The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) assesses the language ability of candidates who need to study or work where English is used as the language of communication. It is recognised by universities and employers in many countries, including Australia, Canada, New Zealand, the UK and the USA. It is also recognised by professional bodies, immigration authorities and other government agencies.

You can take the IELTS at any one of more than 270 centres in over 100 countries. Your results will be available within two weeks. You are not allowed to repeat the test within 90 days at any centre.

The IELTS Examination

The IELTS tests your skills in listening, reading, writing and speaking. All candidates take the same listening and speaking modules, but you may choose either academic or general training modules for the reading and writing tests. You are recommended to select the academic module if you are planning to enroll in a university. If you are planning to undertake non-academic training or work experience or immigrate to an English-speaking country, the general training module will more closely suit your needs. The IELTS test is 2 hours and 45 minutes in duration and consists of listening, reading, writing and speaking modules.

External Grading and Certificate (IELTS)

You will receive your test results within two weeks of taking the IELTS test. Your score is reported as a number between 1 and 9 for each module, as well as an overall score. A score of 9 is the best possible, and indicates that you are an expert user of English. A score of 1, on the other hand, indicates that the candidate cannot use English. The overall score, as well as the scores for listening and reading, are reported in half bands. The writing and speaking scores are reported in whole bands.

You can take the IELTS at any one of more than 270 centres in over 100 countries. Your results will be available within two weeks. You are not allowed to repeat the test within 90 days at any centre.
