We should really find out how these lovely people were able to score so well. All we know at the moment is that Mansoor Ahmed and Navinesh Chad were studying by the book “Ace the IELTS”, and Herath Jayawardana (Band 7.5 ) was using our book “Target Band 7”. But we definitely need to know more!

We look forward to hearing from the winners their stories of how they prepared and studied, and what helped them achieve success in IELTS. Anything they wish to share will be posted on IELTS-Blog without delay, so everyone can use the same technique and get a better score in their own exam this month.

P.S. IELTS results competition runs every month, and everyone is welcome to participate. Learn how to enroll here.
