Many candidates enter the IELTS exam being very unprepared. In my experience, many candidates do not achieve the score they need not due to their language ability but due to a lack of understanding of the requirements of the test. As teachers, it is our job to make them fully aware of the standard required and skills that they will need.
I met a native speaker recently who received a 6.5 for the reading test simply because he had no idea of what to expect and the time limitations. There are simple ways that we can make sure the candidates do not waste their time and money by taking the test before they are properly prepared and know what to expect.
Simple mistakes like not fully answering the question in Writing Task Two can seriously affect their overall scores. It is a mistake for a candidate to think that because they are good at English they will automatically receive the highest scores.
