Hi there,

I just received my IELTS test score today with an overall band score of 8.5; Listening: 8.5, Reading: 9, Writing: 7 and Speaking 8.5.

The problem is I wasn't too confident that I would get such good results and so booked another IELTS test date which is next week. However since I've got a pretty good score I was wondering if I should try and get a refund on my next IELTS score or should I aim to get a higher score?

Will my overall CRS score increase if I manage to get higher in Listening and Reading?

Appreciate any and all advise.
 
Since you already paid try for 7.5 in writing if you need 3 more points. You won't get a refund this late.
 
Thanks for the prompt revert. But will those 3 points make much of a difference in my overall CRS score?

But you're right - since I've paid for it might as well give it again

Congrats on your good score. what's your CRS score using this IELTS result? If it's above 441. create your EE profile ASAP. You can call them/mail them that you'll like for someone else to register using the money you've already paid and gift the exam to someone else who needs a higher score (if such a thing is possible), because I honestly don't think they issue refunds unless you can't take the exam due to unforeseen circumstances/illness/death.

No you can only get 3 more points for a 7.5 in writing. you already have the maximum for R& L.

Thanks. I'm expecting my WES evaluation to be complete by 11th September so unfortunately can't open my profile just yet. Will have to wait in any case.
 
It's still CLB 9,you can aim for CLB 10 in case your CRS isn't high enough
 
Can u guys give some advise on getting such great IELTS scores? particularly speaking please
