What five weeks of this actually looks like
Preparation is not a feature list. It is the same loop, repeated, until test day is boring.
- Week 1
You find out where you actually stand
One timed mock, no warm-up. The report is blunt: the band you would get today, per skill, with the sentences that cost you marks.
- Weeks 2–4
You practise the gap, not the whole exam
Speaking was 6.0 and reading was 7.5, so the plan stops sending you reading. Every recording comes back marked on fluency, pronunciation and range.
- Week 5
The mock stops being frightening
Same timers, same no-going-back rules, same three hours. By the third one it is a Tuesday evening rather than an event.
- Test day
Nothing on the screen is new
You have already sat this exam a dozen times. The only variable left is the questions.
