Hello!
Yes, basically you're looking at the low 30s range. The number of correct answers required to get a particular score (e.g. 7) does vary. The IELTS creators run tests to see if an individual test is slightly more/less difficult than average and vary the scores accordingly.
All the best,
David

Hello!
The simple answer is to meet with people of a similar level and talk with them. Some people prefer to use Skype, but less 'tech' based suggestions are an English corner or find out if there is a cafe nearby where you can meet similar-minded people.
All the best,
David
