Which IELTS test to practice
For university admission, practice IELTS Academic. It is the IELTS test for study at undergraduate or postgraduate level. IELTS General Training is meant for migration and for training or study below degree level. Listening and Speaking are the same in both tests; only Reading and Writing differ.
The score to aim for
Each university sets its own IELTS entry score.
Before you book the real test
IELTS recommends that results count as valid for two years after the test. A university can choose to accept older results. IELTS is ending the paper-based test and delivering all tests on computer; timing varies by market. Check before you book: Who accepts IELTS.
