I spend a lot of time memorizing model answers given by some training schools/teachers, will that get me higher scores? Your solution is right at your door step get this opportunity and get your ietls certificate
Memorizing complete model answers does more harm than good, because if you try to reproduce them from memory in your exam, the examiner may spot that and you will be penalised. You can use vocabulary from high scoring model answers, sentence structures, ideas, etc – but you have to be able to write your own, original essays.
