  • Don't eyeball it—use the passage. Highlight the exact phrase.

  • Look for unique words (e.g., “structuralism, ” “cognitive elite”). Those only appear once.

  • If you spot a synonym instead of the literal word from the answer key, you're wrong. IELTS won't accept “skills” when the passage says “competencies.”

  • Quick check: after filling blanks, reread the sentence. If it feels off, you've probably missed a preposition or article (e.g., “the, ” “an”).

There no one answer for this. Like, TOEFL is better if you good with computer and like multiple choice question. IELTS maybe easier if you like pen paper test or want talk face-to-face. PTE all computer and give result fast sometimes. So which English proficiency test easiest, it always depend on you.
