“I needed Proficient English (7.0) for my Australian skilled migration application. I had been stuck at 6.5 in Writing for two attempts. The AI Writing Evaluator on IELTS Prep Studio showed me exactly what was wrong with my Task 2 essays — I was losing marks on Task Response. On my third attempt, I scored 7.0.”
