Thanks to our generous subscriber TS from Sri Lanka, today we are sharing the writing questions she remembered from a recent IELTS exam.
Preparation Tip: Make sure to write your own essay and report under timed conditions, spending no more than an hour in total on both Writing Task 1 and Task 2. Simulating real exam conditions will help you get better at time management and perform well under pressure. Happy studying!
