IELTS (International English Language Testing System)
What is IELTS?
The International English Language Testing System, or IELTS, is an international standardized test of English language proficiency for non-native English language speakers. It is jointly developed by the British Council, IDP Education, and Cambridge Assessment English
Modules
There are two modules of the IELTS:
- Academic Module
- General Training Module
The best test for you will depend on whether you want to study or work in the country you have chosen.
If you’re unsure about which IELTS test to take, here are some important differences to consider.
IELTS Academic: The IELTS Academic Test is designed for those who want to study at a university or college or for professional registration in an English-speaking country. It focuses on academic language skills and assesses your ability to understand and use complex academic vocabulary and texts.
IELTS General Training: The IELTS General Training Test is suitable for those who are planning to migrate to an English-speaking country for work experience, training programs, or secondary education. It evaluates your ability to communicate effectively in everyday social and workplace situations.
These tests differ in their focus and purpose, so it’s important to choose the one that aligns with your specific goals.
How does the IELTS Test work?
IELTS exam is divided into 4 parts
- Listening: 30 minutes (Plus 10 minutes of transfer time)
- Reading: 60 minutes
- Writing: 60 minutes
- Speaking: 11–14 minutes
The test total time is 2 hours and 45 minutes.
Listening, Reading, and Writing are completed in one sitting. The Speaking test may be taken on the same day or up to seven days before or after the other tests.
All test takers take the same Listening and Speaking tests, while the Reading and Writing tests differ depending on whether the test taker is taking the Academic or General Training versions of the test.

Australia, United States, Canada, United Kingdom, New Zealand, and Ireland are the English-speaking countries where the IELTS tests are accepted.
