IELTS Test Results competition

This is how Oluwaseun increased his IELTS score from Band 6 to 7.5

Everyone, meet Oluwaseun – a young man from Nigeria who won in our IELTS results competition. He took IELTS 3 times and increased his writing score from Band 6 to 7.5. We asked Oluwaseun to share his best preparation tips – and he kindly replied.

“IELTS is a test, not a death sentence”, says Oluwaseun, and goes on to explain how his positive mindset and determination resulted in a substantial increase to his score.

“It’s my third IELTS. In the first attempt, I didn’t do well in Writing. I had just Band 6.0. So I had to retake it.

However, I had 7.5 and 7.0 in Writing in the second and third attempts respectively. The second was General, while the third was Academic.

I specially owe my success story in the last two attempts to the Writing Correction Service, which I stumbled upon while searching online for help. I followed as many of the instructions in the guide as I could. I subscribed to the Writing Correction Service and kept practicing on sample answer sheets, doing Writing Tasks 1 and 2. I’d turn them over to the team and get feedback from them. At times, my results were amazing, other times I got disappointed whenever the results came out otherwise. But I kept practicing more in such cases, and submitted my best response the next time.

I subscribed to IELTS-Blog on YouTube and four others for virtual learning, especially on Writing Task 1. This was very helpful.

My advice

  • Get your materials from a reputable blog or team like IELTS-Blog.com.
  • Practice hard, don’t be discouraged when your result turns out bad, but do more practice instead!
  • Know your weaknesses and adopt strategies for improving in those areas.

Stay hopeful!”

How did they score so well?

It is nice to see some of our students among the winners. Anshika Chawla (Band 7.5) used our book ‘Ace the IELTS’ to raise her writing score from Band 6 to 7. She said,

“I wanted to inform you that I have received my IELTS score (Listening 8, Reading 7, Writing 7, Speaking 7.5). I was particularly nervous about writing, so it was the best 7 of my life! Thank you so much for your guidance and books. Essay correction service and sample essays helped me to achieve my desired score.”

Another success story is that of Ambali Oluwaseun – he, too, used our writing correction service and achieved Band 7 in Writing.

The winners of this competition have achieved more than just a good score in IELTS. They became our role models of positive thinking, of maintaining hope and persevering when things weren’t looking great. They remained persistent and strong, and we can all learn that from them.

We would love to hear from our winners, because anything that helped them achieve success in IELTS, can help YOU, too! Their advice, as soon as we get it, will be posted on IELTS-Blog without delay, so everyone can use the same technique and get a better score in their own exam.
