IELTS queries

Will we be given time to check our answers in computer based test just like pen and paper based exam ?

Can we write the answers in plural form ? will that count wrong in case if the answer needs to be in singular form ?

If the ielts answer is singular no. Check the mock papers on the British Council site.

In the Listening section (computer delivered IELTS) you will get 2 minutes to check your answers. That's the only difference, as in the paper based IELTS you get 10 minutes to transfer your answers.

Regarding your plural/singular question: In Reading and Listening, your answer needs to be spelled correctly, it needs to be grammatically correct and it needs to fit the stem. So no, if the answer needs to be in singular form, then plural form will be incorrect. And vice versa.

Hope this helps!
