accessible sa inyo hehe
