IELTS TESTS

Re: IELTS TESTS
yes I am, but thats kinda odd its one my least favorite cities in the world.
But yes of course its a huge advantage, and at the same time it would be more reasonable to consider not being an English a disadvantage if I had the same level for the other modules but I am only stuck on the writing test, and every time I had to wait two extra weeks to get my score rechecked because I always get around 6 or 6.5 in the writing and 8.5 in speaking which is a huge difference.

Re: IELTS TESTS
Got my results online today and below are my scores:
L 8.5, R 7.5, S 8.0, W 8.0
Extremely pleased with the scores. English is not my first language but I have been living in the US for 9 years now. I was really nervous but got the scores I required. I needed 7 in each band. Best of luck to everyone who is waiting for the results.

Re: IELTS TESTS
Giri,
I appeared for the July 9th exam in USA and when I checked in online "results.ielts.org" it still shows results not available. Which link you are checking in to view the results.
Thanks.

Re: IELTS TESTS
Thats the exact link I used too. I wrote the exam in the US on 9th July. The result was available since last night. I checked the score around 1 AM and it was already there.

Re: IELTS TESTS
I needed an extra 5 points... which the IELTS gave me...... We have been trying for a visa fo 2 years.... the goal posts change all the time, so don't delay with anything.... my occupation was taken off the list for 10 months... which put us on hold big time... then as I had turned 40, I lost 5 points... hence the IELTS... anyway.... sold the house today.... its all falling in to place !!!!!... just waiting to hear from immigration to see if we get the visa?? where are you heading?
