IELTS to let students in India retake single modules from March 2023
Starting March 2023, students will have the option of retaking the IELTS for one component if they did not get the desired score on the first attempt.
Currently, students must retake the entire test for all four modules: listening, reading, writing and speaking. So, if a student wants to improve their band score, they will have to take the whole test again instead of only retaking the module.
The pilot project of the "One Skill Retake' was introduced in Australia in November.
"With the right preparation and support we know our test takers achieve the best score the first time round. However, we listened to our test-takers, and they told us they wanted the opportunity to retake one section of the test if they didn't get the score they were aspiring for one test day. With One Skill Retake, test-takers can get their study, migration or work applications back on track, "Warwick Freeland, managing director of IELTS IDP Education, said.
Details on how much retaking the modules will cost, or how many times as student can opt for a retake are yet to be released.
The International English Language Testing System (IELTS) is a standardized English language proficiency test to help you work, study or migrate to a country where English is the native language.
IELTS is the most popular test for those looking to migrate to Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the UK and is globally recognised by more than 11,000 employers, universities, schools and immigration bodies.
