Hi, my name is Umair. I am from Pakistan , but living in Canada for last 2 years. I took ielts test couple of weeks ago, and got 6 bands overall. I am really disappointed, because I was hoping to get 7 overall. Although this is enough to start diploma program, but I need at least 6.5 for a degree
My friends said you'll never gets a desire bands in Canada, because they mark you very strictly, and it's actually happened.
