Sample IELTS Exam Content: Listening

Researcher’s observation:

IELTS requires candidates to coordinate their reading, writing, spelling and visual cognitive skills
while they are ostensibly being tested for their listening skills. Candidates who have a miniscule
spelling error in their written response receive a score of zero for that component of the listening
test. This false score suggests that the candidate could not comprehend that word. This is another
example of how IELTS deliberately sets test-takers up to fail to maximize profits.
