    Huwag niyo masyado paghandaan ang IELTS...lalo kayo kakabahan at kaba ang pinakamalaking kalaban natin sa exam na ito lalo na't timed ang mga exams :)

    Just understand the basic concepts of conversing and writing and you should be fine :)

    Hi wisha,tara sa nov.17 na tayo mag take.Actually kahapon lang ako nag start review.Toxic kasi ako sa work kaya sa gabi lang ako nakakapagbasa.Tama si Loki.Grabe kaba ko while reviewing at nakakasira talaga ng focus.Dapat aralin lang natin yung tamang style ng pagcompose ng mga paragraphs and some techniques.

    Guys! I recommend you register in British Council if you're in the Philippines.

    As of the moment, they have a FREE IELTS Assessment so you can check where your weak points are. As in from Listening down to Speaking. They have mock tests and speaking drill offered for the first 150 registrants.

    Go na! Visit http://www.britishcouncil.org/philippines-common-about-us-our-events-free-ielts-mock-test.htm

    @ausie_dream2010, sir best you book your exam at least 2 months ahead para di kayo maubusan. With regards to getting 2 exam dates...I don't find it practical, but if your budget permits, there is no harm in doing that :)
