    Understanding IELTS Structure is Important

    Loading

    If you have plans to study abroad, chances are the university or college you want to be admitted to has already requested an IELTS or PTE score in order to proceed forward with your application. English proficiency exams are mandated at most places, which can further determine your visa status. If you do not qualify well in the proficiency exam, chances are that it can hinder your chances of studying abroad altogether.

    Sitting for any English proficiency test is one of the first few steps one takes when it comes to starting an application for studying abroad. It is important that the base of this application is correct. Therefore, it is often recommended that you take on either IELTS or PTE coaching in Ludhiana. Having a set schedule as well as an organized manner of dissemination of information can help in having better preparation for the exam in general.

    Before you sit for the exam, it is vital that you completely understand the structure of it. It is one of the most important steps in preparation for an IELTS exam. The IELTS exam is divided into four categories:

    • Reading
    • Writing
    • Listening 
    • Speaking 

    In order to score good marks on the IELTS test, it is important to score well in all of the sections of the paper. The resultant score is composed of all of the aforementioned sections, wherein the candidates get tested on their proficiency skills in attaining a firm grasp of the language from all the avenues. 

    Under IELTS Academic, both the Listening and Reading sections have 40 questions each, which one needs to complete in 30 and 60 minutes. At the same time, the Writing section needs to be completed in 60 minutes, with a 150 and a 250-word essay required. Lastly, in the Speaking section, a personal interview is conducted, with a task card as well as a general discussion. This usually takes about 10-15 minutes.

    On the other hand, IELTS General Training follows largely the same pattern as the IELTS Academic for the Listening, Reading and Speaking section. For the Writing section, instead of requiring a 150-word essay, they ask for a letter instead. 

    It is imperative that one has a clear understanding of how IELTS is structured in order to plan ahead and prepare accordingly. One cannot ignore a single section either, for most applications require you to score well in all the phases of the IELTS exam. A student can only showcase their proficiency when they score well in all the aspects of the exam. It stands to present the grasp one has on the language.
