A question about IELTS General/Academic

sz1006UID: 156097

I am applying for Immigration to Canada. Today just get a notice that requires me to upgrade my IELTS results which I took in 2003,6.5(A).
I hear that G is much easier than A. Should I take G or A?
I saw some tips and materials in this forum. Do Cambridge III or IV work for G?
PS: It is a horrible news for me. After I achieved 6.5 in 2003,never touch it.

移民当然是G拉。G比A确实简单些。
所有cambridge的书后面专门有两套对G的阅读和写作练习。

if the question was written by yourself.  i think your english foundation is well.
Though you never touch ielts more than two years, you touch english.right?

我觉得移民类型的更加侧重于生活技能的英语~~和学术类相比肯定是不一样的~~至于说简单，我觉得不适应倒是真的~~
剑桥系列每本书都有一套移民类型的考卷~~你可以做一下看自己的水平~~一般我觉得移民类型6.5不难得~~
顺便提一下~我觉得你平时生活中肯定也接触到英语的~~只是不详过去那样系统而已~~
好运～～

Yeah, I "feel" English everyday, but it is American English which has a little difference with British English where pronunciation, culture( Reading part) and Written structure are different.
And I contacted my agency who told me that I need to achieve 2 7s and 2 5s. Well, it sounds better than what I expected yesterday---overall 6.5. But the overall scoredoes not work at this case, if I get 4 6.5s,  I will still disqualify the case.
I need some study tips in my situation:
I plan to take the IELTS-G on November 14th/16th?
Some questions:
1. Where can I find plenty of G-IELTS to practise online?
2. I checked the IELTS re-taken policy, which says I can take IELTS more than once in every 3 months. So can I take IELTS on NOV 14 and Nov 30 continuously?
Thank you for all replying and help.
PS: I am trying to practise my writting, so if you guys find any errors or think it not smooth to read through, please figure it out. I am open to take all the advices.

呵呵~~不好意思~~最近看英语看太多了~~所以不想用英语回复了~~
如果你看过我置顶的菜鸟贴，就该知道雅思的三个月限制已经取消了，但是因为存在一次只能报一场的规矩，貌似连续报两场考试就已经是很不容易的事情了
我觉得美国英语和英国英语没有什么不同，至少他们是同一个语言，我考托福和雅思就没有觉得听力和阅读上面有太多的问题~~ 我觉得如果你想两个7的话，可以从自己擅长的东西开始着手，然后突破。
如果你一直接触英语的话，我觉得听力和口语都不会是太大问题，不过关键是做题的技巧和单词的拼写吧~~
我们这里的移民类的雅思好像比较少，网上的关于移民类型的东西也比较少，一般的补习班移民类型和学术类型是一起上课的，只有一场写作小作文是分开上的~~
所以我觉得你做一下剑桥的5套移民类型的考卷，然后平时听听学术的听力应该没有什么太大的问题

嗯～～LZ应该没有太大的问题。还是多练习下，掌握下技巧熟悉题型应该就OK。
