Re: IELTS score
My test is on 8 June and I hadn't given it much thought being a native speaker, but the more I read about this test, the more I see many native speakers not getting the 8 in all modules. Starting to get worried now!
Is it just the format of the test people are being surprised with or is the test itself very hard? It's odd that a test designed to test how good you are at being a native speaker is not identifying native speakers very well!

Re: IELTS score
The test is not difficult at all. I am still amazed that I only got a 7 in the reading. I have done more tested in reading at home since and get ALL the questions right ............. so don't get it. But I would say do some prep on the format of the test. I did about 15 mins a few days before the test. I was going to go for a remark but it was faster to just re-sit the test lol. I hope I get all 8's this time.
Good luck with your test..........let us know who you can on.

Re: IELTS score
Hi,
Could i just ask if there is anyone that as had a re-mark and if so how do we go about this? I have done this test 4 times now and failed by 0.5 each time but this time i failed on one that i had passed on all the other times so was wondering if it worth trying this way.
Any information would be a great help.
Cheers Shaun

I have applied for EOR in writing.Surprisingly i got the result within two weeks from the date i submitted for remark that too with 0.5 increase.I would suggest that anyone can go for remark in w/s since it may vary acc to evaluators thinking.
