IELTS Listening

Form completion

Two people talk and you complete a form from what they say. Most common in Part 1.

You answer with
Typed words and numbers
Answer order
Follows the recording, always

Test instructions

Complete the form below.

Write ONE WORD AND/OR A NUMBER for each answer.

What this task is

Someone is booking a course, hiring a venue, or joining a club. You have the form. The details come up in the conversation, and you write them down as you hear them.

Answers are close to the words you hear, so spelling and numbers must be exact. If the speaker corrects an answer, write the corrected version.

The traps

The common mistakes in this question type. Learn to spot each one before test day.

Self-correction

"So that's the 14th... sorry, no, they moved it to the 15th." The second version is usually the answer. When a speaker corrects themselves, change what you wrote.

Two numbers in one breath

A price is quoted, then a member discount. A date is offered, then swapped for another. Only one of them answers the question on the form.

The unit is already printed

If the form shows "£ ......", the answer is the bare number. Write "£38" into a blank that already has the £ sign and you can lose the mark.
