Last Minute Takeaway Notes for IELTS Listening

Takeaway Notes 
for IELTS Listening 
The IELTS listening 
test seems simple 
because it is just 
about listening to a 
few recordings and 
answering 40 
questions. 
Predicting 
Answers  
Perhaps this is the 
biggest mistake you 
may make. Trying to 
predict answers 
before fully 
understanding the text 
is not the right 
approach.   
Ignoring the 
Instructions Given   
With 6 different 
types of 
questions, it is 
easy to get the 
answer format 
mixed up or 
ignore it 
completely.  
Not Watching 
Out 
Distractors  
As you listen 
through the 
various recording
s
, it will be tempting 
to zone out and 
allow your mind to 
wander.  
Answering Before 
Fully Listening   
Similar to trying to 
predict the answers, 
you would not want to 
zone out during the 
audio when you hear 
what might be a hint to 
the answer.  
Leaving Blank 
Spaces  
Unlike a 
reading test, it is 
actually 
counterproductive 
to leave blank 
spaces as you go 
through answering 
queries.
