Barron IELTS Strategies and Tips with MP3 CD Dr Lin Lougheed 9781438073651 Books Reviews
- Not the best IELTS practice test book available which surpised me as Dr Lin Lougheed is renowned for his knowledge of proficiency tests.
The instructions for YES/NO/NOT GIVEN were exactly the same as TRUE/FALSE/NOT GIVEN which implied they were the same type of question, which in fact they are not. TRUE/FALSE/NOT GIVEN focus on facts and information, whereas YES/NO/NOT GIVEN focus on views/opinions of the writer. Some of the strategies to successfully answer this question type are transferable, but not all of them as the test taker needs to focus on opinion/view, not facts and information. I have been led to believe that future editions will rectify this error.
Another major flaw in the practice tests is in the listening section - section 4. All lectures are divided into two parts allowing students/candidates to look at questions (e.g. 36-40). Breaks in the middle of the final section has not been part of an IELTS test for many years. The purpose of section 4 is see if the student is able to listen and comprehend a short lecture accurately.
Finally, Section 3 questions are extremely easy. Student have little difficulty answering all the questions correctly at very few synonyms and/or parallel ideas are used. In additions, many of the answers are blantly obvious when listening to the text. From Section 3 onwards, should be more subtle requiring students to listen carefully.
The only good aspect of this book is to build confidence and/or introducing new strategies for various question types. - Good text book for IELTS
- This reviewer covers all impartant parts of IELTS. My wife used it and got really good scores in her exam. Highly recommended.
- The book arrived with the cd's broken, the first page is torned, and several of the pages inside are falling from the book...
I will need to repurchase the book... - Excellent product!!!
- excellent to help prepare my students
- Not that great!! Actual exam is tougher than the questionnaires in the book.
- A great study guide and exam prep. I recommend.
