If you are not able to hear correctly, let an examiner know straight away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tip 2: <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Before the recording starts, you will be given 30-45 seconds to look at the questions. Utilize this time to study the questions and try to anticipate what you might hear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tip 3: <\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Write your answers on your question paper while listening to the audio. Then transfer it to the answer sheet later.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tip 4:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>It is always recommended that you use all capital letters for your answers. As it will be clearer to read.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tip 5:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Always check your grammar and spelling mistakes at the end. Your answer will be marked wrong if you make a spelling mistake.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tip 6:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Listen carefully when there is a combination of letters and numbers (for example, the car registration number).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tip 7:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Remember that you may hear synonyms of the words written on the question paper.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tip 8:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t try to understand everything. Your job is to just focus on listening to the answers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Tip 9:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Don\u2019t make a mistake by leaving the answers empty as there is no negative marking in the exam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\n<script async=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js\"><\/script>\n                <ins class=\"adsbygoogle\" style=\"display:block\" data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-5017566440575750\" data-ad-slot=\"3406615517\" data-ad-format=\"link\" data-full-width-responsive=\"true\"><\/ins>\n                <script>\n                     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n                <\/script>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bring these tips into play and improve your band score.
