Choose your module

IELTS has two versions. The test taker’s performance is assessed on a band between 1 (non-user) to 9 (expert user).

Academic Module is recommended for those who want to study at a university abroad. Almost all universities in the UK, the USA and other countries require from their international students to have IELTS Academic Module certificate.
General Module is designed for those who want to complete their secondary education in an English-speaking country, for participants of work experience / training programmes, and those who need it for immigration purposes.

All candidates take the same Listening and Speaking tests but different Reading and Writing tests.
