thanks

salam to you all,

I have read all your nice e-mails and i was so excited and happy to know that such good people are always there for support.

I was really frustrated and disappointed, but now i feel better and will follow Mr. Tony's advice to process my application with these scores if possible, if not i will try to take the exam again( last choice ).

as Ahmed said to live a good, peacefully life you have to fight as hard as possible to achieve your goals. It is seemed that all Palestinians are destined to fight all their life and i am sure that we do have the courage to fight back and succeed.

regards to you all,

khawla

my results

good morning all,

I am very sorry to announce my bad results to you all, however, I should do this since I promised to do it, and I hope that no one ever would get the same.

listening:6 ( 5 on Tuesday )
reading: 6.9 ( 6 on Tuesday )
writing: 7 ( 7 on Tuesday )
speaking: 7 ( 7 on Tuesday)

overall: 6 !!!!!!!!!!

now, the problem is not only the overall results, but that I needed band 7 in all four skills to fulfil the condition for immigration.

I am ready to read your comments regarding this e-mail, and I will appreciat them no matter how passive they are going to be.(please do not tell me to repeat it because I will not do it again).

I will try to contact my brother in Canada to know if anything can be done regarding the overall points, and I am ready to hear any suggestion from you side.

regards,
keep in touch.
khawla.

My exam

Dear all,

First of all, I want to thank Ahmad for his invitation, sorry I missed it as I was preparing for yesterday's IELTS exam.

Now, my feedback on Yesterday's IELTS exam for those who are scheduled for next week:

Listening test: It was easy at the beginning, but at the end, I was shocked to notice the tape ended and I missed the last conversation! I guessed few answers.

Reading test: was good, 1st two paragraphs were about hotels & headings, last one was about environment.

Writing test: Essay was about whether schools need to give more time for Arts, Music, writings, if we agree or don't agree. (I felt good about this subject, but somehow, it was difficult for me to start the introduction)

Letter : was about a friend who want to stay in your house while you are away, instructions & some suggesting to spend good time

Speaking : The lady was nice, the test was very positive, I felt good while speaking & my 2 mins. test was about a good thing happened in my life (not bad & not complicated)
Note: the examiner kept asking me short questions and I was answering non-stop so she would smile and say, " that is enough, we will move to another topic".

That is a brief of my exam, I hope that I will score well.

Hearing from you,

For Khaola & the other, please tell us your marks.

Regards,

Maha Hanna
