IELTS is an English language exam and you are not going to learn English in the last night. So let the quiet knowledge settles in your brain. Of course when I am saying that I assume that you have already done some preparation. But if that is not the case and you are just discovering what the exam is about then you need to learn the main strategies and take one full mock test.
2. Switch your brain to ‘English mode’

Moreover, everything is not too challenging. And don’t worry if you don’t understand something. Just accept it as it comes your brain still doing the work.

Challenge you will face
1. Accent
Accent is the application of phonological rules, sounds and intonations of one language unto another. So, basically it means speaking English but using the sounds intonation and rhythm of your native tongue. Now in order to improve Accent you first have to perceive the difference between the languages.
As you should understand the sound that you actually using instead of the English sound because when there is a sound in a different language. In the case of English that is difficult for you to pronounce and it does not exist in your own language. Then you are most likely to substitute it with another sound that does existing in your language.
2. Multi tasking
Student will be multitasking. They should cover all the modules one by one. While listening module not only listen to the audio but also read the questions and write the answers.
3. Synonyms
IELTS modules are totally depends upon synonymous. A lot of synonyms are used in IELTS test so you should be aware of this. Sometime you are very close to your answer but just because of synonyms you will not find the answers.
