Should you apply for an IELTS EOR?
Show Notes

In today's episode, Nick and I have one goal - to help you decide whether or not an IELTS EOR (Evaluation of Results) is a good idea or not. There are a number of factors that you should consider before deciding to pay for your test to be re-marked by a senior examiner. Trust me, the last thing that you want to do is throw good money after bad.   http://blog.myieltsclassroom.com/ielts-eor/

In this episode, we will answer the following questions:

  1. Do you want to pay up to a third of your test feed on asking for a remark?
  2. Do you have enough time to wait for the results of your IELTS EOR?
  3. Which parts of the test are worth asking for a remark and which aren't?
  4. How much does your current score need to increase by?
  5. How big is the difference between your highest and lowest scores?
  6. For speaking, how does your current score compare to previous tests or feedback from a well-qualified teacher?
  7. Where are NOT reasons to ask for an IELTS EOR for speaking?
  8. For writing, are you sure that you addressed the essay question in full?
  9. Have you considered your performance in Task 1? Although your essay is worth twice as much as the letter or report, you will still need to perform well in Task 1 to get a high score.
