Test Format for IELTS?
Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking are all tested in the IELTS exam. The Listening, Reading, and Writing exams will all be taken on the same day, one after the other, with no breaks. Your Speaking test can be scheduled on the same day as the other three tests, or up to seven days before or after them, depending on your test center. The whole test takes less than three hours.
Why is the IELTS format fairer for you?
