IELTS exam in Pakistan – February 2009 (General Training)

This short update was brought to me by M who sat IELTS in Pakistan, many thanks.

Listening test

This module was excellent and quite easy.

Reading test

Don’t remember the topics, but in general it felt very, very tough.

Writing test

Writing task 1 (letter)
Write a letter to a local NGO (charity organization) and ask how you can join that organization.

Writing task 2 (essay)
Some people think that fast food is changing our eating and social habits. Discuss, what is your opinion.

Speaking test

I felt relaxed during my speaking session, but a strange thing happened: for some reason my examiner was in a hurry and never let me finish my explanations. It confused me and I hope that my performance didn’t suffer. In the cue card section I don’t think they even gave me a full minute.

Cue card
Describe a TV or a radio program that you talk about most of the time with your friends or family

Discussion
The questions were about electronic media
