Are the cue cards in this guide official IELTS questions?

Oct 19, 2026
Short answer

No. These are original practice tasks created for this guide, with fictional written illustrations. They are not recalled questions, predictions, or a current-season question bank. Use the official IELTS preparation resources for official sample materials, and distinguish a publisher's own exercises from material supplied by the test provider.

The official page lists fluency and coherence, lexical resource, grammatical range and accuracy, and pronunciation as assessment criteria throughout the Speaking test. A written sample cannot demonstrate pronunciation or delivery; use the criteria to review an actual speaking performance.
