why IELTS ?

The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is a proficiency test widely used by non-native English speakers for study abroad, employment or immigration purposes.

The IELTS results are recognised by more than 10,000 organisations, including educational institutions, employers, professional associations and governments, in 140 countries around the world.

IELTS Preparation - Understanding IELTS Test Pattern

There are two versions of IELTS available for test takers – IELTS Academic and IELTS  General Training. The difference between the two relates to the purpose of the test taker. IELTS Academic is used for university admissions or professional registration in an English speaking country, while IELTS General Training is taken mainly for migration purposes. 

Though the content for the Reading and Writing sections is different for the IELTS Academic and IELTS General Training, the test format is largely similar. For both versions, the Listening, Reading and Writing tests are conducted in a single sitting, while the Speaking test is conducted face-to-face with an examiner on a separate date.

IELTS Listening test (30 minutes)

You will have to listen to four recordings and then answer the questions asked. The recordings are of native English speakers and the duration of the test is 30 minutes.

IELTS Reading test (60 minutes)

The IELTS Reading test requires you to answer 40 questions and is designed to test you on an array of reading skills. You would have to rest for gist, main ideas, details, logical arguments, skimming and figuring out the writers’ attitudes, opinions and intentions.

IELTS Writing test (60 minutes)

The IELTS writing test requires you to complete two tasks and cover topics of general interest based on the module you are taking.

IELTS Speaking test (11-14 minutes)

The IELTS Speaking test assesses your spoken English skills. The test is recorded and conducted in three parts.

IELTS Test Dates

The IELTS test dates in India are available four times a month or 48 times a year (for paper-based), and are generally held on Saturdays and Thursdays to provide flexibility and convenience to the test seekers. 

With the computer-delivered IELTS, you can choose from multiple dates and time slots in a day and get your results within 3-5 days. 

However, the availability of the IELTS dates may differ as per the test type and module you have opted for – Academic or General Training.
