📝 Summary of Key Listening Strategies

Master the Format

Know the 4 sections, 40 questions, and 30+10 minute structure. Difficulty increases with each section, so be prepared.

Use the Preview Time

In the 30 seconds before each section, don’t just read. Scan, predict answer types, and underline keywords to focus your listening.

Listen for Confirmation

In multiple-choice questions, all options may be mentioned. Listen for what the speaker confirms, not just what they say first.

Transfer, Check, Guess

Use the final 10 minutes wisely: transfer answers first, then check spelling carefully, and finally, guess any remaining blanks. Never leave an answer empty.
