how to get 7.5 in ielts in reading?

Getting band 7.5 is a competent user, and you would need to be using English every day to get this score, as you need some band 8 like elements to get 7.5 overall. SeeTips & Tricks to add an extra half a band to your scoreto understand this more.



Here are a few important tips to stop you losing marks and getting a lower score than you could. These tips apply mostly for those higher than band 6. Lower than that, just go to language classes or do intensive general English study.



Be aware that many IELTS websites do NOT have very realistic practice questions and some are more like TOEFL than IELTS. Also be aware that many IELTS 'sample' answers on various websites are NOT particularly good examples especially for higher band scores.



FOR LISTENING AND READING

• There are many practice tests available, with answers. Use reputable sources e.g. Cambridge series of books for IELTS practice, to make sure these are similar to the real test

• Practice using your time wisely and don't get lost in the listening test: be proactive

• Focus on the purpose of the text, and the structure of the text/conversation as well as on the details

• You don't need to understand everything to get a good score (but it helps)

Hope this helps.
