IELTS Reading practice involves working through authentic reading passages and questions that mirror the actual IELTS exam format. It helps you develop essential skills like skimming, scanning, and understanding complex texts for both Academic and General Training modules.
Improve your IELTS Reading score by practicing regularly with authentic passages, mastering time management, learning to skim and scan effectively, understanding all question types, and building your vocabulary through consistent reading practice.
Academic Reading features complex texts from journals, books, and academic sources suitable for university study. General Training Reading includes everyday materials like advertisements, notices, and workplace documents for practical, real-world scenarios.
Practice IELTS Reading for at least 30-60 minutes daily. The actual IELTS Reading test is 60 minutes long, so building stamina through regular timed practice is essential for success on test day.
IELTS Reading includes multiple question types: Multiple Choice, True/False/Not Given, Matching Headings, Sentence Completion, Summary Completion, and Short Answer Questions. Each type tests different reading skills and requires specific strategies.
IELTS Reading is scored out of 40 raw marks (one mark per question), which is then converted to a band score from 0-9. For Academic, you typically need 30+ correct answers for Band 7, while General Training requires 34+ for the same band.
