Hi there,
I have always concerned about the listening exam of Ielts. Spelling is important and if I get the spell wrong definitely I am going to lose marks but for instance, in certain listening tests there is addresses and names which include "P" or "B" and I am always get confused about them for example :
Pangborn is the correct answer , during spelling I wrote :
bangborn
is it still wrong although this is considered as a name not real English word ?
