Howdy, dudes and dudettes! Well, I've come here to share my experience on my band 8.0 IELTS score!

The name's Henry. I'm 24 years old and I'm currently an English Professor at the Universidad Católica de Santiago de Guayaquil in Ecuador (South America).

First of all, I had no idea such exam existed until I found out about it doing some research on admission requirements for English-speaking universities. This was some 2 months ago and I think I heard it from someone that the IELTS examination couldn't be set in Ecuador but in Colombia. Good thing I did lots of research and I found an examination center in my city!

In the placement test, I got a listening from the Cambridge IELTS 5 book (I would later discover this when I downloaded the book from this very site), some stupid writing (General) about a letter to a bank and a very challenging Reading part. Turns out some days later I found out they told me I got a band between 5 and 6 in overall! I was shocked!

I started looking for a lot of sites that would give me the right material to start practicing and I found this one. I downloaded the Cambridge IELTS 5 book with the listenings and did the whole 4 practice tests in about 1 or 2 weeks. I was very dedicated and I don't remember any other time when I did such thorough studying, let alone English.

I was a bit nervous the days before taking the exam. Then, on the examination date (October 8th, 2009), I tried to feel more relaxed. I said to myself that I had practiced long and hard, so I did feel more relieved.

The listenings were about a guy booking some place at an IT fair, the second one I don't remember and the third one was about the Australian Quarantine Service, where a woman explained things that can be brought into Australia, passing through Customs at the airport. There was a fourth one of course and I think it was about some rare animal I don't remember. It was a kind of shell or somethin.

I found the readings appealing and they indeed had some degree of difficulty, although I did my best and understood most of them. I just remember two of them: the Xhosa people in South Africa and the other one was about how babies can learn things using symbology.

The writing was quite simple, IMHO: the first task was to interpret a graph that showed preferences of boys and girls in Australia regarding to sports. I think I made a little mistake when I wrote "The fact that women prefer aerobics rather than football might be explained since they like more stylish and delicate disciplines", so I guess that part lowered my grade a bit because it was most likely slightly biased. The second writing task was writing an essay about "Do you agree that certain languages die out every year?" So I wrote quite a bit about that...I enjoyed it, actually.

Then the Speaking came. They took longer than the others to call me and I was a little angry, but I just said to them: "I would appreciate that you told me when it'll be my turn" and they replied: "Don't worry, it'll be very soon". I can say I wasn't nervous. As I suspected, they asked me a few things about myself (my bedroom, what do I do in it, to describe my family and my house) then they started on the topic of advertising in my country. The female examiner asked me my views on it (I said 'there's an excess...bla bla bla...) and that was it. I spoke at a good pace, making very very little mistakes, my pronunciation was swift, but I thought I had done badly. However...

...in total, I got:

Speaking: 8.5
Listening: 7.5
Writing: 8.0
Reading: 8.0

Overall: 8.0

Hope this experience helps you guys somehow!
