Nothing on this site can honestly recommend a route before one of these.
Both assume you already know which of the two is losing you the band. If you do not, the free diagnostic settles it in 20 minutes — otherwise you are buying a guess.
What we will not pretend
- There are 120+ genuinely free IELTS mock tests at ieltsonlinetests.com. We tell you that before we take a penny from you.
- A machine cannot judge pronunciation from a transcript, so no Speaking score here is machine-generated.
- The free test estimates a band range. A specialist confirms a band — an estimate only estimates one.
- Task Response, Coherence and Cohesion, Lexical Resource and Grammatical Range are Writing and Speaking criteria. Listening and Reading are scored on raw marks, so no criterion breakdown exists for them — and we do not invent one.
