Over 35 lac people give the this exam each year.

IELTS Academic Vs IELTS General

There are two main versions of IELTS. Test takers can choose either IELTS Academic or IELTS Generalversions of the test. Most univeristies & colleges need the Academic version. One will need to appear for the General version for most employers and visa requirements like Canada express entry or Australia PR.

Both versions of the test consist of four separate components, assessing the four language skills –Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking.

Why is IELTS Preparation essential?

IELTS is scored on a scale of 0 to 9 bands. To meet the Canada PR requirements, Australia PR requirements or study visa requirements for any country you need high bands. Although its a English test one does need to understand & practice each section of the test. Since one needs to meet the minimum bands individually in each section its important to get proper coaching else one may end up wasting precious time & money on repeating attempts.
