Subject: got IELTS Results
  Just received my IELTS Results for the 08/13 Vancouver sitting:

L : 8.5 (in line with expectations, missed 2-3)
R : 8.0 (Below Expectation, was expecting 9 or 8.5)
W : 8 (in line)
S : 8 (in line, It went very well except that I only spoke for approx 70 seconds on the given topic)

OverAll : 8

Anyway, who cares, that gives me 16 for Language and 72 total. Sending in my applcation in a week !

Thanks guys

I just did mine last week in Kitchener, Ontario. I think i did well on L and R only, and so so on W and S. Hope i still can get 7 on those two parts and have a total point of 16 for my skilled worker application.

Can anyone give some comments about whether the result you receive is usually "higher" or "lower" than your first expectation?

I would say I was being too optimistic expecting a better score. But in the end, I guess they judge you correctly. Being from a non English speaking country and learning English mainly thru experience, I can NOT be a PERFECT English user.

L & R are objective tests so one can hope to get a certain mark, but you never know where you made a mistake. one mistake is sometime enough to bring your score down by 0.5 mark in L & R.

I would say, You´ll get a score in line with how good you are. That may or may not be in line with your "Expectations"
(Unless you really made a blunder somewhere)
