IELTS: about the exam
+ tips on READING part
Make the most of your Reading test:
⛳look out for the title, headings and any special features such as capital letters, underlining, italics, figures, graphs and tables
⛳make sure that you understand the questions and follow instructions carefully
⛳pay attention to timing; do not spend too long on one passage or question
⛳do not try and read every word; remember, you are reading for a purpose
⛳if you do not know the answer to a question, attempt it but do not waste time; move quickly onto the next one
⛳do not panic if you do not know anything about the subject of the text; all the answers can be found in the text
⛳the word(s) you use must be taken from the Reading text; you must not change the form of the word(s) in the text
⛳do not worry if there is a word that you do not understand – you may not need to use it
⛳check your spelling
⛳be careful to use singular and plural correctly
⛳focus precisely on what you are asked to do in ‘completion’ type questions
⛳if the question asks you to complete the note ‘in the…’ and the correct answer is ‘evening’, just use ‘evening’ as your answer; note that ‘in the evening’ would be incorrect
⛳pay attention to the word limit; for example, if you are asked to complete a sentence using no more than two words if the correct answer is ‘silk shirt’, the answer ‘shirt made of silk’ would be incorrect
⛳attempt all questions; there are no penalties for incorrect answers, so you have nothing to lose
⛳check your answers
