When the going gets tough: 5 tips for re-sitting the IELTS test
If you don't receive the IELTS result you desire, it is normal to feel angry and irritated. However, allowing your feelings to rule you in these situations is likely to prevent you from thinking properly and lead you to want to give up on your future goals. Take a step back from the issue after learning the awful news. Give yourself some space to unwind and express your emotions. Talking to friends and family about your experience might help you let off steam and gain a better understanding of your predicament.
In general, taking the IELTS test again to achieve your desired score is strongly advised. Do not, however, rush to retake the test right away! Make sure it is feasible for you to accomplish those objectives. Consider taking an English language course before enrolling in another IELTS preparation course or retaking the exam if there is a significant discrepancy between your current band scores and the ones you require. Even if your current major goal may be to achieve a certain IELTS score, taking a general English course might improve your overall English proficiency. Ultimately, this will boost your IELTS score as well.
Many IELTS test takers prepare on their own, re-take the IELTS test and succeed. However, it is completely acceptable, and in some cases even advisable, to get help. If you think you need expert guidance, consider signing up for an IELTS preparation course. Remember that there are many factors to consider when choosing a preparation course, such as your most recent IELTS scores, your availability, and the type of preparation you need (IELTS Academic test or IELTS General training test).
It's time to get ready for your next try now that you've determined the key areas for improvement and have created a study plan. Both high-quality print resources (such as books, self-study bundles, and other practise materials) and freely accessible online resources are readily available to assist you in your preparation. On the IELTS website, you may access free study resources covering IELTS Reading, Writing, Listening, and Speaking that were created by our in-house experts. You might choose to take an IELTS Progress Check practise exam if you want more focused feedback and test preparation. All four test components for the IELTS Academic and IELTS General Training exams are covered in our authentic mock exams. You will have a thorough feedback report.
Once you have let go of any negative feelings and have taken a break to relax and recover, you’ll be better able to reflect on what went wrong. Analyse your IELTS results by looking at the band score for each individual test. Focus on the difference between the scores you obtained and the ones you want, and choose the main areas requiring attention. Next, make notes on the types of tasks you found difficult in those specific skills and use your notes to help you prepare a plan of study.
Conclusion
As you can see, a band 4 performance has a number of negative features, so you need to make sure that your performance has more positive features than negative features. A band 4 user can use basic sentence structures. These are basic sentence forms with a subject, verb and object. You can also use adjectives and adverbs to add meaning to the other words. For example:
"I live in Australia. I come from Nigeria." You can also download our app from the playstore or visit our website.
