1Listening

You do not lose marks for hearing. You lose them for spelling.

শুনতে পারো, কিন্তু বানানে নম্বর যায়।

Type what you hear, straight into the transcript. The moment you get one wrong you see the letters you missed - and the Bengali meaning, so the word sticks instead of being missed again next week.

2Reading

Every question type has a trick. Here they are, in Bengali.

প্রতিটি প্রশ্নের ধরন, বাংলায় বোঝানো।

True/False/Not Given is not a reading problem, it is a rules problem - and the rules have never been explained to you properly in your own language. 82 question types, each with what to do and what never to do.

Question types & strategy
True / False / Not Given
Not Given means the passage is silent. It does not mean you disagree.
প্যাসেজে কথাটা নেই মানেই Not Given - তোমার মতে ভুল হলেই False নয়।
Matching Headings
Read the first and last sentence of the paragraph before the middle.
অনুচ্ছেদের প্রথম ও শেষ বাক্য আগে পড়ো, মাঝেরটা পরে।
Summary Completion
The word must fit the grammar of the sentence, not just the meaning.
শুধু অর্থ নয় - বাক্যের ব্যাকরণেও শব্দটা খাপ খেতে হবে।
3Writing

See a Band 9 answer with every sentence labelled by its job.

কোন বাক্য কী কাজ করছে - সব দেখানো আছে।

Not "here is a good essay, copy the style." Every part is colour-coded and every sentence tagged: topic sentence, explanation, example, result. You can see the skeleton, so you can build your own. Press play and listen instead of reading.

Introduction
ParaphraseIt is sometimes argued that higher education ought to be funded entirely by the state. PositionI strongly agree with this view.
Body 1
Topic sentenceCharging for education restricts access by wealth rather than ability. ExampleIn England, the 2012 fee rise was followed by a fall in mature applications.
Conclusion
Restated positionTuition should be publicly funded, as the gains in fairness outweigh the expense.
4Speaking

An examiner that listens to your answer and asks the next question.

সত্যিকারের কথোপকথন - মুখস্থ প্রশ্ন নয়।

Not a list of questions on a page. You speak, it hears you, and what it asks next depends on what you actually said - through Part 1, a Part 2 cue card with a minute to prepare, then Part 3. Band assessment against the official criteria at the end.

What score do I need for Band 7 in IELTS Reading and Listening?

In Academic Reading, Band 7 is 30 correct out of 40 and Band 6 is 23. In Listening, Band 7 is also 30 out of 40. The seven questions between Band 6 and Band 7 are almost always True/False/Not Given and Matching Headings in Reading, and spelling in Listening.

What is the average IELTS score in Bangladesh?

According to the IELTS partners' own test-taker data for 2024-25, Bangladeshi Academic candidates average an overall Band 6.0 - below India (6.6), Pakistan (6.4) and Nepal (6.2). Around 40% score below Band 6 and fewer than one in five reach Band 7.

Is IELTS on computer harder than on paper?

No. The questions, timing and marking are identical. The computer test runs on the Inspera platform: you type answers, highlight text and see a countdown timer. Results arrive in 3 to 5 days instead of 13. The only real difference is practice - which is why IELTS Mates mock tests copy the real interface.

Is the material real Cambridge IELTS?

Yes. The mock tests use the official Cambridge IELTS past-paper series, timed and laid out like the real computer-delivered test, with every answer explained in Bengali.

This was built by someone sitting the same exam as you.

যে বানিয়েছে, সে নিজেও এই পরীক্ষাই দিয়েছে।

I built this while preparing for my own IELTS, because nothing out there explained the test in Bengali properly. I sat the exam and got Band 7.
