Can I underline or highlight text during the IELTS reading test?

IELTS.WORK IELTS FAQ # 1711360352

Yes, you can underline or highlight text during the IELTS reading test, but make sure not to obscure any part of the text as it may result in deduction of marks.

Here are some additional tips for the IELTS Reading Test:

1. Carefully read the questions before starting the passage. This will give you a clear idea of what information you need to look for as you read.
2. Skim through the passage to get an overall understanding of its content and structure. Look for headings, subheadings, and any images or diagrams that may provide additional context.
3. As you read the passage, take notes on key points and relevant details in the margins. Underlining or highlighting text can be helpful here, as long as it doesn't obscure the original text.
4. After reading the entire passage, re-read any sections that were particularly difficult or that contained important information related to the questions.
5. Make sure to read the questions again before answering them, as this will help you recall the specific information you need from the passage.
