IELTS Score

A good IELTS score is mandatory for admission in the universities of UK, Australia, Canada, and New Zealand. Apart from a good IELTS score Universities also expect a good GPA (Grade Point Average) from the students from their past education.

You will receive a separate Band Score for each section. The four Band Scores, one for each section are added together and averaged for an Overall Band Score. Each Band has a statement giving a summary of the English at that level. There are nine Band levels, from one (non-user) to nine (expert user).

The minimum score accepted for a course ranges from 5.0 to 7.5, depending upon courses and institutes you are applying to. The most common requirement is a band score of 6 to 6.5.

Overall IELTS band scores and Listening and Reading IELTS band scores are reported in half bands. Writing and Speaking band scores are reported in whole bands. This feature helps the Universities in following their guidelines at the time of admission.

Test Reports have a validity of two years. You can retake the test if you do not achieve the desired score but not before three months from the first test date.
