What to do one day before IELTS exam?

It's scary when days are getting nearer... Most of us got panic attack. Especially me. I had worried for 4 days before IELTS exam. And when the day comes I was more scared than ever. I asked my mother to do some fortune telling using her special stones. She told me not to worry and you will get more than 6.5. And yes I got 7.

My advice is:
  1. Prepare all your documents a night before your exam and put somewhere you will not forget.
  2. Get up early because you need to be there 1.30 hour advance. Which implies sleep early.
  3. Have a proper breakfast to increase your motivation.
  4. Buy some dark chocolate in case you are developing panic and eat it before entering exam. Dark chocolate boosts your brain. :-D
  5. Don't drink water or juice right before exam. Because your bladder get full and you want to go bathroom middle of the exam.
  6. Check from http://ieltsnetwork.com recent IELTS questions. Sometimes, if you are lucky then you may find exam materials due to time difference. But remember, Asian and European IELTS exam questions are different.
  7. Familiarize with the question and answers of IELTS. If you suppose to answer Yes, No, Not Given, then write exact words, not short version of it. And do not get confused with Yes No Not Given question with True False Not Given question.
And don't worry about what will happen. You will be alright.Hundreds of people are giving with you at the same time and they all feel same like you.


Wish you good luck for those who are giving on 10th January 2015.
