    It's so easy. I'm sure you'll pass it. The first thing I did was, they asked me to read something on the paper board. You'll read it 10 times or more for 2 mins. They'll see here about your speed in speaking.
    Then, they'll bring you to the other room with your co candidate for the final interview. The interviewer will just ask you about your hobbies blah blah. Then, let you speak with your co candidate. They are recording it With video haha then, they'll ask you also to listen to the recorder and ask a question after playing it. And see if you understand the question or not. Then that's it. Don't be nervous about it cuz it's only chicken. Even kids can understand the questions. When will you take your exam?

    I'll be taking the A1 too. My exam will be on August 11 & 13.
    So what are the IELTS reviewers that I found for? They were exams where you will explain graphs and reading comprehension about science. lol

    Thanks for making it sound easy. I will definitely pass it or I'll cry for the 16k wasted. :lol:

    Hello,

    If you are applying for a marriage/spousal visa, you have to take Life Skills which is different from what I took (academic).

    But as @Timmers always say, nobody fails the test, so you can do it. Good luck

    Basically, if you can post here on the forum and you are understood then you will have no problem with the English Test, I would say that the chances of you failing are zero, unless you faint in class :)

    I've been a part-time English-speaker since I was 6, yet my score was only B2. If I took the IELTS for a working visa then I failed.

    This October, they have raised the band from A1 to A2 if I remember it right?

    A1 for Fiancee/Spouse visa, B1 for ILR
