IE 33: Should YOU Take the IELTS? Find Out Why or Why Not

Get your FREE IELTS CHEAT SHEET NOW What is the IELTS? Who takes it, and why? Today, Lindsay and Jessica discuss all the basics of the IELTS exam! The IELTS is an exam that’s usually taken by non-native English speakers. The academic version of the exam is for students who want to study in a English-language university. A more general IELTS exam is taken by job candidates who want to work in English-speaking countries. The two versions are very similar – the only difference is that the academic test has more difficult reading and writing sections. IELTS is completed with pencil and paper, and by speaking with a real person. This is very different from something like TOEFL, which is computerized. However, the IELTS does have very specific rules. This means that knowing what to expect can help you get a better score. If you’re at intermediate level and you’re planning to take the exam, you should begin preparing for it least 3-6 months ahead. Also, be aware that the IELTS is very popular, so seats fill up fast. Ielts.org has a list of where and when you can take the exam. Many people who take the test don’t get the score they need the first time. Don’t worry, you can take it again! The best way to improve your chances is to know what to expect, and to prepare. More details are coming soon about our 3 Keys IELTS System! Stay tuned to learn more! Are you going to take the IELTS?

IE 20: How Time Flies on the IELTS Writing Section

Come back to our blog and have a conversation with us! http://allearsenglish.com/ielts-writing-time-strategy/ Also get our IELTS Cheat Sheet to find out what the Examiner wants on the Speaking test: http://www.allearsenglish.com/evaluation   Are you getting ready for your IELTS exam? One big challenge on the IELTS is timing on the Writing test. Today we’ll help you with a great time-management strategy. You have a total of 60 minutes to do the whole Writing test. Task 2 is 250 words and Task 1 is 150 words so you need to spend more time on Writing Task 2. We recommend 20 minutes for Task 1 and 40 minutes for Task 2. However, don’t start with Writing Task 2. Do Task 1 first. You also need to allow time for planning. It really depends on you and how you prefer to write but we recommend that you practice and see what’s right for you in terms of planning time. As a general guideline, you could spend 4 minutes planning and then spend a few minutes after to check your work. When you practice brainstorming and coming up with ideas in the planning step, don’t forget to write down everything you think of. In Task 2, spend 5 minutes planning, 30 minutes writing, 5 minutes to check. You need to practice the timing for all of these steps and adjust it based on what you need.   Practice is the key with time management. The biggest mistakes that people make with time management on IELTS Writing is when they skip both planning and checking at the end. When you check, look for spelling, grammar, vocabulary, etc. Listen to this episode to learn more about how to check your own IELTS Writing test.   What other questions do you have about IELTS Writing?
