IELTS LISTENING  QUESTION TYPES

1. Multiple-choice questions – Single answer
2. Multiple-choice questions – Multiple answers
3. Sentence completion
4. Table completion
5. Summary completion
6. Note completion
7. Flow chart completion
8. Short-answer questions
9. Classification
10. Matching
11. Labelling a diagram
12. Labelling a map
13. Labelling a plan

1. Attempt all questions – there are no penalties for incorrect answers. Be careful to not waste
time on a question that you don’t know though – guess and move on.
2. Watch out for plurals in answers. If the question requires a plural answer, a singular answer is
incorrect.
3. Answers appear in the order they are heard in the audio. They come quickly or with large gaps
between them.
4. Prepare to hear a potential answer that is not the actual answer. This is common when two
people are making plans. They first agree on meeting at a certain time, but then one
remembers that they cannot so they decide on a new time.
5. Take care when you transfer your answers and pay attention to the word limit for your
answers on your answer sheet!
6. Multiple choice answers will ask for a letter (A, B, C, D). Write the letter and not the
corresponding answer.
7. When asked to complete a sentence using no more than two words, and the correct answer is
“leather coat,” then “a coat made of leather” is incorrect. Same goes for numbers.
8. Hyphenated words (like “part-time”) are considered as one word.
9. A date (1990) is considered one number.
