Let me share my story.
From December 2009 until now, I have taken 25 IELTS tests in Australia in order to get 4x7 to apply permanent resident.However, I just failed, failed,again and again.
There are 10 times I got at least 3 x 7 in other three components but missed one part, either 6 or 6.5.
I have ordered re-mark for 7 times.
1. L 7.0 R 6.0 W 7.0 S 7.0 October.2010
Result: Unchanged. (I normally do not re-mark my reading. This is my fourth test result, and reading is always my strongest part, but I couldn't believe that I got 6. I got reading above 7 for 22 times out of 25 attempts. Maybe something wrong with my answer sheet, I remembered at that time, I put "T" "F" "NG" instead of spelling the whole words. But I am not sure if that matters)
2. L 7.5 R 7.5 W 7.0 S 6.0 September.2011
Result: Unchanged.
3. L 7.5 R 7.5 W 7.0 S 6.5 October.2011
Result: Unchanged.
4. L 7.0 R 7.5 W 6.5 S 7.0 December.2011
Result: Unchanged.
5. L 8.0 R 7.0 W 6.5 S 7.0 March.2012
Result: Unchanged.
6. L 8.0 R 7.0 W 6.5 S 8.0 April.2012
Result: Unchanged.
7. L 7.5 R 9.0 W 6.5 S 7.5 June.2012
Still waiting.... But I know it would be another "Unchanged".
My biggest problem is grammar. When I wrote, I made many mistakes which constrained me from getting a 7.
Last year, I passed writing band 7 for 5 times, but at that time, my speaking stayed steadily at 6.5 ( I remembered I got 8 times for 6.5 in a row in my speaking last year).
From March this year, my speaking improved. The possibility of my speaking achieve band 7 or higher is 7 out of 9 attempts this year.
However, my writing steadily stayed at 6.5 for 12 times.
Sitting in front of the computer, I don't know how to express my current feelings. I know I have to keep practicing hard, but it is so hard to achieve my goal.
Several days ago, I read the following script from a movie:
"Your life is like a river
If you're aiming for a goal that isn't your destiny
You're always going to be swimming against the current
Young Gandhi wants to be a stockcar driver
It's not going to happen
You have to find out what your destiny is and the river will carry you."
Sometimes, I think this is just my destiny.
