Hello guys,

Actually I took my IELTS before at British Council - KL and I scored 5.5 even though I have scored at the Reading and Listening 6.5 and 6.0 respectively (I know it wasn't good enough but that was entirely my fault since I didn't have enough sleep the night before which has resulted on bad performance with my L,R and W) .

The issue here was with my speaking test module (it was in a different day), I consider myself as "good" speaker since is everyday routine to speak in English, badly I have scored band 5.0 which doesn't make sense to me at all but I understand why. That day at the British Council I was just disappointed by the examiners attitude toward me, that has turned me down, thus resulted on the poor performance with my speaking module even though I was pretty confident that I'd be able to score at least band 7.0.

However, I'd like to retake my IELTS exam, but this time I'd like to avoid British Council since I don't want to remember the bad speaking module fairy tales last time. I am now considering IDP Subang Jaya since is fairly near to my house, do you guys recommend this center base on the examiners there? Are they more tolerant toward the speaking module and perhaps the writing module?

Thanks a lot !

Thanks mate for your reply and good to hear about your achievements. Just wondering, where did you sit for your IELTS? Was it British Council as well?

Which IDP branch is that? Was it KL or SJ?
