3. Increase your personal speed
In the IELTS test, time is your enemy. Candidates who have taken the testand did not perform as well as they had hoped often complain that they wereunable to give all the answers in the Listening Test because the tape was toofast, and that they ran out of time in the Reading Test. To begin with, do notworry if you do not finish the tests. Your personal speed is not something which changes a great deal from day-to-day, but does change considerably over a longer period of time, as a direct result of practice inworking with the English language. The more effort you put in, the faster your personal speed will be on the day.
