This is what I did.
I read novels and increased my speed of reading habit which helped me to read the question and answer paragraph really faster. Infact, it will help you even in your listening test where you need to read the questions faster....
Secondly, I did all the academic reading tests in Cambridge IELTS books.....
Thirdly, I did not waste time in exam when I could not find answer and I kept it to be dealt with, at last.

If you need help with specific type of questions in reading test, let me know...

Hi,
Thanks for your help.
Having difficulties in Headings section, T, F and NG, I tried to review the academic reading test but I got 5.5 ban

In addition, listening test in section 3 is quite difficult sometimes.

I knew I got it wrong. Just 2 more questions, sorry for the trouble.
Do you remember the section on the cafe or restaurant being set up, I think it was section 3. I know all my answers were fine except the first blank.
I have written - food preparation (what did you write?)
The last few answers were internet access, local authority etc.

Also last section multiple choice questions (there were 4), any memory of the questions and answers.
The second question was about Dan writer mentioning about something - I selected muscle loss
Any idea about the rest three questions?
Hi Megha
Preparations I wrote since it means dishes .yours is fine.

Understand the pattern of the test. This will help tremendously.

Practice
1. Questions asking if the statement is - TRUE/FALSE/NOT GIVEN
2. Answer question in one/two/three words only.
3. Fill in the blanks.
4. Match titles to the paragraphs.


Remember all the answers are right in front of you.
You need to find it.


Go through IELTS reading practice tests. It helps alottttt !!!!!
And to ensure you complete the test on time, allocate each section 10-15 minutes.
Section 4 is always toughest. So allot more time.

I already managed to get Band 8, but due to lack of time I was unable to complete my reading section on time in my latest attempt.
