Omg! This is totally inspiring!!!! I can’t wait to give this testimony!!!! This is the exact result I’m hoping for! My first time as well and I’m writing next month. Any tips please?

I practiced on YouTube. Mostly listening tests. Any video suggestion with "Very Hard", "Extremely Difficult" etc attached to it, I clicked and practiced. Aim to get 36 and above and you will be fine. I practiced sample reading tests too. There are answers at the end of each video. I usually go back to see the questions I missed and note my errors. I don't just mark and move on. Also, download the app on your phone. You have samples there too. It was even on the day of the test that I tried working with the free samples on ielts app. All my work was from YouTube. I'm sure you've heard about Liz and Jay. I watched their videos and wrote down notes.

Congratulations! However, I am willing to bet you didn't write your IELTS in Nigeria. If you had written it here, you would have had 997.56 just so they can get another £170 from you. Correct me if I'm wrong and you actually wrote it in Nigeria.

I actually wrote mine once too.
Practiced for only one week. Less than the period BrokenVessels spent preping.
I got LRWS 9, 9, 7.5, 7.5

So I can tell you it's possible in Nigeria.

I think that's it....we have to wait. I just researched and found out.

Yeah...
It is well.

You can't enter the pool without the TRF for IELTS or the reference number for the ECA. You can start filling out your EE application, but you can't submit it (enter the pool) without the ECA.

This journey teaches you patience. CC @princekins.

Thanks!

Please gurus in the house, can I enter the pool while waiting for ECA? It's suppose to be due July 1st and they told me to wait for a while, max is 20weeks((12th Aug).

I also need an answer to this. ECA is delaying and I wanted to know if I could enter the pool and probably get ECA report while waiting to submit application in the 60 day period. But I also saw that I have to fill ECA certificate number and exact date of ECA which I guess will be part of the report...before i submit my profile for the pool. Any help here pls?
