Dear Annapurni You must concentrate on areas you are weak. The test is a skill assessment and test your listening, Reading, writing and speaking skills. In my experience invariably students are weak on either one or more of these sections. Also, remember you have a target score ( Band Score on each module to be eligible for VISA) . Understanding this is very important and you need to make sure you attain the target scores on each module. You can reach me out on urbanpro where I am a senior trainer for further information. read less

Hi Annapurni, You must concentrate on all 4 modules. As Speaking is quite easy, concentrate more upon writing and reading. Listening is completely depending on your level of understanding the accent of the audio.

Does IELTS gives more weightage for using complex words in essays and letters?
You can use simple, compound and complex sentences to showcase your writing skills. You get a better score for displaying your vocabulary and lexical skills. However, use the appropriate and meaningful words to convey your message clearly.
