IELTS band scores hinge on specifics most study guides skip: what costs a band and what a Band 7 answer sounds like next to a Band 6. This guide covers both Academic and General Training, with mock exercises scored the way an examiner scores them, at the band level most test-takers are aiming for.
What’s inside:
– Full exam overview: Academic vs. General Training comparison, scoring explained, minimum bands for common purposes
– All 4 skill sections (Reading, Writing, Listening, Speaking) with band descriptors, common traps, and timing strategy
– Full mock exercises for every skill, including Academic and General Training reading passages and a complete listening transcript
– Band 7 model answers with examiner commentary for both writing tasks, not a Band 9 showcase that tells you nothing about your own realistic target
– A common errors section for every skill, showing exactly what costs a band
– A quick-reference section: band score table, timing cheat sheet, writing task checklist, discourse markers bank
