The IELTS test is conducted in two ways: written and on computer. This means that in the IELTS on the computer test, three skills of reading, listening, and writing are held on the computer, and you have to test them by one system and online. This method has its advantages that we have described in previous posts. Regarding the type of questions and exam time, the computer exam is no different from the written. The only difference is that you have to type the answers to the questions in the IELTS on computer.
But how do we ensure that this method is suitable for us, and how should we prepare for it? In this article, we will answer these questions.
How can we make sure that IELTS on Computer is suitable for us?
You may be one of the IELTS volunteers who have heard of IELTS on Computer and are interested in trying it out.
To do this, you need to ask yourself several questions.
Are you familiar with computers?
As you know, you should be familiar with computers in IELTS computer. Because you have to be able to type and move around the pages using different keys. So getting to know the computer is very important. If you don’t know how to work with a computer, stress will overwhelm you, and you may not get good results.
The second is, do you type fast?
After the exam time is over in the IELTS on the computer test, the computer screen is locked, and nothing can be done. So you need to be able to type fast and write the answers to the questions, so you don’t waste time.
Some volunteers may also say that we prefer to type in the answers to our questions and are not interested in using a pencil. In this case, IELTS on the computer is a good option. Choose it if you are comfortable with any method and don’t have mental stress. Don’t choose this method if you can not work with the computer and think you may be stressed while answering questions. Because in addition to wasting money, you will not get the desired result.

Once you have checked and made sure this method is suitable for you, it’s time to prepare for this test. In the first step, it is better to practice typing. To do this, you can practice the previous tests. Also, using word software can help a lot to strengthen your typing.

Also, try to do your exercises and studies on the computer to become thoroughly acquainted with this and not have problems and stress on the exam day.
