Any suggested reviewer for IELTS exam?

Hi. I am a new member here in EnglishForward.com. I am taking the IELTS exam, probably next month. I am wondering if any of you know of a good reviewer/website that can help me review for the exam.

I went to www.selfaccess.com. Is this website any good? Please help. I need to tone my writing and reading skills. Thank you.

Oh, and I wish to ask my first question on grammar. What is the difference in using "It's" and "Its". I know "It's" is short for "It is". Am I correct? What about "Its"?

The It's vs. Its page If you're confused by these two little words, you've come to the right place. It's is a contraction for it is or it has.

Its is a possessive pronoun meaning, more or less, of it or belonging to it.

And there is absolutely, positively, no such word as its'.

If you can replace it[']s in your sentence with it is or it

You means "www.selfaccess.com". That's really a great site for English learners especially for those who are preparing the international exams.

Youire right. It's is a shortened version of it is. Its, on the other hand, is the possessive form of it.

My => mine
You => your
He => his
Her => her
We => our
It => its

Use "its" to show ownership.

Ex. It's hard to explain why its color just disappeared.
