With IELTS on computer, you take the same IELTS test, but you type your answers, in a computer lab at an IELTS test centre. The Speaking section of the test is still face-to-face in a private room with an IELTS Examiner.
The main benefits of taking IELTS on computer are:
IELTS on computer is accepted for Canadian immigration and by over 750 organisations across the country.
IELTS on computer is available up to three times a day, seven days a week, giving you more choice on when you take the test.
Check availability with your local test centre, as dates and times vary across the country.
Your IELTS on computer results will be available to preview online in just three to five days. We will also send you your Test Report Form by post.
You will need to attend a local IELTS centre in order to take your test. No technical computer skills or knowledge is required, and you can still plan out your answers on paper. Staff will be available to support you, should you have any technical questions.
British Council provides free materials to help you prepare for your test. For more information visit our IELTS on computer preparation webpage.
