Hi! After 2 attempts to sit IELTS A with no improvements in writing score (6,5), I was advised by my English teacher to try other tests, because she believed that my writing deserved higher mark. I booked PTE A and finally got even more than what I needed - 81 in writing The test itself is quite tough, so I highly recommend to buy mock online test before sitting the real one: it really helped me to get used to the format.
