So sorry to hear that @Micky345 ! :( I am sure you will soon get the score you need. Just keep the faith, keep practising and sit for a re-test when you're ready. As @Emmemm07 says, you should not lose hope. I just received my re-mark results as well, and God willing, there was an improvement...

Sorry to hear that dude :( At least you will get the refund since your speaking score has been increased - and your re-mark did get resolved in a much more timely manner than most others on the thread. Wish you had managed the Writing score you wanted to achieve with the re-mark though, since I...

Wow @Knac12 ! It is really inspirational to hear of the timelines and final result for your wife’s re-mark request. Heartiest congratulations to her! I am in a similar situation with marks distribution (LRWS: 8.5, 9, 6.5 and 8) and am keeping my fingers tightly crossed for even a 0.5 increment...

Hi @dilipb, Tough luck on the Speaking score, and given your past results, a revaluation stands a high chance to help raise your marks. To answer your queries: I) No, your score can either go up or stay unchanged. There is no chance of a decreased score. II) You can collect your TFR from the...

Fingers crossed! Of course, the 10% success rate in EoR shouldn’t be taken as a reason to either apply, or not to apply for a revaluation, and the motivation to go in for a re-mark should depend on our individual circumstances. In my case, as I’m sure in yours too, I am confident I did well in...

Hi @MahaMM, Completely understand what you’re going through. For reference, my score is LRSW: 8.5,9,8,6.5 (overall 8) but as for many people, including yourself, Writing has been my nemesis in the IELTS :( I’ve already applied for a re-mark - I went to my centre first thing in the morning...

Makes sense and definitely improves your chances of getting a refund! Best of luck :)

Guess you too feel the same as I do about the Writing test. I have the same score and the same gut feeling that my performance was better than a 6.5. I would say, “Go for it!”. I paid a fee of Rs 3165 in Mauritius to get my paper rechecked (a lil under USD 100) and I’m fine if the score stays...

Fingers crossed for the re-mark! And yes, it is sad to hear yours didn’t go as expected :( I’m sure you’ll crack the April exam - best of luck :)

Hi @Valdogarcia , I'm sorry to hear the Writing score is standing in the way of your plans too! Completely agreed that it sucks to give all 4 sections all over again for want of a 0.5 increment in writing :( I have applied today through my local centre (British Council, Mauritius), but they...

Agreed! I’m also planning to apply for a remark - I have the same issue with my writing (6.5) while Reading 9, Listening 8.5 and Speaking 8 are all in line with expectations. If a 0.5 jump is all you need, it’s a good idea to apply for a remark in a subjective skill like writing. But bear in...

Hi @mehrshadg, I’m in the same boat as you! The writing test appears to have been a serious setback for many of us, from the looks of it :( I took my test through BC and will apply for a remark tomorrow itself. At the same time, given it could take upto 12 weeks for the EoR results to come...

Thanks @iamhammad! I’m thinking that if the EoR takes upto 12 weeks, it might make sense to take a retest as well. I’ll sit for my second IELTS in April first week, and get my revaluation results as well as new test results around the same time then ;) Keeping my fingers crossed this strategy...

Hi all, Really happy to hear of so many success stories with remarking! And sorry for those who applied but didn’t get an upward revision :( I just got my scores: LRSW: 8.5, 9, 8 and 6.5. I’m really disappointed with my writing score and never expected less than a 7.5 or a 7 at worst. Can...
