IELTS Band 6.5 Study Plan
Durasi: 3–4 weeks · Waktu harian: 2 h · Target: 6.5
Untuk siapa rencana ini
You need a solid 6.5 — typically for admission or migration thresholds. At this target, most lost points are avoidable: timing, instructions, spelling, and 2–3 weak question types.
Prinsip utama
Input alone (memorizing words, watching lessons) stores knowledge; only OUTPUT (dictation, timed tests, speaking aloud, outlining) turns it into a band score. Every day below mixes both — never skip the output half.

Rutinitas harian
Pagi: Read one passage or transcript aloud for 10 minutes before anything else — mouth and ear before eyes.
Sebelum tidur: Before bed, review the words you collected today from wrong answers (5–10 minutes, no new material).
Review diri mingguan
- Listening: is your score stable or rising? Which section loses the most points?
- Reading: are you finishing in 60 minutes? Which question type costs you most?
- Did you do the OUTPUT work (dictation, outlines, speaking aloud) — or only input?
- Write one sentence: what will you do differently next week?
Rencana adalah rute, bukan janji — tidak ada jadwal yang bisa menjamin skor band. Sesuaikan volume dengan kenyataanmu dan tetap kerjakan latihan output.
