Which IELTS Do You Need?

IELTS Academic vs General Training

Both tests use the same Listening and Speaking modules. The Reading and Writing sections differ. Choosing the wrong type is a costly mistake — BSL's free demo includes a free consultation to confirm which one you need.

🎓
Academic

IELTS Academic

Required for undergraduate and postgraduate university admission in English-speaking countries. Tests your ability to handle complex academic language.

  • University admissions (UK, Canada, Australia, USA, NZ)
  • Postgraduate and doctoral programs
  • Professional registration (nursing, medicine, law)
  • Typical requirement: 6.0 – 7.5 bands
  • Reading: academic texts, graphs, diagrams
  • Writing: data analysis (Task 1) + essay (Task 2)
✈️
General Training

IELTS General Training

Required for work visas, permanent residency (PR), migration, and secondary education abroad. Tests practical everyday English language skills.

  • Canada PR — Express Entry, PNP (typically 6.0+)
  • Australia PR — Skilled migration (typically 6.0+)
  • UK work visas and settlement (typically 5.5+)
  • Secondary school / vocational training abroad
  • Reading: general texts, notices, workplace documents
  • Writing: formal letter (Task 1) + essay (Task 2)
ℹ️
IELTS Goes Fully Digital from Mid-2026
From mid-2026, IELTS will no longer be available as a paper-based test globally and will transition to a digital-only format. The writing component will offer a "Writing on Paper" option in selected regions. The skills assessed and band score system remain unchanged. BSL's curriculum and mock tests are fully computer-delivered and already aligned with this change.
