tips on ielts reading
start your exam paper from passage 3, as this has proven to be an academic session, spend 20-25 mins on this passage then build up to passage 2 and 1 respectively. this method will help u avoid the last minute rush envisaged in passage 3 during the last 20 mins.
secondly, from personal experience, I practiced with ielts academics past questions and got myself acquainted with the iii, iv, vii, and yes, No and NG types of questions. by the time i handled the ieits general, it was a piece of cake.
hope this is helpful
