Hello,

 I am taking the IELTS exam sooooon, and i just figure it out that i have a problem with filling the blanks, either the word that i have to use is hard to write- i mean in spelling- or in the converstion they speak to fast, saying alot of things that are not important to know, if i have a spelling mistake like just one letter wrong then the answer will be wrong or do they give me half of the grade?

any experience or tips...  will be helpful for me!!

About the writing section, Is there a different between writing a report and an essay?

I found good stuff online about the IELTS exam but i still want to ask!

wish me LUCK

Sara

A report does not involve your own opinion.  An essay often does.
Try to remember to capitalize the word I at all times, even in the middle of sentences.  Otherwise you may end up losing points!

Good luck!
