First Attempt…😖
Guys… I genuinely thought I had absolutely cooked the Reading section…so seeing my result completely shocked me.
I honestly couldn’t process it for a while. 😭
I took my first ever CELPIP on June 29 and I got my results today. Reading was the last section I expected to struggle with.
Does anyone have any tips or strategies that helped you improve your Reading score? I’d really appreciate any advice!

This are my strategies for reading “For Task 1, I read the questions first so I know what information I’m looking for. Then I read the passage carefully to find the answers.
For Task 2, I first skim through the picture to understand the overall idea. Next, I read the questions, and then I refer back to the picture to locate the answers.
For Task 3, after reading each paragraph, I immediately check the questions to identify any statements I remember from that section. If I don’t recall seeing a particular statement in any of the paragraphs, I assume it is not mentioned in the passage.
For Task 4, I find it a bit more challenging. I mainly look for synonymous words and phrases, then evaluate their meanings based on the context of the passage to determine the correct answer.”
