Hello everyone!
I would like to share my EOR success story:
Test date: 01 June 2019.
Original score: LRWS 8,7.5,6.5,9.
EOR date: 14th June 2018.
Module: General Training. Applied for writing.
Test center: Miami, FL. (BC).
Response from BC: 08 July 2019
Revised score: LRWS 8,7.5,7.5,9.
I had already taken the IELTS exam on November 2018 but sadly missed CLB 9 as I got a 7.5 in listening. I lost focus for a while and missed many questions. The scores were: LRWS 7.5,7.5,7.5,8.5. I decided to wait for a while and prepare better for the listening section.
For the second attempt, I was very confident about my writing but I was shocked when I saw the results on June 14th. I knew something was wrong as I had gotten a 7.5 before and I was sure that my performance was better than a 6.5. I paid the EOR fee the same day but did not get a notification later on. My handwriting is not the best so that was my only concern. I really did not want to take this exam again.
I was able to read every single post on this thread while waiting and many others and this gave me hope. I remember vividly the sleepless nights but still managed to be positive. I prayed a lot. God was my comfort. So many success stories but also so many unchanged scores. Every case is different and it depends on how sure you are about your performance and also a bit of luck.
I did notice that my score was changed two days after I received the notification from BC that my score was changed.
A piece of advice, prepare well (identify your weaknesses and turn them into strengths), believe in yourself and if you are confident enough that the results posted do not show your real performance, give EOR a try. Pray for the best but prepare for the worst. I was already preparing to give another attempt on august while waiting but I’m glad that’s not going to happen.
Nothing worth having comes easy so keep fighting for your dreams! Failures makes us who we are but the attitude in which you respond to them is what makes a difference. Let’s go for more success stories!
New CRS score is 475.
