Congratulations to the winners – such scores are definitely a reason for a celebration! To mark this special occasion we are sending your certificates of achievement to your emails, and your IELTS results will be displayed in the IELTS-Blog hall of fame.

I was delighted to learn that at least two of the winners used my books to prepare for the exam: Mohammadali Shahriari used ‘Target Band 7′, and Ratnesh Nagori used ‘Ace the IELTS’.

And now I’d like to appeal to the other winners’ generosity. Please use your experience to help future test takers and share your exam stories. Tell us how you prepared and studied, and what helped you achieve success in IELTS. Anything you can share will be posted on IELTS-Blog without delay, so everyone can learn from you and get a better score in their own exam this month.
