I sat Ielts on 12 feb, and was worried about the writing part, In all honesty the listening part is a breeze as it speaking, infact the speaking part was quiet funny some of the things they wanted to discuss made me chuckle. The reading i thought wasn't to bad and the first part of the writing was easy however the second part was trickier. There is sample papers on line that you can use, i concentrated heavily on part two of the writing.
I got results a fortnight later with a pass in them all, it can be tricky especially when its in exam conditions against the clock......
