What is the IELTS General?
IELTS General Training is an internationally recognised English test. This version of IELTS (International English Language Testing System) is intended for people who want to assess their level of English for professional or general reasons, for example if they are immigrating to an English-speaking country or studying at an English-language university. This exam is very popular; every year around 3 million people take it worldwide, according to the British Council France website.
To register for the IELTS Test, you are required to contact the British Council. You can register directly with one of the British Council's examination centers, but registration can also be done online. Registering online is easier, faster and more secure. Registration must be done at least one month before taking the test (however you are encouraged to register 2 months in advance to make sure you have a spot and to be able to manage your availability, to the best). Go to the official website of the British Council, in the section “Take an exam” then “IELTS” to register through just a few clicks.
The fees vary depending on the country. The fees can be paid directly online at the time of registration, through bank transfer in the following days, directly with the British Council Paris or by sending a check to the headquarters at the British Council.
You can take the IELTS in these countries: Canada, UK, Ireland, Germany, Belgium, Netherlands, Switzerland, etc.
IELTS is a standardized English exam, whose structure remains identical each time they pass. To boost your success rate, it is essential to learn and understand the instructions and how the exercises of this test are carried out. A preparation phase including standard exercises, several mock tests but also English grammar and vocabulary lessons, which allow you to get used to the structure of the exam and the precise rules. This type of IELTS training and preparation program will allow you to avoid unpleasant surprises on the day of the test and detect “traps” more easily.
Contrary to popular belief, being naturally good at English is not enough to pass IELTS successfully. Many candidates who have a good level but don’t prepare enough for the test are surprised and then obtain a score much below their true potential.
To prepare for IELTS, some people choose to favor intensive courses or language courses, while others combine face-to-face training with online preparation.
