If you make little slips, it is generally not a problem. Minor mistakes are expected and won't negatively affect your score. Just make sure not to make the same mistake multiple times. If you realize you have made a mistake, you can correct yourself and continue speaking. The key aspects are to maintain fluency, coherence, and clarity.

No, you cannot change the topic in IELTS Speaking Part 2. Try to speak as closely to the topic as possible, try to relate it to your personal experience or use your imagination to create a fluent response. Just stay focused, and organize your thoughts properly. Speak with confidence within the topic framework.

If you cross the 2-minute time limit in IELTS Speaking Part 2, the examiner will politely stop you. Do not worry! This will not negatively impact your score - you will be assessed on the basis of the quality of the response not just its length. So, it is important to put across your points within the time limit. You won't be given extra time to speak.

In this part of IELTS Speaking, you will deliver a 2-minute speech on a given topic. The topic will have 3-4 questions from which you can make your response. You will have 1 minute for preparation. You can make notes and can refer to them while speaking. Avoid reading out your notes.

Some of the Sentence Completion questions may need more than just one word to finish the sentence. The instructions for these questions will specify if you need a single word or several words to complete sentence.
