PART – 2 CUE CARD
Describe an important decision that you made
You should say:
– What the decision was
– How you made your decision
– What the results of the decision were
– And explain why it was important
SAMPLE ANSWER
IELTS Speaking Test
We all have to make decisions from time to time. Some decisions are simple, like choosing what to wear or what to eat. However, some decisions can have a lasting impact on our lives, such as selecting a career or a life partner.
One important decision I made was choosing my subjects for Senior Secondary. After completing my 10th grade, I had to decide between medical, non-medical, commerce, or humanities (arts) streams.
IELTS Speaking Test
Many of my friends opted for the non-medical stream, but I realized that physics was not my strong subject. I discussed my options with my parents, but they encouraged me to make the decision myself. Seeking guidance, I approached my teacher, Mrs. Promilla, who was also my mentor and lived in my neighbourhood.
She advised me to choose commerce or arts, knowing that my strengths were better suited for these fields. Although my friends influenced me to take up non-medical, I trusted my teacher’s advice and chose arts.
IELTS Speaking Test
This was an important decision because my future career depended on it. Today, I feel content with my choice. I am performing well academically and have enough time to explore my interests.
In my free time, I have joined dance and music classes, which I enjoy a lot.

Part 3 Follow Up Questions
How do people usually make important decisions?
I think people usually make important decisions by consulting with weighing out the pros and cons. Moreover, they normally ask loved ones or their friends for advice before making such decisions. We find comfort in decisions when someone whose judgement we respect, agrees with us on the decision.
Do you think the influence of advertising is good?
In most cases yes. They create awareness and increase demand and sales, which ultimately boosts the economy. However, advertisements of fast foods and unhealthy sugary drinks have also led to diseases like obesity and diabetes. So, there is certainly a downside too.

Do you think advertisements can influence our decisions when shopping?
Yes, we consider products of brands whose advertisements we have seen to be better. It just creates the impression that it is a good brand. Also advertisements help us make more informed decisions as we learn about the features of the products through ads.
Who can children turn to for help when making a decision?
Children can turn to the adults in their life like parents, grandparents and teachers. Today, internet is also a good source of information, so they can always ask for advice on the well-reputed websites before making any crucial decisions.
