Hello, I haven't taken any exam on IELTS yet, but will do.
I am wondering how hard to get a Speaking of 7.0. I am from Hong Kong.
Other sections I am pretty confident, I have completed 4 year PhD study in the UK and worked for 2 year as researcher in Canadian University. No problem in daily life.
In particular, my TOEFL exam in 2013 is:
Reading: 30/30
Writing: 29/30
Listening: 27/30
Speaking: 20/30
Well, I used to get 22/30 in previous exam. I am not used to talking to a computer.....
My expected IELTS band for each section are follows (with reference to Express Entry score), do you think realistic?
Reading: 8.0-9.0
Writing: 7.5-9.0
Listening: 8.0
Speaking: 6.5
As you see, I think I can really score high in other sections than the Speaking. I really would like to have 7.0, or even 8.0 (this would be fabulous!)
I heard IETLS can be "trained" to get high score, really? Any advice?
