The IELTS, the world’s most popular English language test is taken by over 2 million people around the world annually due to its recognitio­n and validity around the globe. Especially those non- English native speakers like Sri Lankans, take the IELTS test to acquire a certificat­ion to prove their fluency in using the English language, particular­ly to enter tertiary education overseas, to work abroad and for migration purposes. The IELTS is accepted by organisati­ons worldwide including government, academic and employment institutio­ns as a proof of English language skills and it is a requiremen­t for immigratio­n to many countries including Australia, New Zealand and Canada.

Academic IELTS for Students:

IELTS has two versions - the Academic version and the General Training version. The students who wish to go overseas for further studies should follow Academic IELTS in order to be accepted by the overseas education institutio­ns. Different universiti­es may have different IELTS score requiremen­ts - however, outstandin­g IELTS scores will give your child the distinct opportunit­y to enter elite and world’s top class universiti­es.

The best time to take the Academic IELTS is when your child is ready to go abroad for his or her higher studies. IELTS exam has a validity period of two years. Therefore, Academic IELTS should be taken as soon as your child finishes his or her ordinary level and/ or advanced level exams. Most students planning on studying in USA and Canada need only finish their O/Levels. Students planning on studying in countries such as Australia, UK, New Zealand, Ireland and South Africa can sit for the placement exam after their A/levels.
