Hi guys.
I did my first IELTS test and I scored 7.5,7,7,8 (L,R,W,S). I had only done one practice test and hadn't really studied for it. This time around I studied a little and did about 13 listening practice tests. Today I had the test and I have a feeling I might score a 7.5 again on the listening because I did not do one question and I did educated guesses in four multiple choice questions that ask you to choose one of seven alternatives. This time I am sure I will do better in the reading part because I finished in 40 minutes and did everything plus I even had time to go to the restroom. Also in the writing I did not write my tasks in capital letters like the last time and I used a lot of difficult words. I am not worried about speaking or writing but I am worried about listening. I live in America. I am giving as much information as I can. For some reason I am struggling in the listening part. When I did the IELTS practice tests I would make as many as 9 mistakes in a test or as little as 3. So to me is luck and how I feel that day with the listening.
