Prep strategy

Mock + targeted weakness work. Focus on Writing Task 2 + Speaking Part 2 — these gate most score plateaus. Take 5+ full-length mocks under timed conditions before booking the real test. Free IELTS prep apps (British Council, IDP) are sufficient — paid coaching is rarely necessary for native-English-medium Indian students.
