WHAT IS THE TEST FORMAT? 

IELTS consists of six modules. All candidates take the same Listening and Speaking Modules. There is a choice of Reading and Writing Modules according to Whether a candidate is taking the Academic or General Training version of the test. 

Listening 

This is in four sections, each with 10 questions. The first two sections are concerned with social needs. There is a conversation between two speakers and then a monologue. The final two sections are concerned with situations related to educational or training contexts. There is a conversation between up to four people and then a monologue. 

A variety of question types is used, including: multiple choice, short-answer questions, sentence completion, notes/chart/table completion, labelling a diagram, classification, matching. 

Candidates hear the recording once only and answer the questions as they listen. Ten minutes are allowed at the end to transfer answers to the answer sheet. 

Academic Reading 

There are three reading passages, of increasing difficulty, on topics of general interest and candidates have to answer 40 questions. The passages are taken from magazines, journals, books and newspapers. At least one text contains detailed logical argument. 

A variety of question types is used, including: multiple choice, short-answer questions, sentence completion, notes/chart/table completion, labelling a diagram, classincation, matching lists/phrases, choosing suitable paragraph headings from a list, identification of writer’s views/ attitudes yes, no, not given. 

General Training Reading 

Candidates have to answer 40 questions. There are three sections of increasing difficulty, containing texts taken from notices, advertisements, leaflets, newspapers, instruction manuals, books and magazines. The first section contains texts relevant to basic linguistic survival in English, with tasks mainly concerned with providing factual information. The second section focuses on the training context and involves texts of more complex language. The third section involves reading more extended texts, with a more complex structure, but with the emphasis on descriptive and instructive rather than argumentative texts. 

A variety of question types is used, including: multiple choice, short-answer questions, sentence completion, notes/chart/table completion, labelling a diagram, classihcation, matching lists/phrases, choosing suitable paragraph headings from a list, identification of writer’s views/attitudes yes, no, not given, or true, false, not given. 

Academic Writing 

There are two tasks and it is suggested that candidates spend about 20 minutes on Task 1, which requires them to write at least 150 words and 40 minutes on Task 2 250 words. The assessment of Task 2 carries more weight in marking than Task 1. 

In Task 1 candidates are asked to look at a diagram or table and to present the information in their own words. They are assessed on their ability to organise, present and possibly compare data, describe the stages of a process, describe an object or event, explain how something works. 

In Task 2 candidates are presented with a point of view, argument or problem. They are assessed on their ability to present a solution to the problem, present and justify an opinion, compare and contrast evidence and opinions, evaluate and challenge ideas, evidence or 

arguments. Candidates are also judged on their ability to write in an appropriate style.

General Training Writing 

There are two tasks and it is suggested that candidates spend about 20 minutes on Task 1, which requires them to write at least 150 words and 40 minutes on Task 2 250 words. The assessment of Task 2 carries more weight in marking than Task 1. 

In Task 1 candidates are asked to respond to a given problem with a letter requesting information or explaining a situation. They are assessed on their ability to engage in personal correspondence, elicit and provide general factual information, express needs, wants, likes and dislikes, express opinions, complaints, etc. 

In Task 2 candidates are presented with a point of view, argument or problem. They are assessed on their ability to provide general factual information, outline a problem and present a solution, present and justify an opinion, evaluate and challenge ideas, evidence or arguments 

Candidates are also judged on their ability to write in an appropriate style. 

Speaking (A revised Speaking Module will be operational from July 2001. See page 170 for details.) 

This consists of a conversation between the candidate and an examiner and takes between 10 and 15 minutes. There are five sections: 

1 Introduction The examiner and candidate introduce themselves and the candidate is encouraged to talk brieiiy about their life, home, work and interests. 

2 Extended discourse The candidate is encouraged to speak at length about some familiar topic of general interest or of relevance to their culture, place of living or country of origin. This will involve explanation, description or narration. 

3 Elicitation The candidate is given a task card with some information on it and is encouraged to take the initiative and ask questions either to elicit information or to solve a problem. 

4 Speculation and Attitudes The candidate is encouraged to talk about their future plans and proposed course of study. Alternatively the examiner may choose to return to a topic raised earlier. 

5 Conclusion The interview is concluded. Candidates are assessed on their ability to communicate effectively with native speakers of English. The assessment takes into account evidence of communicative strategies and appropriate use of grammar and vocabulary.

HOW IS IELTS SCORED? 

IELTS results are reported on a nine-band scale. In addition to the score for overall language ability IELTS provides a score, in the form of a profile, for each of the four skills (Listening Reading, Writing and Speaking). These scores are also reported on a nine-band scale. A11 ’ scores are recorded on the Test Report Form along with details of the candidate’s nationality, first language and date of birth. Each Overall Band Score corresponds to a descriptive statement which gives a summary of the English language ability of a candidate classified at that level. The nine bands and their descriptive statements are as follows: 

9 Expert User Has fully operational command of the language: appropriate, accurate and fluent with complete understanding. 

8 Very Good User -Has fully operational command of the language with only occasional 

unsystematic inaccuracies and inappropriacies. Misunderstandings may occur in unfamiliar situations. Handles complex detailed argumentation well. 

7 Good User Has operational command of the language, though occasional inaccuracies, 

inappropriacies and misunderstandings in some situations. Generally handles complex language well and understands detailed reasoning. 

6 Competent User Has generally effective command of the language despite some inaccuracies, inappropriacies and misunderstandings. Can use and understand fairly complex language, particularly in familiar situations. 

5 Modest User -Has partial command of the language, coping with overall meaning in most situations, though is likely to make many mistakes. Should be able to handle basic communication in own field. 

4 Limited User Basic competence is limited to familiar situations. Has frequent problems in understanding and expression. Is not able to use complex language. 

3 Extremely Limited User Conveys and understands only general meaning in very familiar situations. Frequent breakdowns in communication occur. 

2 Intermittent User No real communication is possible except for the most basic information using isolated words or short formulae in familiar situations and to meet immediate needs. Has great dijjiculty understanding spoken and written English. 

1 Non User Essentially has no ability to use the language beyond possibly a few isolated words. 

0 Did not attempt the test. No assessable information. 

Most universities and colleges in the United Kingdom, Australia, New Zealand and Canada accept an IELTS Overall Band Score of 6.0 or 6.5 for entry to academic programmes. IELTs scores are increasingly being recognised by Universities in the USA.

MARKING THE PRACTICE TESTS 

Listening and Reading 

The Answer key is on pages 146-167. Each item in the Listening and Reading tests is worth one mark. There are no half marks. 

Put a tiCk (×) next to each correct answer and a cross (X) next to each wrong one. Each tick will equal one mark. 

Single letter number answers

For questions where the answer is a single letter or number, you should have written only one answer. If you have written more than one, the answer must be marked wrong. 

Longer answers 

Only the answers given in the Answer key are correct. 

Sometimes part of the correct answer is given in brackets. Words in brackets are optional they are correct, but not necessary. 

Alternative words or phrases within an answer are indicated by a single slash (l). 

Sometimes there are alternative correct answers to a question. In these cases the possible answers are separated by a double slash (II). If you have written any one of these possible answers, your answer is correct. 

You will find additional notes about individual questions in the Answer key. 

Spelling 

Most answers require correct spelling. Where alternative spellings are acceptable, this is stated in the Answer key. 

Both US and UK spelling are acceptable. 

Writing 

Obviously it is not possible for you to give yourself a mark for the Writing tasks. For Tests 1, 2 and 4 and GT Test A we have provided model answers (written by an examiner) at the back of the book. It is important to note that these show just one way of completing the task, out of many possible approaches. For Test 3 and GT Test B we have provided sample answers (written by candidates), showing their score and the examiner’s comments We hope that both of these will give you an insight into what is required for the Writing module.

HOW SHOULD YOU INTERPRET YOUR SCORES? 

In the Answer key at the end of the each set of Listening and Reading answers you will find a chart which will help you assess if, on the basis of your practice test results, you are ready to take the IELTS exam. 

In interpreting your score, there are a number of points you should bear in mind. 

Your performance in the real IELTS test will be reported in two ways: there will be a Band Score from 1 to 9 for each of the modules and an Overall Band Score from 1 to 9, which is the average of your scores in the four modules. 

However, institutions considering your application are advised to look at both the Overall Band and the Bands for each module. They do this in order to see if you have the language skills needed for a particular course of study. For example, if your course has a lot of reading and writing, but no lectures, listening comprehension might be less important and a score of 5 in Listening might be acceptable if the Overall Band Score was 7. However, for a course where there are lots of lectures and spoken instructions, a score Of 5 in Listening might be unacceptable even though the Overall Band Score was 7. 

Once you have marked your papers you should have some idea of whether your Listening and Reading skills are good enough for you to try the real IELTS test. If you did well enough in one module but not in others, you will have to decide for yourself whether you are ready to take the proper test yet. 

The Practice Tests have been checked so that they are about the same level of difiiculty as the real IELTS test. However, we cannot guarantee that your score in the Practice Test papers will be refiected in the real IELTS test. The Practice Tests can only give you an idea of your possible future performance and it is ultimately up to you to make decisions based on your score. 

Different institutions accept different IELTS scores for different types of courses. We have based our recommendations on the average scores which the majority of institutions accept. The institution to which you are applying may, of course, require a higher or lower score than most other institutions. 

Sample answers or model answers are provided for the Writing tasks. The sample answers were written by IELTS candidates; each answer has been given a band score and the candidate’s performance is described. Please note that the examiner’s guidelines for marking the Writing scripts are very detailed. There are many different ways a candidate may achieve a particular band score. The model answers were written by an examiner as examples of very good answers, but it is important to understand that they are just one example out of many possible approaches.
