I had to take the exam in February, 2007. And I had 4 weeks ahead of me, when I heard people studying for months, i said "I am in trouble". Then ordered this book along with audio cd’s. After studying the practice tests i started to feel confident and my exam was perfect (to me : I haven’t get the results yet :) ). I also studied the previous books of Cambridge IELTS, too. I recommend this book to everyone. For writing and speaking you need to find other resources, since those can not be tested by the book.

Later note : I got the results : 8 over 9. I passed it with a good grade!

  • Paperback: 176 pages
  • Publisher: Cambridge University Press; Student edition (July 23, 2007)
  • Language: English

This book is precisely what it claims to be: a collection of 4 IELTS tests with answers. There is no CD-ROM (so if you want to do the listening part you need to also purchase the CD).

In other words, there are no grammatical rules explained, no ramping-up activities, no tips for the actual test, and no strategies on how to optimize the performance in the 4 parts of the test. For all these reasons, this book is absolutely not enough for passing the actual exam.

Even if your grammar is stellar (and you need no book about it) and your listening skills are wonderful (and you need no CD-ROM), you will still need to learn the best strategies in that the IELTS exam format places *heavy* time constraints on you! I suggest "Action plan for IELTS" for finding some neat strategies.

Furthermore, I find the tips inside "Step up to IELTS" just great. A student needs to know (for example) that, as far as what the IELTS examiners are after, it is better to try to use a complex sentence and fail at it than write/speak in simple sentences.
