Tip #1 Know the Pattern
Before you begin the preparation, it is important to have background knowledge of the examination.
The International English Language Testing system (IELTS) is a global test worldwide for people who foresee their future in a foreign country. The test is taken by the candidates looking forward to moving abroad.
IELTS Exam Format Is Of Two Types:
Academic IELTS: for the students, who want to do further studies or take admission in any institute
General IELTS: for the candidates, who wish to apply for PR or Jobs in a country where English is the native language.
You can choose either Computer based test (CBT) or Paper Based Test for your IELTS.
Let Us Discuss the Pattern:
Modules | Questions | Time |

Tip #2 Know Your Level And What You Want To Achieve
It is important to know:
at what score you are currently standing in, and
your desired band scores.
You need to have a clear idea of your goal:
For this, you need to take one full mock test of Reading, Writing, Listening and Speaking, with detailed personalised feedback in Writing and Speaking module. So that, you have a direction to follow, or else you will get lost in your preparation and will not have any idea where you are leading to.
Tip #3 Know the Question Types
IELTS is quite different from what we all have done in your schools that is comprehension and composition. It does not judge on the basis of your knowledge, but on how proficiently you can use English Language.
It is important to know each question types specially in Reading where one requires different strategies for varied types of questions.
For example: Sentence completion in Reading module needs students to focus not only on finding out the correct answers to fill the given blanks but also the sentence should be grammatically correct.
Tip #4 Marking Parameters
Marking criteria is different for different modules
Reading and Listening- scores are calculated on the basis of the student’s correct answers. However, Writing and Speaking are calculated on the 4 parameters to give justice to each and every student.
In Writing and Speaking there is nothing called right or wrong answer, every individual has different experience, preferences and Opinions So to bring the uniformity
Writing module score is given on:
Task Achievement and Task Response
Coherence and Cohesion
Lexical Resource
Grammatical Range and Accuracy
Speaking module marked on:
Fluency and Coherence
Lexical Resource
Grammatical Range and Accuracy
Pronunciation
Tip #5 Practice and Check Your Mistakes
Solve exercises regularly and go back to your mistakes and check why your answer is incorrect. It is about learning from your wrong answers and not repeating it again. So, instead of going on and solving more mocks, you need to relax and go back to your mistakes.
Further, writing and speaking personalised feedbacks guide students and create actionable plans.
Tip #6 Take the Guidance
You can prepare yourself and ace your exam, but the whole process is time consuming and demotivating. Take the expert help to guide on daily basis so that you can give your IELTS exam at the earliest.
