Just asking about General Module of IELTS.

Hi Everyone !!

I also getting a General Module of IELTS exam. But, I really don't know about Reading and Writing courses in that Module. Are they same with Academic Module ? I already known about Speaking and Listening courses, they are same with Academic, isn't it ?

If someone know about it, let me know what should I prepare. I look forward to hearing from y'all.

The writing test for the general module is different than the academic. You are still given 1 hour to complete both tasks, but Task 1 is always a letter and Task 2 is an essay on a given topic.

When I am doing IELTS preparation for my students I recommend they listen to podcasts in English, such as those on NPR and the BBC. Doing this will give you practice with English as well as give you a working knowledge of current day topics. I am preparing some tips for IELTS test preparation. Check them out, you may find something useful there.
