I got my IELTS results. I thought I failed the exam because I got 7.0 in the overall score. But when I searched the passing grade in the internet, 7.0 was not a bad score afterall. For immigrant doctors (i.e. Britain and Aussie), IELTS grade should be 7.0 in overall grade and a grade of 7.0 in speaking. In New Zealand, an IELTS score of 6.5 overall is acceptable. I got a grade of 6.5 in listening but luckily I got a grade of 7.5 in reading. I did not take any review workshops but I did review on my own. Now I can apply for work in abroad hopefully.
The listening part of the IELTS exam, for me, was the difficult part, because of the British accent. And you should learn to decipher what is needed for you to answer. You should not forget the little details such as the dollar signs or decimal parts. There are tricky questions also which I think requires comprehension and anticipation. The speaking part is the most nerve breaking situation I had ever been. Some of the questions were easy, yet some were not too coherent for me, meaning the chronological questioning of the interviewer was not good. Or perhaps, I'm not that good in speaking after all(?!?). Reading and Writing parts were the least difficult. I'm not saying they were easy but you're given time to manage your time and answer each questions with precaution and decisiveness.
Anyways, it is good that I had my IELTS exam. It gave me a sense of fullfillment that I can be effective in speaking and writing in English. :)
