Fix grammar foundations first
Band 5 Writing often has frequent errors in tense, articles, and subject-verb agreement. Daily grammar drills (30 min) plus error logs from mock Writing tasks accelerate improvement.
Build topic vocabulary
Learn vocabulary in topics (environment, education, technology) — not random word lists. Use new words in Writing essays and Speaking answers within 48 hours of learning.
Listening and Reading: accuracy over speed
At band 5, you likely miss detail questions. Slow timed practice — aim for 30/40 correct before speeding up. TFNG and matching headings need dedicated study.
Track with biweekly mocks
Take a full mock every two weeks on mymockexam.uz. If one module stays flat after 4 weeks, shift 60% of study time to that module.
