Procedure of the test. The reading module is the second test you do on the test day. You are given a question booklet and an answer sheet. There is no time, unlike in the listening test, at the end to transfer answers so you have to write your answers directly onto the answer sheet. You are given 60 minutes for the test. The test instructions indicate how much time you should spend on each section of the test.
Focus on Academic Skills for IELTS is the ideal companion to Focus on IELTS Coursebook, providing further thematically-linked practice for each unit. It can also be used on its own for self-study or as a short intensive IELTS course.
Before the exam • Make sure you are familiar with the instructions for the different question types so you can quickly glance at the questions and know what to do. • Think about the type of situations you might come across living or studying in an English speaking country, such as someone asking for directions or talks on topics of general interest. • Listen to as wide a range of material as possible – English language television and radio, listening sites on the Internet and films and music are all great sources.
