Out of interest, how are you preparing for the exam when studying on your own?

Hello Tdol
I don't know if you get what I meant or not. Anyway, I enrolled in a course of preparation for IELTS, so I'm studying by myself using the materials I have. What's wrong with this?

I have taken the IELTS test. 6.5 overall. It is not quite high; but it is enough for me.

Good luck.

Congratulations!! that's very good, I know what it means to have 6.5 because it's never easy.

I'm also planning to take an IELTS examination in next few months, maybe in Dec this year. But due to my laziness, I haven't taken actions to prepare the examination. In order to achieve my dream, I have to get two 7 of the four parts, it's a tough task for me
Hope having chance to communicate with you guys here to share any information of preparing IELTS.

Hello hello
I'm glad you're planning to take the exam at December as it's the same here. To get 7 you really have to prepare from now. You may find some courses at your place, if not you can find online courses too.
All the best
keep in touch.

Hi Sara, thanks for your kind reminder. Actually I have already collected more than enough learning materials, including books, PDF & mp3 as well as lots of websites. All the rest I have to do is to make a long-term to-do list and take actions immediately

BTW, is it feasible for us to chat on MSN or other instant messenger like that? I think it's a good way to practice English.
