OJaySeenson:
Bros, if E sure you, put your POF, make I post my IELTS results for here. Only kidding on that, but you need to realise there is more than one way to skin a cat (or something like that)...so as weird (or untrue) as it sounds to you, I am proof that it works.

Pls lemme hold the POF for una * runs away*

Guys please don't be angry for the long post but this are trying times for me as well as "matters of the heart" concerning me and IELTS and they said "a problem shared is a problem solved"

I keep getting 7.5 on listening and 6.5 on reading even though I read/practice/prepare as if I'm going for MBBS exam. My practice score for both listening and reading are most often within the range of 38- 40 but "I still dey gbagaun for the actual test " dunno y

Here is list of things I think might I be doing wrong when it comes it to the listening section:
i. I write all my ans in caps.
ii. I go back to correct the tenses and more often change from singular to plural and vice versa as the sentence required.
iii. In the last test I took; the question required you answers be written in two words and a number; the speaker called out a date of birth as "22nd the 7th 1985" and I wrote "twenty-second July 1985" was I correct? cos i'm thinking this contributed to my downfall and wouldn't want to fail such a question ever in my life.

In reading, I knew my weakness was T/F/NG; Y/N/NG and matching heading so I took out time to practice question on this alone until I started acing it consistently yet "I still enter 6.5 bus" aside this I can't point a finger to what could be wrong with the reading section.

I planned on taking the next available test as "e dey hot" but on reading canadianfly's write up, I had to take a second guess cos she really made a good point; but my problem could not be practice as I invest good time in it.

Lastly, could it be BC

You know sometimes I think we try too hard for my answer I wrote 22/7/1985( standard way to fill Dob on any form). I came across a question like this during my practice n that was the way the answer was written. I just adopted that straight. As for reading try e2language with Jay. He breaks it down really good, had 5.5 in my first test n 7.5 now.
Pls relax n practice e no easy but we no get choice. Kindly accept my 2cents.
Regards.

[quote author=sleekchic post=63248050]Hello All,

I just need to vent for a second. I am preparing for IELTS in January and I am finding listening practice test rather challenging. I have done over 40 tests on YouTube. My issue is that I don't even know which ones are real because when I do the ones posted by some channels I rarely get higher than 34, they are wickedly difficult but when I do the ones by some other channels I always get 39 or 40 and I feel they are too easy. It's confusing, how do I know which ones are real? They all have similar patterns and voice recordings.
I really need to improve my listening. My husband that I am the one that tells him what they say in Oyinbo films(he doesn't hear their accent) is even getting higher scores in d
practice tests. Any tips Pls helep. [/quote

Thought I was the only one..... Hubby scored 8.5 in Listening and he practiced just twice before the exam . I tire ooooo n I go write for January .
The Lord is my helper.
