Vocabulary (Lexical Resource) for IELTS

Since IELTS is an English Language Proficiency Test, a great emphasis is put on vocabulary to evaluate the overall score of a candidate.


IELTS Test comprises of four sections – Speaking, Writing, Reading and Listening. The only thing that all these sections have in common is "Vocabulary”. When it comes to Speaking & Writing sections, Vocabulary is definitely one of the must-have skills. It contributes up to 25% in your total score. It even plays a key role in Listening & Reading sections.


Having less vocabulary tends you to write words over and over within the passage. Whereas you keep on repeating the sentence again and again when you run short of words while conversing with your examiner.


IELTS Vocabulary skills lead to exam success. To really shine on your IELTS Test, make sure that you not only recall vocabulary but also understand it in context. Be prepared to use your vocabulary fluently both in your writing and in your speech.
