Hi guys, I need some genuine advice on this exam, I gave my exam on Aug 7, and I got my results on Aug 10 around midnight. This is the score I got L: 10, R: 9, W: 8, S: 8. Though, I performed good in the exam, apparently they graded me less in W & S section.

I applied for revaluation in W & S on the same day around 12:30 am. I know its been only 3 days after applying and generally, it takes 1-2 weeks to get back the results, so I just want to know usually how many days does it take get your revaluation results, did anyone get their results in maybe 3-4 days? Were there any impacts after applying for W & S sections simultaneously? Also because of this I'm having so much anxiety and nervousness as I read in other posts that if you apply for revaluation in both the section at the same time, there's rare chance of score increase.

So, should I just wait for the revaluation results to come in or should I just retake the exam in this month end. I'm trying to score 10+ in all sections and I don't have much time left as I'm guessing the healthcare draw might happen soon maybe in next month or so. I want to finish this as fast as possible so that I can update my score to maximize my CRS points.

Has anybody gone through this situation? Please does anybody have any idea what can be done about this situation, how did you tackle this issue and what solution did you find? I really need help!! I'm kinda on the verge of breaking, this thing has been so stressful and overwhelming for me.

If anyone is reading this post has gone through this kind of situation or any similar ones, please help! Any tips or advice will be greatly appreciated.

I'm giving my exam on Aug 7, please let me know if anyone has booked their exam in this timeline. Would love to practice for speaking if anyone's interested.

Wishing everyone the best!

Hello members,

I have booked my CELPIP exam on Aug 7, 2026.
And I have been preparing for this exam for almost a month, I purchased Hzad’s 15hrs cousre and General Practice test 7-13 bundle. Been studying for past 3 weeks, now I know the pattern and structure of the exam.

I have been practicing and giving mock tests almost everyday for Listening & Reading but while giving Hzad’s mock tests I was scoring good in Listening and Reading which was most of the times 10 and I also read that Hzad’s mock tests are more harder & have lengthy audio clips than the actual exam. Apparently, I’m not scoring good enough in General Practice test mocks, my score is not increasing more than 8 or 9 in these two sections. Because of this I guess I’m lacking somewhere in these sections.

Any tips or strategies would be greatly appreciated! I’m trying to get CLB10 in all sections as I have to get max points for my PR application. I hope to ace it in all sections.

Along with this, I read that this year they have made the exam more tough especially in Listening & Reading section. People are scoring less than before, AI is checking answers for writing as well as speaking, & it has become more difficult to score due to AI’s strict checking. Has the exam’s difficulty actually increased? I just wanna know if this is true or not so that I could give my best for this exam as I’m not a native speaker.
