Got CLB 10 in first attempt
Hello everyone,
I gave exam on May 3rd.
My scores were
L 9
R 10
W 8
S 8
Then I applied for reval for writing and speaking seperately.
I got result on 7th May.
Applied reval for writing on 7th May itself.
Score bumped from 8 => 10.
Again applied for speaking on 10th May.
Score bumped from 8 => 9.
So final score 9 10 10 9
I’m a non native speaker. Practiced a lot for writing and speaking. I wrote almost 10 emails and essays. Checked with ChatGPT. Worked to fix my mistake. But was always getting borderline 9.
For speaking, I thought I fumbled too much. Because some questions needed thinking, but I kept speaking, making up stories. In picture description task, instead of saying sky diving I said paragliding. I was worried about this part more.
Reading was easier, there is enough time to read the passage and answer all questions. Just need to focus.
Listening, I felt was little faster than careeraxis latest mocks on YouTube. I got zoned out during first task. But later held my composure.
Finally, I wasn’t too confident of getting this amazing score, especially after reval. But yeah I made it. I am happy now.
