What is the IELTS?

The IELTS stands for International English Language Testing System is an English language test, that is often mandatory for persons who wish to study or settle in a country with a predominantly English-speaking population. The IELTS Exam evaluates your ability to communicate effectively in English and assesses you on various factors such as listening, reading, speaking, and writing. Most universities and Canada immigration agencies accept a score of 7.0 or higher in IELTS as the minimum requirement. By following few expert tips, it is easy to get band 8 in the IELTS exam.

Take IELTS General for immigration scores and IELTS Academic for university admission.

IELTS Sections

The IELTS test intends to evaluate whether or not you will be able to communicate in English in a day-to-day scenario when you immigrate abroad to a country where the primary language of communication is English. The test evaluates you in the following sections.

  1. Listening

The listening section of the IELTS exam consists of 40 questions, which are divided into four sections.  The total time given for IELTS listening and answering the questions is 30 minutes and an additional 10 minutes is provided to the students to enable them to transfer the answers to listening answer sheet.

  1. Reading

The reading section includes three passages, and it presents 40 questions that assess your comprehension of the passage you just read. Passages can be attempted in any order, but the entire section must be completed in 60 minutes. We score each question at one mark

  1. Speaking

In the IELTS speaking section, an examiner conducts a one-to-one interview with the test taker. The test taker receives three assignments during the interview, which include talking about themselves, discussing a topic from a cue-card, and delivering a lengthy speech on a selected topic. The section is administered a few days before or after the actual test date, not on the test day itself, however. We have designed the three sub-sections to provide you with an opportunity to demonstrate your speaking skills in a variety of scenarios.

  1. Writing

The writing section of the IELTS differs for the academic and the general test. Both the tests consist of two main tasks for the writing section. The first task for IELTS – Academic asks the candidates to interpret a diagram that is provided. The examiners will require the candidate to write a letter of approximately 150 words in the general module, and they will be given 20 minutes to do so. Both the general and academic modules assign the same second task, which requires writing a 250-word response to an argument within a 40-minute time limit. The purpose of this test is to assess your ability to articulate and express your thoughts effectively. It is easier to improve your IELTS Writing Score if you have practiced well in advance.
