Authentic information from British Council IELTS

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

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.

The universities I applied for had all language requirements, so I took IELTS. Considering the fact that I prepared for it at home and I started with a very basic level of writing I eventually passed the test.

I did the IELTS test and I suppose it is easy to get a good score if you try really hard.

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