What I did to get that 9 on listening: I have always worked on my general English, revising grammar books and enriching my vocabulary I did familiarize myself with question types and test format I tried to expose myself to the English language I didnt use to listen to podcasts that much, particularly for the sake of improving my listening I listened to podcasts here and there as they were of my interest and informative I read books, it was helpful not to make spelling mistakes. Plus reading books makes you concentrated and focused. I did practice tests from Cambridge 7 till 17. Additionally IELTS trainer 2 every other day. Finally, I analyzed my mistakes and listened to the audio one more time so that I could know why did I miss the word or what was my mistake. 265 views18:55
