I Hate Learning Grammar. Can I Get More Than 5.5 Bands ?

SHORTEST answer is NO. Actually, this is not the problem of only yours. Majority of test takers are facing this issue. Today we would like to take you through one of the biggest causes.
Ask yourself the below mentioned question:

What is my current English skills?

This is very important point when you think about how to prepare for IELTS. Majority of students never ask this question to themselves.

You have to keep in mind that the IELTS exam is a test of your English ability. Although learning tips and strategies and practicing for the test can of course increase your score and improve your English
skills, if you are weak in English, then you would not be able to get the desired score.

If someone is very good at English already, then the main thing that they will be doing when they think about how to prepare for IELTS is focusing on the various tips and strategies of the exam, not
improving their actual English. They could probably prepare for the test in a few weeks and may still do well.

However

if you also need to improve your English skills, it is going to take you much longer

For example, you could be well prepared for what happens in each part of the speaking test and knowledgeable on the various types of question you could get, but if the examiner often has difficulty understanding you because of poor pronunciation your score will be affected.

Or you may be well prepared for the different types of essay question and graphs, but if you are making a lot of grammar errors, again your score will be reduced.

Improving such things as pronunciation and grammar take time!

So when you are thinking about how to prepare for IELTS, think about how good your English ability is. If it needs improving then you will need to put more time and effort into getting a good score. At this time you need a coaching class which can help you in.
