What is IELTS?
IELTS stands for International English Language Testing System. It is a proficiency test that
checks your English language skills. Non-native speakers, meaning people who are living in
a country where English is not spoken as the primary language or the first language, are
required to take this test. For example, if you want to go to Australia to study or work, you
have to write IELTS to show your proficiency.
The test was created by Cambridge University, and 80% of the English used in IELTS has a
British accent. Therefore, it is recommended to watch British accent movies to get
acquainted with the accent.
Types and Categories of IELTS
IDP and British Council: Cambridge University created the test, and they gave the
responsibility to IDP and British Council to conduct the test in various countries. Both are the
same, and there is no difference between them.
General Training and Academic: If you are planning to work abroad, go for General Training.
For any kind of course, go for Academic. If you take the wrong test, you will waste a lot of
money, and the score will be invalid.
Paper and Online: It is recommended to go for Paper and Pencil as it is easier to read and
write on paper than a screen.
Scoring in IELTS
In IELTS, there are no marks or points. You are scored from one to nine, where nine is the
highest and one is the lowest. The score is called a band. There is no score of zero, which
means you did not appear for the exam. You will get a score between one and nine,
depending on your situation or requirement. If you score nine or eight, that is excellent.
However, there are four modules in IELTS: listening, reading, writing, and speaking. If you
scored less in any of these modules, less compared to the requirement, you would not
qualify.
Understanding the IELTS Scoring System
When taking the IELTS exam, it is important to understand the scoring system. The
requirements for different companies or institutions may vary, but it is generally required to
achieve a score of at least eight bands in listening, seven in reading, seven in writing, and
seven in speaking. The scores for each module and overall score are important.
It is also important to understand the difference between bands and zephyr. Zephyr stands
for the Common European Framework as a reference for languages, which tests the levels
of language. Bands are created from one to nine and correspond to the levels of zephyr. For
example, a score of 8.5 to 9 is considered C2 while above that is C1. Listening and reading
