IELTS LISTENING

Hello everyone! I watched many videos and took an IELTS preparation course, however I still have not found all the answers to my questions about listening. One of my questions is this. My IELTS teacher said that many students make mistakes in the way they write their responses for the listening comprehension. If you do the practise listening test, you might notice that your answer was right but the way you wrote it was not right. So you get 0.
For example: writing the time as 9:15 is wrong. It needs to be written 9.15.
Or another one: 50 km - wrong. It needs to be 50 kilometres.
Please, share if any of you know these tricky parts about putting the answer.

Hi Olichka,

IELTS teacher told me that I could write down all listening answers in capital letters so I would not lose mark because of capital letter issues.
