Authentic information from British Council IELTS

We only show authentic data from IELTS and the British Council.

For applying for a master in Lund University I did the IELTS language test. There are a lot of dates for giving a test, so you don’t have to stress about the time of applying.

I chose The Hague University because it has the program I like and accepts my IELTS score.

I have chosen IELTS, because it is cheaper and reflects more what you can deal with than how you can circle the grammar closed questions. I liked that test, because you can handle the topics of the two essays there as you wish.

I did the IELTS test when I was applying for the programme and now I am studying IT in Germany!

I took the IELTS test and it was really helpful to increase my admission chances to this programme. It is easy if you pay attention to good preparation.

More than 1000 British Council test locations
Accepted by more than 11,500 organisations
More than 3 million tests taken every year
