Very good what you advised as good way of delayong an anser as you have shown us the so called “filers”. I’d like to get some tests. My language is Spanish as I live in Argentina; but I like English and I have studied it for a long time.

Mr. Dy says
I took ielts twice, I’m a little bit frustrated because I got 6.5 on my speaking section with the same interviewer in IDP Philippines. I need a 7 band score. It’s funny how they tolerate to give me with the same examiner, knowing that she already familiarized my at the time of examination. I don’t know why they let me have the same person even though I already notified them. What a waste of money!
