Your life is a wonderful journey and we are very proud to be a part of it, even if this is a small part!

GT IELTS Test:

The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) measures your language proficiency out of a 9 band score. IELTS General Training (GT IELTS) has four components – Writing, Speaking, Listening and Reading. You will be assigned a band score for each component (Writing, Speaking, Listening and Reading) and then an overall band score. Learn more about IELTS Band Score and Test Results from IELTS Result FAQ section.

IELTS General Training test measures a candidate’s English language proficiency in a practical, everyday context. People take IELTS General Training to study or get training in secondary education/at a college (below degree level) or migrate to an English-speaking country. However, a host of other countries also demands IELTS to accept admission to an educational institute or for migration.

Your speaking test can be scheduled up to a week before or after the other tests based on the country you take the test. Nevertheless, other components of the test (Listening, Reading and Writing) would be on the same date with no breaks in between. Your test centre will advise you about the schedule prior to your test. Once you take the test, your score will be valid for the next two years.

IELTS creates new opportunities for you:

IELTS is accepted in more than 80 countries including China and the USA. IELTS is the high-stakes English test for study, migration or work. It is taken by millions of candidates each year and its popularity is increasing faster than ever before. So, if you need to take a language assessment test to prove your proficiency in the English language, IELTS is the right choice for you.

Bio-metric security, secured registration process, standard and fair exams, professional examiners and transparency in assessment and result publication protects and ensures test integrity of IELTS. If you take an IELTS test, you do not need to worry about its integrity and clarity.

Your preparation for IELTS should be easy with IELTS GT:

If you are a student trying to get enrolled in the secondary education level, or a professional ready to take some sort of training to get your dream job, or a person who wants to migrate to a foreign country, you are in the right place. The website has five main sections and each one is designed to help you walk towards your success in IELTS.

IELTS Preparation section gives you comprehensive preparation materials for your IELTS GT exam. The materials are for four sections (Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing) of the IELTS GT exam. You can navigate to a particular section and start preparing for this section. The materials are designed in a way so that you do not need any assistance from a teacher. They are self-preparation materials and you are welcome to ask any question via our commenting system whenever a question pops up in your mind.

IELTS Sample Answer section includes questions taken from real IELTS GT tests and provides you with model answers. You should go through this section and sub-sections to get familiar with the types of questions you would actually encounter in your real IELTS GT test. The questions and answers are categorised according to GT IELTS components (i.e. Speaking, Listening, Reading and Writing). The sample answer(s) added to each question is to help you generate some ideas on how to approach a question and not for memorising. In fact, you should never memorise an answer for your IELTS GT test.

IELTS GT Tips has two different types of resources – one to help you prepare for the test and the other one to let you crack your exam and achieve your desired band score. Preparation tips are categorised based on the test components and so do the ‘crack your IELTS GT exam’ section. However, a sub-section of IELTS GT Tips has been devoted to general tips which would give you more insights into the GT IELTS test, its components and questions types. We welcome you to include any tips you think would be useful for others and please add them as a comment. This is a hub for GT IELTS candidates and your participation is more than appreciated.

Generating ideas for the IELTS Cue Cards (also called Candidate Task Cards) is difficult for many test-takers. We have dedicated a whole section with the model answers to some such cue card topics. We would advise you to read those model answers and then generate your own ideas for each topic.

The FAQ section tries to answer commonly asked questions regarding your IELTS GT test. We have tried to make this section as comprehensive as possible so that you find “a question” and “answer to that question” without wasting much time. The FAQ section has answers to both generally asked questions on GT IELTS and answers to each section of the IELTS. It also answers questions asked about the test day and test results  If you do not find a question or a suitable answer to your query, simply put a comment at the end of the page and we will get back to you with an answer.

The Download section contains .pdf and other resources to help you understand the IELTS GT test even better. IELTS GT registration form, IELTS scoring mechanism, band score explanation, answer sheets, list of topics for preparation and other resources make it a worth visiting section for all IELTS GT test takers. Advise us how can we enrich this section by dropping a comment.

Visit the IELTS Quiz section and take some interesting quizzes to assess your understanding of the test. Those quizzes are fun to take and help you find out if there is anything you do not know or confused about IELTS and four modules of this test.

“IELTS Life Skills” section offers a good number of resources and model tests to help you pass the test.

You can even take the GT IELTS on a computer, also known as the ‘Computer-delivered IELTS‘. Please find more details about this test from Computer-delivered IELTS FAQs before you register for this test.

We have devoted a great deal of time to built this website and we love what we do. If you find this website helpful for your IELTS GT test, our countless hours’ of effort would be paid off.
