How did they score so well?

It feels awesome to see some of our students among the winners. Hongzhi Ren (Band 8.5) and Asanka Ranasinghe (Band 7.5) used our writing correction service, Jagdish Kaur (Band 8) prepared for IELTS with our practice tests and Shahlo Tursun-Zade used the book ‘Ace the IELTS’ in her exam preparation.

We contacted all the winners and hopefully they will be able to share their best exam tips with everyone because learning from other students’ experience is a great shortcut!

If YOU got a high score in IELTS, no matter when – this month, last month, a few months ago – we want to hear from you! We would like to extend our warm invitation to everyone who is happy with their IELTS score. Take part in our IELTS results competition today, and share your IELTS tips when you win!
