My 3/4 IELTS Experience

Last Saturday (March 15,) I had my written exam for the IELTS. It is one of the requirements for the scholarship I will be applying for. The deadline for the said scholarship is on April 30, meaning I have to make sure my papers are complete 2-3 weeks prior before I pouch them. Aside from getting the required overall bandscore width (6.0 for student visa for Australia), I need to secure government clearances such as NBI Clearance for International Travel, renew my PRC ID and Driver's License. This means putting another hole in my, er, Mom's wallet. :) As of the moment, she already cashed  out about P15,000 for review and exam fees. At least the exam fee is reimbursable once successful.
