Our clothes affect how we feel, and how we conduct our behavior. Other people can sense if we appear confident and comfortable. Not only that, they might even reflect what they see in us.
On test day, it’s important to project an image that says you’re intelligent, that you take the exam seriously, and that you’re relaxed. You want to be comfortable while sitting through the Writing and Reading sections of the test, but you also want to show your best self to the Speaking section examiner.
In order to do both, consider the following “business casual” items:
Slacks: These are the formal pants that would go with a suit. If they’re black, they can go with almost anything.
Boots and leggings: For women, remember to stick with something comfortable — no high heels.
Blouse or collared shirt: For men, there’s probably no need for a necktie, but a nice button-up shirt can allow you to look and feel relaxed while appearing professional.
You might want to stay away from:
Sweat pants or suits: These might look lazy, even if they are comfortable.
Blue jeans: While jeans are better than sweat pants, you might look better and feel just as relaxed in a nice pair of slacks.
T-shirts: This might come off as too casual — especially if its a t-shirt with images or text on it.
