Format - If it’s the first time you attempt to pass IELTS, you better learn the structure. Knowing how much time you have for each section and how each part should be handled is needed to pass the exam successfully.
Tutor or Not - Recognize whether you need a tutor. Instead of spending these ten days struggling to do it yourself, you might want to consider getting some outside help.
Writing - Start with the writing tasks. Sometimes even native speakers have trouble when it comes to writing. However, you can learn and practice.
Listening - Shift your focus to listening. Watch TED talks and listen to podcasts and songs. Pay attention to the word, intonation, pauses, and repetitions used.
Reading - Prepare for the reading section of the exam. You may find that part more manageable than the previous one. But the point is that you have to read long passages and answer within the time limit.
Speaking - For many students, this section is the trickiest. Because of the anxiety and overall stress, talking to an examiner can become an almost impossible challenge.
Analysis - To end the study week on a high note, you must analyze your progress. Evaluate how far you have progressed in learning the content and format of the test.
Focus - Concentrate on developing the skills you lack. You need to devote the day solely to working on these general skills.
Practice - Practice makes perfect, so don't shy away from the most apparent dip you'll ever get. If you want to pass IELTS, you need to practice each task multiple times.
Reflect - You should devote the last day of preparation to reviewing and evaluating your knowledge. Make sure you are aware of what you know and that you have a strategy.
