Your IELTS Test-Day Checklist for Harare or Bulawayo

Confirm your venue, identification, arrival time and computer-test routine before you leave home.
01

Confirm the official details yourself

Your booking confirmation is the source of truth. Check the exact centre, date, reporting time, identification requirements and whether your Speaking test is scheduled separately.

  • Save the venue and contact details offline
  • Plan transport with extra time for Harare or Bulawayo traffic
  • Use the same identification document required by the centre
02

Prepare for your test format

The test content is the same standard on paper and computer, but your working method differs. Practise the exact input method you booked.

  • For computer IELTS, practise typing, highlighting and navigating questions
  • For paper IELTS, practise handwriting clearly and transferring answers
  • Remember that Reading does not include extra answer-transfer time
03

Protect your focus

Complete heavy preparation before test day. The final evening is for logistics, a light review and rest—not a full mock exam.

  • Charge your phone for the journey, then follow centre rules about personal items
  • Eat familiar food and carry only permitted items
  • ZUEZ prepares candidates but does not administer the official IELTS test
