My native language is English. I bought ielts practice papers with cd's and downloaded them to my iPod and practiced everyday for 3 weeks. I also did a mock exam to check my progress. I still felt like I had failed until the results came in. I found the worst thing to do was to look at past examples of essays as these are not a reality essay that everyone can write. All you need to do to get a 9 in essays is concentrate more on fluency of sentances and less on academic words. This reads much better. Hope this helps

Hi, I found 'ace the IELTS' a great help. It give some sound advice. In the listening you will listen to people talking ona cd and you need to answer questions which you will have infront of you, they are a mixture of multiple choice and missing answers. There are 40 questions to answer, the test lasts about 30 minutes. The reading has about four different subjects with 40 questions to answer in 40 minutes. I found it easier to underline the main points then answer the questions. If you practice it does get easier. I promise. The questions do get harder, and they try and trick you. Try a few different practice tests. I used to practice the academic reading, if you can do them then you will ace the general. Good luck
hi irene, do u still have the "ace for ielts" i will be taking the exam this Dec 3. I was wondering if you would be willing to sell it and how much??
