Language Testing System (IELTS) is the most common test used by
universities for foreign students to prove their language level. IELTS
is also increasingly used for immigration purposes, with many countries
requiring visa applicants whose first language is not English to submit
an IELTS grade. The system tests candidates' Reading, Writing, Listening
and Speaking in four separate papers. Usually, students must gain a good
mark in all four skills in order to gain entry to the course, job, or
country of their choice. For this reason, candidates will often sit the
exam numerous times to secure the score that they need.Powered by
