first time ko ni-take ay band 7 ako. overconfident at di nag review, take lang ng exam. tapos problema ko ay minus 4 years ako sa ACS (professional assessment). learned from this experience, nag review ako for 1 month (intensively for 2 weeks), ayun... sa awa ng maykapal naka band 8 (may 9 pa sa ibang modules).
so hardwork lang and kaya yan

also, please be on the lookout din sa mga "pre-testing" exams na ino-offer mismo ng IELTS. eto ung soon to be exams, pero kelangan nila i-pilot test muna.
