On behalf of the whole IELTS-Blog team I would like to congratulate our winners. You all have done amazingly well, and your example is an inspiration for many other test-takers out there, working their way through IELTS materials right now.

According to our tradition, the winners’ special certificates are being sent to their emails, and their names are joining the IELTS-Blog hall of fame.

And now is the time to ask the BIG QUESTION: how did they do it? This is a question that I hope to get the answer to from our winners. All I know at this stage that most of them were using the resources from www.IELTS-Blog.com, some signed up for our free IELTS course, and that Imran Merchant used my book “Ace the IELTS” in his preparation.

Dear winners, please share the methods of preparation that enabled you to achieve these remarkable scores. Email me to simone[at]IELTS-Blog.com today, and we will pass your advice on to everyone tomorrow!
