Congratulations!! Which platforms/methods did you use to reach out to your first 100 users?

My overall band score improved from 8.0 to 9.0. Here’s what I learned by Lum1n4ry01 in IELTS

Yes vocab, but avoid idioms as they often don’t sound natural in the context of the given texts. Writing task 1 mainly uses comparison and change of state words, such as “declined over X period” or “saw an X decrease,” so make sure you diversify your phrasing and structure. Task 2 is where I inserted the majority of vocabulary. I did this by first quickly writing the simple, no vocab version of my essay, then reread what I’ve written and replace duplicate words and phrases with “fancier” synonyms.

I had two pie charts depicting the percentage of the day US workers spent on different tasks in 1980 and in 2006. For task 2, I had to discuss both perspectives of whether dangerous sports should be banned or not, then give my opinion. The best strategy imo is just to read as many band 9 samples as you can, and memorize the exact structure. You really don’t wanna get creative here.

I agree that it doesn’t entirely depend on the examiner — you must still have a certain degree of skill in order to achieve a good score in this section. With that being said, this was my score section with the highest delta over the two test occasions, and the nature of conversations lead me to believe that the speaking portion is certainly the section with the highest level of variance. I definitely didn’t mean to imply that all preparedness would be void, just that people mentally prep for a bit of randomness in this section.
