Worth it and Highly recommend from my direct experience

I love the mock test here as it is convenient and prep me for the real test very well with feedback given in each skill so I know my weaknesses and develop my skills accordingly. Most importantly this real mock test is really helpful to prepare my nerves before the test.
It is also quite nice to buy it from this site because there is no time limited. I still have one left from my first purchase 3 years ago. You will not be disappointed, so I highly recommended!

The mock test feedback is a scam

I bought the single mock test a week before the exam and took it to gauge how well prepared I am. I got an overall band score of 6.5. I was in shock because my target score was much higher than that. The feedback was also unnecessarily critical of my shortcomings. It forced me to think whether I should postpone my exam. I had lost all confidence in my ability and was devastated.

However, a day before the exam, I mustered up the courage to take the test. With no additional preparation, I took the exam and scored an overall score of 8.0.

This shows me that the mock-test feedback only forces you to purchase other material from this platform. It is a cheap marketing tactic and I am glad I did not fall for it. If someone is in the same situation this is a message to trust your gut more than the feedback given by the examiners of this platform.

Thank you for your feedback. We take all reviews seriously as they help us improve our services.

Our mock tests are designed to highlight areas for improvement, often with stricter grading to prepare candidates for the actual exam. The critical feedback is intended to be constructive, pointing out weaknesses so you can work on them before the real test.

We are sorry to hear that the feedback affected your confidence. Scoring an 8.0 on the actual exam without additional preparation indicates you were well-prepared, and the strictness of our mock test likely ensured your readiness.

We assure you that our goal is not to push additional materials but to provide a realistic assessment to help candidates prepare better. We value your trust and are committed to improving our services based on your feedback.

IELTS test experience was highly usefull

The IELTS test experience was highly beneficial in terms of understanding the test format and conditions, as they closely resembled those of the actual exam. The post-test report provided relevant information about all four parts of the test.

Comments not very clear

The first report seems ok, but the second report is terrible. Some part of the feedback doesn't make sense at all, and the so called examiners' comments don't explain why you are given that band.
Overall, I find the comments and feedback quite confusing and not very helpful.

Why should i choose preptical

Preptical has some advantages like entering to the exam from any place you want, in a relevant way. After the test i recieved wide explanation about my speaking. It really helped me to be aware of the mistakes that I made, and correcting them for the second time.

The report, analysis and feedbacks are amazing!

I didn't expect a report such a complete and detailed report. It isn't a simple report, it's a full analysis in each question or task, because beyond feedback, ther are comments in each mistakes, what was really helpfull to improve my English level.

The feedback is wholesome

I was surprised by how detailed and thorough the feedback was, the examiner wrote two essay samples for the writing part 1 which was incredible. What I really liked was question by question analysis in the speaking part where the examiner leaves suggestions for each question, it's like he is talking to you directly. By and large, it was the highest quality mock test I have ever taken. Hats off!

Jump from band 7 to 8!!

Preptical is an amazing site to prepare for your IELTS. I took the mock test and scored overall band 7. The feedback really helped me improve my performance and I scored an overall band 8 on the Actual Academic IELTS.

Gave first mock test

I have just given the first mock test. And I must say, the feedback given is truly good. Its very specific and helps to narrow down the issues. The question by question analysis is also a great way to analyse your answers. Only one thing that I found an issue is for the listening module. There is no 'STOP' button but a fixed timer. So, even if you are done answering you need to wait for complete 30 seconds to move to the next question. This doesn't seem natural.

Key support for my IELTS preparation.

I just received my first report, 48h after the test as promised. The report helped me a lot. Some mistakes I didn´t even noticed that I was making. All suggestions will be useful for my improvement.
Thumbs up!

I would say it was more than expected

I would say it was more than expected! You get detailed feedback on your mistakes, even they recommend you better ways to improve. I would highly recommend preptical to those who are preparing for sitting on IELTS exam. Moreover, they have admirable customer service with chat help center.
