In that case, you need to ‘tick mark’ beside ‘I need special need’ while registering for the exam online. But unless you ask for that during registration, you are not entitled to get that facility.
What is the way of selecting the best venue for me?
Well, it’s important to keep in mind. A venue of your inconvenience can ruin your good performance. In terms of venue selection, you need to consider a few factors mentioned below.
Distance from your house
Especially In Dhaka distance matters because you can get stuck in traffic congestion hours after hours. So, it’s better to choose the venue that is closer to you. British Council, for example, has increased its number of venues thinking about the candidates’ convenience. They offer exam halls all around Dhaka. So, you better find the closest one. This will not kill your time on the road and make you tired.
Other available venues around you
If you have had a chance to visit the venue before you sit for the test, you can visit it or take a mock test there to see if you like the environment. If not, look for other venues nearby. Seeing the venue before you register is always a nice idea.
Restaurants nearby the exam hall
The IELTS test day is about long hours at a stretch. As a result, it’s intuitive that you will feel hungry. So, it’s wise to have a meal twice before you enter the hall so that you feel energetic throughout the exam. It’s a long day so you can take breakfast before you start your journey, and lunch before entering the exam hall. Alternatively, if you are residing very close to the exam center, you can take brunch to stay emphatic during the exam.
Have a smooth exam experience and score your desired band score. I wish you the best!
