Practise using Cambridge test. for listening, Google cambridge ielts on youtube. For reading, download cambridge test. you could do as much from 1 to 13 but concentrate on the recent ones, 12 and 13. Good luck
Thanks, I already went through all cambridge tests and I would barely score below 7. However, I didn't practice the academic reading tests as I found them really overwhelming, so I practiced mostly general texts. Listening was the same. I went through all listening tests and would score between 7.5 and 8.5. Unfortunately, my current results are even lower than my mock results.

for the listening. you have to concentrate totally and as someone said, underline key words in the question so you answer the question and not just what you hear. All the best. You have to be calm in the exam.

hi mu score is 9/9/7/6.5
6.5 in speaking
and fhis shook
beacause everytime is scored 6.5 in writing and speaking was above 7 or 7 always
in speaking test i completed cue card before 2 mins and there was a pause for 7-8 seconds whereas other rounds went extremely well
should i go for revaluation?
Hi even I got 6.5 this time but 7 last time. I did apply for revaluation. Does anyone know the success rate for speaking from 6.5 to 7? Really worried and disappointed as I got 877 in LRW.

I think that shouldn't be the reason for getting 6.5. the cue card itself says, you have to speak for 1 to 2 minutes. For me 3rd section didn't go well, but let see. Trying out my luck.

8.5 8 7 7.5 my score
I told u that was informal letter
No worries better luck next time
U would achieve definitely
Was it bc or idp
I still think it was semi formal. You know, I think something is wrong with their assessment. In my first time I didn't use synonyms, condition forms, my structure was poor and so on, and I got 6.0. after 1 year of hard preparation now I don't do mistakes, my structure is great, use many forms of grammar, do not repeat words and again 6.0. I think they don't mark needed score due to nationality.
I think it was idp, the usual one.

This is not true
This was my 6th attempt ,and every time I knew that I done something wrong either in listening or writing , and every time I got bands the way I performed
You got 6 six in writing because of your task response
The structure or synonyms doesn’t matter if you don’t answer the question fully in writing
Still u r not accepting it , but I suggest you to accept this and improve the mistake in the future
Look , always assume the writing task as a speaking question
Don’t analyse it too technically as u might be doing
That is what I suggest , rest whenever u need any help , ask m
Winners don’t quit

thanks for clearing my doubt regarding cue card as my other sections went extremely well..
i m definitely going for revaluation now as it was my 8th attempt luckily i scored 7 in writing !!
u need not to worry because many a times my 3rd section went average but i always scored 7 or 7.5
lets hope we get the magical number in revalution..

You should go for reval
But I want to clear one thing . Apparently, you need to speak for one to two minutes in cue card ;however , it’s examiner’s wish whether he or she wants you to speak for 1 minute or full 2 minutes . Hence , if u stopped before the examiner asked u , then u definitely have scored less in section 2
However , if you perform really well in discussion part , then examiner have to give u at least 7 by ignoring ur performance in section 2
