I have applied on 26th September and got confirmation from idp on 29th September.
Can you tell me if you got the confirmation from idp after couple of days?
Confirmation that documents are under consideration? I actually didn't get any such confirmation. I called them on few occasions and they said wait till 24th OCT however the result came early in around 3 weeks.

Sorry for so many questions.
I have 1 last for you.
Were you confident enough that you will get 7 in writing or you just tried your luck :)

It is quite alright. Actually I didn't expect it to change. I had prepared for two weeks only and gave very little attention to writing. When I started writing, I ended up spending around 30 minutes on the letter and then 12 mins on planning the essay. I had literally no time to write the essay. I wrote the last two paragraphs in last 5 minutes and couldn't correct my mistakes even though I knew I was making silly grammar mistakes because writing conclusion was more important than the correction of one paragraph. I had not got my practice essays remarked so I had no idea what band I'll get but I expected 6 or 6.5. I gave it up for EOR just in case with no hopes. Now even though I have reached CLB 9 I still think it's not enough for EE.

I have applied for EOR with British council India. Got EOR confirmation message today. It says 4 weeks for result.

LRWS 9/9/7/7.5 currently at 438. Need .5 more in writing to make it 441.

Not very hopeful. Almost all success stories are of people getting increase from 6.5 to 7 in writing or speaking.

Previous attempt: LRWS 8.5/8.5/7.5/7 applied EOR for speaking to increase to 7.5, but score didn't change.

Anybody had their original score of 7 in writing or speaking got increased to 7.5 ?

In all likelihood next draw should be less then 440.

My suggestion to everyone is that please do not worry about 2 points difference fake theory, Do apply for remark if you are confident about your performance.

Best of luck to all

I appeared for Computer delivered IELTS from Mumbai on 12th October and got my result as below :

L - 8 R - 7.5, S - 7 W - 6.5
Should I go for remarking? are there any positive cases of remarking in computer delivered ielts?

In m last 5 attempts I have got 7 in writing module but this time I got 6.5 when in rest of the modules I got the desired bands, so I feel I should get my writing paper checked. Please through some light if anyone is familiar with remarking for computer delivered tests.

Thanks in advance.

My brother and I applied for GT-IELTS BC (Karachi, Pakistan) on 29-Sep-2018. He got L/R/W/S 9/8.5/6.5/6.5 and I got 8/7/6.5/7, and after receiving the results on 12-Oct-2018 my brother submitted EOR for both of TRF's on 15-Oct-2018. After applying for EOR he received EOR acknowledgment email on 18-Oct-2018 but I haven't received any acknowledgment till now. I sent an email BC to inquire about it, that is there any issue? I haven't got any E-mail!, so they replied me on Friday (19-Oct-2018) that EOR acknowledgment email is sent within a week, so wait for that time period.

My Question is if both of us applied from the same bank, and TRF are sent on the same date, so how come he received the E-mail and I didn't?
Is this normal that they delay the EOR acknowledgment, and I am being impatient!?

If anyone else faced a similar experience? Please guide as this is the first time I applied for EOR!
