For prospective international studentsThe most painfulNothing moreI got an offer from my dream school, but I couldn't pass the IELTS for a long time. Some students' dormitories have been booked, but seeing that the language DDL and IELTS just can't meet the requirements of the school, they are really anxious to "die"!
I was already very anxious that I was worried that I would not be able to get results, but the British universities over there began to increase their scores again!
