Top IELTS Review Centers in Manila

The IELTS exam will greatly affect both your CRS and PNP scores. I highly recommend taking a review class to prepare yourself for the exam. Below is a list of pros and cons for enrolling in a center:

Cons
1. Cost. You will shell out P5,000-P10,000 or higher depending on the package you choose. Plus other fees such as your transportation and meals for when you attend a class.
2. Limited class schedules and venues
3. Time consuming. In most cases,  be ready to spend half a day or 1 whole day for a class. In my case, I took classes on weekends because I had work on weekdays. Schedules vary per branch and review center.

Pros
1. Practice tests during class. You will get to see your actual scores and where you made mistakes. This gives you an idea of where you stand and where you need to improve.
2. Mock exams. Here you will get a feel of how an actual exam goes. Similar to the practice tests, this will give you an idea of how you did overall. If you've achieved your target scores then you are ready for the real one.
3. Confidence. On the day of the IELTS exam you will get so nervous. Believe me! Why? Because this test will make or break your application to Canada. Being prepared and familiar with what will happen during exam day gives you confidence and helps lessen the jitters. Oh and did I mention that all tests are timed?
4. Do it right the first time. Maybe you won't need to retake the test if in the first attempt you already hit your target scores.

Do check both IDP and British Council exam dates online so that you can plan your schedule ahead. Identify which exam date and venue you prefer  then align the review class schedules available. Make sure to book the class soon as you've decided.

Now about my own IELTS journey... I really wanted to get high scores so I took the exam twice, enrolled in two different review centers, and also paid for reevaluation of scores twice. With that, I was able to experience both IDP and British Council, take classes in Jrooz review and 9.0 Niner.
Lastly, I got the same scores after paying fo reevaluation. Ouch!!!

Many people around the world with the goal of migrating to Canada take the exam several times. The reason? They did not reach their target scores = not enough points to get an Invitation to Apply from CIC under the Express Entry system.
