IELTS Speaking Band 8.5 Mock Test with Feedback

I scored an 8 in the IELTS speaking section. Although I was worried about running out of things to say, the opposite actually happened. Time flew by, leaving me wanting more. Lesson learned: relax and enjoy the conversation without overthinking.

I feel like she just say what she memorized. There is no stress in the sentences. I know she speaks English well, but I wish she could speak more naturally.

I definitely agree!

I think most of the koreans who took the IELTS test are the ones who lived in an English countries and then proceed to their korean Universities and some of them studied in a foreign language there in Korea like from a native speaker

[@mr.serious5635]

Her pronunciation, grammar range and fluency are very good, almost flawless, the feedback at the end of the video shows that perfectly. But in all due respect, with the lexical resources that she demonstrates, getting a band 8.5 is rather impossible, maybe the judges have been going easy on the marking I don't know. I've taken the test not so long ago, I used the same range of vocabularies as she does here and got a 7 for lexical resources (I got an 8 in pronunciation and grammar, 7 in fluency) and I got an overall 7.5 in Speaking. I think the best score that she can get is 8.0 (not likely), nowhere near 8.5 in my opinion.

I like how she confidently said that she eats chocolates five time a month.

[@pronunciationworld]

I cannot imagine her score would be 8.5. You must be honest with the candidate and audience. In the real IELTS exam the examiner never gives such a score. Something went wrong.

[@kudratillokhikmatillaev292]

In my opinion, this isn't enough to get 8.5 in some cases Such as she only talked 1 minute and 10 seconds which may lead to lower score and also there is no eye contact But overall her performance is just good

[@faridakhonsohibovna5544]

Do you think that is it important to look straight to examiners eyes Namely is eye contact very necessary?

[@kudratillokhikmatillaev292]

@@faridakhonsohibovna5544 Actually, I can't say this is very significant! However If candidates speak like this, Examiners may think he or she isn't confident and also it may reduce naturalness and normality

[@dasa-cx6nm]

Wow, i think they gave a script to study cause i have never heard such complex and complicated Grammar & Vocabular. (Thats the compliment)

[@Leeyountae]

Her answers were too short so there needed to be lots of following questions. And most of her sentences were too simple and didn't use different patterns. I don't think she deserve ban 8.5 . band 7 or 7.5 is enough for her.

[@hengbetter954]

I like her speaking.

[@jamesli9380]

Guys as a native English IELTS teacher of 8-9 years now and having taught the full gamut of ability levels, trust me when I say this young lady would achieve somewhere in the range of 7.0, if we are being generous. Remember this is a mock up for cameras and also that the channel makers will inflate scores to get clicks. Even the examiner would struggle to get an 8! Edit...now having looked at the comments it really is bad to inflate scores like this, all its done is confuse the viewers on the channel or even anger them. Counter-productive.

[@LurdViktor]

I appreciate your feedback considering your acclaimed experience as an IELTS teacher I would appreciate if you give me/us tips or enlighten me on how to do better than what she’s done and also what do you reckon was her blotch

[@MacXpert74]

After watching a bunch of these videos, I would agree with your assessment. I also thought she should have received a score of around 7. Indeed this false scoring seems counter-productive or even a bit deceiving, giving language learners a false indication of what would be expected from them to reach this high level. I don't know if it's true that videos showing someone getting a high score gets them more clicks than someone getting a lower score. Personally I feel you would probably learn more from the mistakes of others rather than just seeing 'perfect' performances. EDIT: Looking at the scores in the thumbnails of other videos and how many views they have, I can't say there's any correlation between higher scores and more views. There are plenty of videos of people getting a low or medium score that do have many views. There are also people with high scores not getting as many views. But of course there are also videos with people getting a high score that did attract many viewers. There's no clear pattern as far as I can see though.

[@naturalspeakingworld3599]

Yes she deserves only 6.5. It is impossible to score 8.5 because she used actually several time and in 2nd part she seems to reading a script rather than naturally expressing her opinion.

[@dariashekhovskykh3474]

That's for sure 8.5. I was speaking at the same level on my IELTS exam, and I scored 8.5 as well
