GUYS, we should practice as much as possible but do not underestimate yourselves by just judging your results based on this youttube channel, THEY ARE NOT 100% ACCURATE. there're a lot of mistakes thoughtout all the videos, such as mistakes in spelling on the questions and answers, also errs on the right options. everybody should definitely practice as much as possible using different approaches and videos, websites, etc. additionally 25 is already a good mark! do not worry, the IELTS is already super hard even for some native speakers, notwithstanding we should aim band 9 and 40 correct answers, but if you got 25, that's ok! the most important thing is you already know English, you just have to improve it, go abroad perhaps!... furthermore, this listening part of IELTS is quite UNFAIR for sure !!!

[@ahsanjamil9497]

I got 25. This test is not so difficult but 2nd part was so confusing so, that's why I got less marks.If anybody who got 25 above they might get high band score in real exam so don't worry guys I hope all students would get high band score.

love barks was the first poem to be published, so answer for 14 should be love barks and not be kind. as nowhere in question is it mentioned if it was pubished for a school or a competition

Need to know whether we have to write answers in first letter capital pr not?? Does it impact on score?

[@talestrailsandme8617]

The best way to write the answer is to write all letters in capital which leads to zero chances of writing it wrong. If you write first letter capital and other small then you have to be cautious for other things too. For ex: Mr. Brown has 2 letters capital, if you write Mr. brown, it will be wrong. So better go for all letters in capital.
