I concur. If your English ability is mere average or just a little above average it would be a herculean task to achieve Band 8, almost impossible. This is why E2 IELTS have a school (E2 Language) for people who have average or below average language skill. They would brush up those peoples level to above average first before tutoring them on actual IELTS skills
My Irish friend got 7 in speaking
How? Do not ask me, I have no clue.First time when I was doing my IELTS, I got 7 in writing
the next time I got 8. Guess what, my writing did not change, I would say it was exactly same style as before An 8 in writing is an incredible achievement. Nice one buddy.My Irish friend got 7 in speaking
First time when I was doing my IELTS, I got 7 in writing
In my first and only attempt I got a 7 in writing (while other modules were CLB 10) but i knew i did better; applied for remark and it got upgraded
Thanks, However, I could not understand where the difference was in the score hahahah
I did not change my style at all. I think that sometimes they are just scoring very harsh.I have done General only. My gf needs to do both. She already done General which was good. She needs to repeat the Academic. Even after re-evaluation they did not increase her writing to 7 from 6.5. Everything else she had on 7.5/8.5
Agreed. and also need to have some luck with the topic you get in writing and speaking. If its something you are familiar with you will have lots of points to make. I did this test twice and had a lower score the second time. Second time I was actually prepared more and was more serious. But the topics is writing and speaking were something I was not expecting.
That is a common misconception people have with the writing task. It’s not meant to test your knowledge of the topic. You can pretty much bullshit your way to a band 9 score with good grammar, accurate usage of lexical resources, coherent and fluid writing.
I has wrote bestest the essay in my test.
I have the same grades as yours, 7 in writing and CLB10 in the rest. I requested a remark on writing but didn't get an increase.
This is true to a large extent. The IELTS writing and speaking tests aren’t really a test of knowledge but a test of your language ability. Although it’s a good strategy to read wide or watch alot of high quality English documentaries/podcasts before the test as this can help with idea generation.
This actually makes me feel better.
So the applicant is a Feb 2020 AOR. He might have completed biometric even before the lockdown. There was some ADR's for him in late 2020. He mentions this in his FB post. So there was some movement with the applications since last year.
Compared to this March 2020 and Post March 2020 AOR Indian residents have always had it worse. VFS was closed for us on march 18 2020 and didn't open till last week of Feb 2021. After eligibility and medical, IRCC was not able to do anything to our application since it didn't have biometrics to work on the application.
Only after the submission of biometrics my criminality was completed. Security is not yet completed and medical is expired.
So I think applications will be processed based on biometrics submission date. Indian residents will be at the end of the queue when it comes to 2020 backlog. Just my analysis.
This post is a good development for sure. But with regards my case, Only when a Indian resident who has submitted biometrics post Feb 2021 gets ppr , it means I am very close.
When a Indian resident gets it everyone else would have already got it.
Just my thoughts on how I see this. Good development.
Ohh wow, i guess i was just luckyI have the same grades as yours, 7 in writing and CLB10 in the rest. I requested a remark on writing but didn't get an increase.
