FlexCheck AI

All new IELTS Ready Premium users will get 2 free FlexChecks which allow you to get feedback on two tasks (e.g. a full mock Writing test, two parts of a mock Speaking test, or one part of a mock Writing and one part of a mock Speaking test). These are valid for 2 days after you create your account. After these free credits are exhausted or have expired, if you want AI scoring and feedback for any further Speaking or Writing practice you have done, you can buy a Gateway or Advantage FlexCheck AI package. You will then be able to receive FlexCheck AI feedback on your work, including anything already saved in your History page, until your test date.

Go to Profile and Package to see your options or check out this article:

On a Gateway subscription you will get a breakdown of your band score for each marking criteria, vocabulary assessment and example answers. On an Advantage subscription, you also get detailed written feedback on each marking criteria in local languages and pronunciation analysis powered by the Oxford Advanced Learner’s Dictionary. You can see this on your History page.

Speaking feedback from an expert human tutor is available through IELTS Flex with FlexLessons. As an IELTS Ready Premium student, you can extend your access to an IELTS Flex account for free here - just use the same email to log in.
