English test questions
IELTS or PTE: which is easier?
Neither, for everyone. PTE is computer-based with fast results; IELTS has a face-to-face speaking test. Your diagnostic test shows which suits you.
Do I need IELTS for a UK Student visa?
For a degree at a UK university, the university usually assesses your English and states it on your CAS. Below degree level, a Secure English Language Test is normally required.
Can I study abroad without IELTS?
Often, yes. Many universities accept other tests, a medium of instruction letter or strong school English results.
How long does preparation take?
It depends on the gap to your target score. We plan backwards from your application deadlines.
