Which IELTS test to practice
For Purdue University, practice IELTS Academic. General Training is not accepted. IELTS Online Academic and the IELTS Indicator both count. Listening and Speaking are the same in both modules; only Reading and Writing change. Academic Reading uses journal and textbook passages, and Writing Task 1 describes a chart or diagram.
The score to aim for
| Applies to | IELTS overall band | IELTS band in each skill |
|---|---|---|
| Undergraduate admission | 6.5 | 6.0 in each section |
| Graduate School (OGSPS) minimum, every graduate program | 6.5 | Reading 6.5, Listening 6.0, Speaking 6.0, Writing 5.5 |
Purdue words the undergraduate figure as what applicants generally have, not as a cut-off. Your test date must fall within the two years before you apply.
