You have to feel nervous on this day. If you don't, I guess you aren't really normal then :) So here we go. Nervousness will not ever ruin your IELTS score, as
long as you can control it. Here are some advices that will make your
test day a little bit - maybe much- better.
1. Breakfast.
What?? You said you do not feel hungry even tough you haven't have your
breakfast? Believe me that your nervousness has made you forget your
stomach's sound. Make sure that you EAT YOUR BREAKFAST properly so you
will have the strength you need to take almost-4-hours IELTS test.
Remember that your test needs your focus and stamina so without eat a
good food and drink, how could you do well on your test?
2. Arrive early,
so you will have all the time you need. To prepare, and also to take a
deep, long breath :) You should arrive early for your IELTS test in
order to allow time for you to register and be seated for the test.
Please refer to your booking confirmation for details. If you arrive
late, you may not be allowed to take the test.
3. Bring your ID. It can be your passport or national ID according to identification that you provided in IELTS application form. If you do not have the correct identification document, you will not be able to take the test.
4. Bring stationery. Pens ? Pencils ? Eraser ? Take the stationery you need to stay comfort on test but not too much.
5. Check-in your personal items.
No personal items to be taken into the test room. Test day staff will
collect and safely store your personal belongings. Items which are
forbidden from the test room include: mobile phones, hand-held
computers, cameras, hats, scarves, wallets, books or notes.
6. Listen to test's supervisor carefully. If you have anything to ask, raise your hand.
7. If you have problems during your test, do not hesitate and raise your hand. Remember that your test's supervisor is there to support and assist you.
8. Stay calm.
Everybody has their own way to keep calm, there are people that walking
around and around to make themselves calm. Some may have to listen to
the music for calming down. Do whatever make you calm, but do not
disturb the others.
