Last updated on May 22nd, 2019

This is going to be a long post, so please stay with me till the end. After going through a dizzying array of exercises, assignments, mock tests, interviews, blogs, YouTube videos and basically anything related to IELTS, my tutor finally gave his nod of approval to go ahead and book an exam slot.

That’s right! I didn’t book it in the first place like many others. First of all, I didn’t want to waste my time and money on something I was not prepared for.

In fact, it is so crucial and yet so scary that many people want to tackle it first and then proceed ahead with a skills assessment.

Why it is important?

Well because you need those valuable 10 points (or 20 points, yum!), but even more importantly it tests one of the most important skills you will need to live happily in Australia – English language.

Australia has the dual-flush toilet system, small button releases small amount of water (for liquid waste) while the other button releases full capacity of the tank (for solid waste). It is designed to lower the water usage. In fact, Victoria state government provides a rebate if you install a 4-star or higher WELS rated toilet.
