Thank you!

Congrats bro! U na scholar oo

Good morning everyone.

I am so grateful to God. I am finally done with IELTS.

1st attempt 17th August, 2019 - LRWS- 7.5, 9, 6.5, 6.5

When I saw the result, I was so angry and moody all through that day. However, the next day, I woke up, encouraged myself and decided to rewrite the test on the next available date (7th Sept), which was just one week away (Thank God I made the decision).
I realized I needed help, so I contacted @ johnnybravo to assist with my writing. He agreed and we had one week intensive coaching on writing, while i was also seriously practicing the other components as well. He also gave me tips on Listening.

2nd attempt 7th September, 2019- LRWS- 8.5, 9, 7.5, 7.5 (all maxed out)

MY ADVICE

Listening- Practice hard and listen attentively. Infact, listen like your life depends on it. Look out for your weak areas and focus on them till you conquer.

Reading-Practice, focus on your weak areas. try and get the 'tricks' behind answering correctly.

Writing- Please, please and please, if you are stuck on 6.5, look for someone to review your scripts. It will save you the money you will spend rewriting the test. I recommend @ johnnybravo1990, he is really thorough, detailed and also friendly.

Speaking-i made the mistake of trying to over-impress in my first test. My advise here is to keep it simple. Just talk as if you are with a friend. you dont need impress. Keep talking until you are told to stop.


I have learnt so much from this thread and I want to appreciate everybody.
Thank you @ cookeed (for taking out time to share your tips with me) @ johnnybravo (the intensive coaching really paid off) @ladymarshall @ jjohndoe83 and to everyone who keep contributing one way or the other to this thread.

All Glory to God!

You wont miss the next one in Jesus name.

Chai...I missed the draw 2 weeks ago by 1 point, now I missed yesterday’s draw cos of tie-break... it is well o, hopeful about the next draw...ordinary ITA and I am this impatient, what will now happen when I apply lol... congrats to all those who recieved theirs yesterday

topacs:
Same thing i used, i paid 4k for it, could it be it was missing in transit..Do i wait a little or just send another via Fedex..

I paid 4k too...Looks like its lost o, cos it should have gotten there by now. When I wasn't too sure about it then, I came here to ask questions on the NIPOST thing but didn't get any positive response. so in order to have peace of mind I resent it through DHL in May ( N16, 500, student price). But as God would have it, I received their AOR in June, meaning they got the one I sent through NIPOST

topacs:
Thanks I did call them and they confirmed that every other documents sent via DHL and FedEx has been received, but they cannot go ahead with assessment except they get the signed application to file and that was the document I sent using NIPOST on the 22 of march. And IQAS is currently opening documents for April 22nd..

I guess that means they didn't receive it. Was yours registered? I used registered mail with NIPOST

topacs:
Hi bro, have you gotten AOR from IQAS as regards the documents you sent to them via NIPOST, if yes please how long did it take...Am in same fix right now..Sent documents to IQAS since 22Mar..and am yet to hear anything from them..tnx.

yes I got an AOR from then June 22.
if you haven't gotten a mail from them, I think you should call them to find out why.

jjohndoe83:
ITA in the bag...

Wow! Big congrats!! i sent you a PM. i will appreciate your response.

Thanks.

Dear Colleague,

Please what number did you use ? Mine was delivered 1st of February, 2019 but no response till now. I've been trying to reach them for a week now with these numbers +1866927057, +17804272655 I got from their website but not reachable. kindly provide the number you called them with if its different from these one.

I called +17804272655. please note that they are 7 hours behind us so you can only reach them from 4.30pm Nigerian time. so i recommend you start calling from 4.30pm.

jjohndoe83:
For an activity driven dude like me, I'm just getting impatient with IQAS. I hate it that I can't seem to do anything. Its 81 days since my documents arrived there and no response. Although current trends suggests that I'll be attended to in the next 20/30 days, I'm just not having all of that. Plus having my IELTS in the bag is making it worse.

I called them yesterday and I was attended to by an apology of a customer care agent. I immediately moved to twitter to send the Government of Alberta (my future Government) a DM. I also sent IQAS mails.

My mind is already putting together a back up plan with WES, I'm thinking of going the 2 or more certificate way, my LLB and Law School but the money no be here, plus I'll lose points (454 to 447)which means soon-to-be Mrs A would have to write IELTS (another 68k).

I'm not even as agitated about my wedding that cojes up in 16 days time, as I am about IQAS. This Canada just has to be worth it. The city of Calgary is blessed for my sake! The legal services industry is blessed for me!

That we shall succeed is as sure as God reigns!

#AfternoonRant.

I called IQAS last week to ask concerning my application and i was told they are currently opening applications received in January. Patience remains key on this journey...it will end in praise.
