@all, i finally got my ielts result today. L(8.5) R(9.0) W(7) S(6.5) Overall Band Score 8.0. Big disappointment cos it is not useful for its intended purpose. I need all bands to be a minimum of 7.0. The good part is that i don't need it until about 6 months time so i'm currently weighing my options. I think the poor Speaking score might be down to my relatively short prep time, under 3 weeks and i was busy with other things at the same time. Now i have a better idea what Ferdimako was going thru all this while. |

ewagbamio: You have a commendable result at first attempt despite short period of preparation. In fact, you got good band in the modules others consider very tough to pass. You need to practice both your speaking and writing well so as to achieve good band in them. As a matter of fact, they are the easiest modules to pass but you need to master the skills. Take a look at some of the links below: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wpZa7bah4_c1-4 http://www.youtube.com/watch?NR=1&feature=endscreen&v=bbSYgRpS0ZE http://www.ielts-exam.net/index.php?option=com_content&task=category§ionid=12&id=25&Itemid=40 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uRzrbmfeFcQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrKR_VXcmgY&NR=1&feature=endscreen https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WTjOM3qtS_I https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OLWVFKdsW0c http://www.goodluckielts.com/2-1-3-IELTS_reading_tips.html 1 Like 1 Share |

ewagbamio: Why don't you apply for remarking of the speaking section since it is subjective? |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by mrnilobrawn: 6:51am On Apr 14, 2015 |
ewagbamio: oknee:Exactly my thought. That will definately raise that S6.5 to S7.0+ |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by Tyrexx: 8:03am On Apr 14, 2015 |
@ewagbamio, I wouldn't advise you to apply for a remark because it is a complete waste of time and money. Ielts have a reputation to protect and they wouldn't want to jeopardise it. I have experienced similar issue. I had L 7, R 7, W 6.5, S 7 in general test and L 7.5, R 7, W 6.5, S 9 in academic test, I applied for a remark for both results and the outcome was unchanged. I had to take the exam again then I had L 7.5, R 7, W 7, S 7. Ielts is an exam of luck. You need to work hard on your writing and speaking. Speaking is quite easy. Best of luck |

Have also seen some1 that apply for remark and the outcome was more positive than. Well like u said, its a game of luck Tyrexx: |

MisterNRC: @mrnilobrawn please is it true nigerians cannot use immiaccount online to apply for a visa. I have filled out my app and about to submit but someone mentioned nigerians can only use teleperformance? |
Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by Nobody: 9:49am On Apr 14, 2015 |
@all, thanks for your kind responses. I actually plan to apply for a remarking today but the problem is they gave no indication as to how long it takes to get a response after the remarking. I hv made up my mind, I'll certainly apply for remarking. Will keep the house updated on the outcome 1 Like |

Mrnilobrawn, this your links are really eye opening. They are also shaking my resolve but I will still apply for it. I have set my hand on the plow....... Can one apply for remarking and apply to sit another test at the same time? |

ewagbamio: This was exactly my score, except that my R and L were flipped. You really tried. i somehow feel they are doing this on purpose. I have decided to do PTE, these BC guys are just milking us Nigerians. I recommend u do the same |

Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by Nobody: 12:23pm On Apr 14, 2015 |

chase123:You are putting the cart before the horse and it has cost u a transcript money and struggle. If u had read back, u would have seen where I was harping on how to get a transcript especially when ur Alma mater does not give by hand and ur assessing authority doesn't accept from ur school. You need to improve on the language as a teacher, if u intend to teach in Oz and to pass the English test. |

Re: General Australian Visa Enquiries by oknee: 1:02pm On Apr 14, 2015 |
ewagbamio: Remarking depends on how confident you are with what you wrote. Speaking and writing are both subjective so it can probably increase. Someone, I think in this forum, was very confident that his score in writing was low while other bands were from 8. He applied for remarking and the writing score increased from 7 to 8. Yes, you can register for another exam while you await the outcome of the re evaluation. |
