IELTS Test Pattern

There are three types of the IELTS test: IELTS Academic, IELTS General Training and IELTS UKVI.

IELTS Academic

The IELTS Academic Test is applicable for those who are aspiring their higher education or professional registration, especially in an English Friendly Environment. It has many of the features of English language in academic level and assesses your proficiency as of how far you are ready to begin studying or training. As academics require a higher level of language competency, this approach of language assessment has been widely supported by the institutions that recognize IELTS.

IELTS General Training

Applicable for those who want to go abroad for work / work experiences, the IELTS General Training Test focuses on basic survival skills in broad social and workplace contexts. This proficiency test, a bit lower to that of Academic Standards, is also a requirement for migration to wide range of nations including Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the UK.

IELTS UKVI

If you are applying for a UK visa, you need to take an IELTS test approved for UK Visa and Immigration (UKVI) purposes known as IELTS for UKVI. This applies to everyone coming from a non-English speaking country. While there is no change in the content, format or level of difficulty and scoring, IELTS for UKVI simply follows certain extra security protocols to ensure the authenticity of the test taker. Also, your Test Report Form (TRF) may look slightly different from the one give for IELTS Academic or General Training.

Mode of Test

There are two types IELTS tests: Pen & Paper and Computer Assisted.

Pen & Paper

In this, the regular mode of test is offered, where we use a paper to record our responses, which will be evaluated manually.

Computer Assisted

In a Computer Assisted Test, instead of using Pen and Paper, the candidate will be taking the test using a computer.

Understanding IELTS Results

You will be given a score from 1 to 9 for each part of the test – Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking. The average produces your overall band score. You can score whole (e.g., 5.0, 6.0, 7.0) or half (e.g., 5.5, 6.5, 7.5) bands in each part of the test.
