یکی از بهترین کتابهای آموزش زبان انگلیسی که خوندم متن ریندینگها آنقدر قشنگن که آدم رو خسته نمیکنند و اون پارتهایی که خانواده لغت رو می‌گفت خیلی قشنگ بود کامل برای آدم جا میفتاد و لیستنینگ هاش همون ریدینگها نبود بلکه یه نوع بحث در مورد ریدینگ بودن و این مورد برام خیلی جالب بود. انگار اون لغات رو در دو متن با فرمت‌های مختلف ولی مفاهیم یکسان یاد می‌گرفتی یعنی یه مجموعه لغت به دوشکل ریدینگ و لیستنینگ

I'm glad that I bought this book. I used it for studying for my ielts exam and I got an outstanding score which is more than I expected to get. I think that the most important thing that helped me is the four complete practice tests on all the sections. I'm satisfied :D

It's a good IELTS preparation guide, clear, simple and straightforward to the point, easy for self learning, i truly recommend it!

I have the 2010 version. I could practice the reading and writing passages but it might be applicable for the current exam.

[Rizki Rayani]

This book is great as a starter for those who are still trying to figure out the structure and format of IELTS. However, for those who have already familiar with the test system and just want to do some practice, the questions provided in this book are way too easy compared with the real IELTS questions.

[Christopher Pell]

Although Barrons is a big publishing company, they are not an IELTS company. As such, there is general information about the test but nothing to help students with their specific needs.

Some of the advice is also misleading.

This book isn't the best way to prepare for IELTS.

depending on personal experience . you can use this book papers to dry your wet hands or to wipe your as* , but don't ever use it for IELTS . i solved every question written in this book . I took every exam made to estimate my scores . but they all were way far from reality . believe me when i tell you that this book is old and the IELTS test difficulty has changed , well ,not too much ,but much enough to make this book worthless .

Must read for now :O. I hope I chose the right book.
