IELTS indicator

When testcenters are closed during the coronavirus pandemic, some online alternatives have been developed. IELTS has launched the IELTS Indicator, which is an alternative to the TOEFL home test or the Duolingo Test of English.

I knew from one of my friends that IELTS is one of the best tests. I made a little research online upon the language tests and I decided to take IELTS.

I took the IELTS test, because I found that it is the only one that is being asked in every country. I had planned to send more applications to other universities in different countries in case I wasn’t accepted.

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.

As I had always been fond of the British examinations in English, I registered for the IELTS exam. I should admit it was a remarkable experience; despite the fact that the examinations were demanding and in consecutive order without any break in between, I do remember this examination for its impressive results, as I got a 7.5/9.

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

Thanks to the Vikings, Iceland isn’t named after the fact that it’s an icy place (at least not anymore). But, make no mistake – Iceland has plenty of snow and glaciers, just like its ice-covered counterpart, Greenland. Iceland is also a place full of mythical wonders, located in the North Atlantic Ocean, with active volcanoes and glacial rivers covering its tiny land area – a land of fire and ice, if you will. Ranking number 3 on the World Happiness Index, Iceland is home to peaceful and adventurous people. For international students, if you want to find a unique place to pursue your Master’s or Bachelor’s degree, you’ll find plenty of mountains to climb in Iceland. Iceland’s higher education is relatively recent. In fact, their first university was founded in 1911. This means that Iceland’s universities were formed in a modern context, rather than an ancient or medieval one. For students, that means you’re entering an environment where universities are interested in staying relevant, current, and innovative. Rather than relying on old traditions and systems, Iceland universities are interested in providing interesting programmes to prepare you for a 21st century environment. So, if you’re looking for a place to study and advance your career potential, sail on over to Iceland to enroll in one of their wonderful university programmes.

To study in English at one of the universities in Iceland, you may need a proof of English proficiency. There are several standardised English tests that you can take to proof your English level, such as the PTE (Pearson Test of English), TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language), CAE (Cambridge Advanced English) and IELTS (International English Language Testing System), offered by British Council and IDP. IELTS is the most popular of these tests, with British Council offering more than 500 test locations and being accepted by more than 9,000 organisations world-wide.
