In this quick tip, IELTS Warsaw explains the importance of checking and rereading your written answer text.

It’s a good idea to leave 2-3 mins at the end of the written exam to reread what you have written. This involved skimming your answer in order to check for language errors. Noticing and correcting even a small
number of these errors can greatly help the overall score in terms of your language accuracy. Many candidates feel that it’s more valuable to write an extra few lines rather than checking for errors but rushed writing
at the end of an exam often results in inaccurate and at times incoherent writing.
