450 is cool o. since I am not rushing I can opt for something similar. However, is there anyway I can check online? cos the one I saw online was Ems speed post and it will cost about 10.5k, according to the website . in addition, I just checked the Finland cost too.. it will be about 8.5k. please from which state did you send?

I used Nipost and I send It from Osun State. EMS and dhl are very cost because they are effective, you can't compare It with Nipost.

I wrote the Academic version of the test last month, and I got the following scores:
Listening-8.5
Reading-8.5
Writing-8
Speaking-7.5
Overall-8
IELTS looks daunting before preparation, especially the writing aspect, graphs and all. However, as I came to realize, with ample preparation, the test is quite easy.
Ensure you practice all aspects under EXAM CONDITIONS a minimum of 7 times. .the real exam won't be strange at all
That was my 1st attempt by the way
If you need tips and pointers, I'd be happy to share waht worked for me

Getting to Ibadan, find your way to CUSTOMS on Bodija-Secretariat Road. Check-Inn is adjacent to the MTN district office. .you can't miss it
Get there at least an hour before the test.
Your biometrics will be taken before you go in for the interview, which lasts for about 5 minutes
Don't be nervous or apprehensive. ..be natural. Don't answer questions with 'yes' or' no'' ...expand and KEEP ON TALKING UNTIL YOU'RE STOPPED. The examiner really just wants to find out if you can understand and converse in English to a satisfactory level.
Answer the questions asked and don't go off-topic. Feel free to be creative and imaginative while talking. ..ot makes the interview less boring, and the examiner is likely to give you better marks.
The speaking test is divided into 3 parts..
part 1-Examiner asks you personal questions: name, schooling/studies, home, growing up, hobbies, work, etc.
Try to practice over these areas, as they'll surely come up. When asked about hobbies, for example, it is not enough to say 'football' and stop. Explain why you like football, how often you play it, your favorite teams, etc UNTIL YOU'RE STOPPED.
Part 2-A topic is given to you to talk about for about 2 minutes. Uou have a minute to jot notes on what to say...make use of this time and marshall your thoughts together. ..it is very easy to start and get stuck on the way. Again, keep on talking UNTIL YOU'RE STOPPED.
Part 3 builds on 2 , but more abstract questions that require reasoning are asked. Give yourself a second or two to process the answer before speaking. ..always try ro answer the questions and not say something unconnected in a bid to keep talking. The examiner will think you don't understand English and mark you down.
This part is generally fast as salvos of questions are fired at you.
The test is over before you know it, and you leave the room.
All the best

Due to some Whatsapp issues, I'll answer any questions on tips on this thread.

Hello everyone, just wanted to share my IELTS experience.

I was faced with a choice of seeking admission with very little time to prepare for the IELTS Exams. As a matter of fact, I had just 13 days for my prep. A friend therefore recommended two websites for me to use to prepare.

So, for Writing, I used www.ieltsryan.com and also watched his Youtube Videos and interviews with successful test takers.

And I used www.ieltsliz.com for the Reading, Speaking and Listening prep.

My results were as follows:

Reading 7.0
Writing 7.0
Speaking 8.0
Listening 8.5

Overall 7.5

Wish everyone the best.

Reading-32/40

The important thing is to know why you missed the answers in your practice and go over it again

the listening should be your strength. I kept practicing till I was able to make 39-40.. minimum of 35. then I knew my least possible score was 8/9. I made 8.5 for the test.
for the reading, the true or false questions are usually tricky. my practice tests, I scored between 30-35.. sometime I scored 27.. and it affected my preparation. for the exam, I made 7.0
as for the speaking, ... I made 7. no special practice but I kept the picture of the examiner in my head and on that day it was like I have been there before. you can see videos on YouTube.
writing was 6.5. I trashed task 1 well but task 2 was a topic I had no idea on.. but I fulfilled task requirements of over 250 words.
just keep practicing and be familiar with all question type. put your best on exam day.. the pattern will come.
