You may either book your IELTS test online or visit your nearest IDP branch to book it offline. Here’s how: Log on to our IELTS India website. Select the option ‘Register for Test.’ Select your preferred test – computer-delivered IELTS/ paper-based (IELTS, IELTS for UKVI or Life Skills). Select your test type/module – Academic or General Training for IELTS, IELTS for UKVI, A1 and B1 for Life Skills (be extremely careful while choosing the module you wish to take). Pick your desired test location/city (from the available IELTS test centres in India). Once done, you will find a list of dates available for your preferences. Select your desired date and time slot. Fill up the required details and complete your online application. Remember, you will also have to upload a clear, scanned colour copy of your passport to complete the process. Proceed to pay the test fee.

IELTS has a strict booking and cancellation policy to be fair to all of our test takers. Changing any of your booking details can be done through the test centre where you booked your test. If you postpone or cancel your application more than five weeks before the test date, you will receive a refund, minus an administration charge. If you postpone or cancel within five weeks of the test date, you will be charged the full fee unless you have a serious medical reason. If you provide a medical certificate within five days of the test date, we will be happy to provide you with a refund minus the local administrative cost.

It is vital to fulfil the Writing task, especially Task 2, in order to demonstrate your skills. Writing Task 2 is worth twice as many marks as Task 1. 25 percent of the Writing score for Task 2 (GT and Academic) is based on the completeness of the response. Make sure you respond to all parts of the task. This criterion is referred to as “Task Response”. If all parts of the Writing Task 2 are addressed, a person will score band 6 or higher for this quarter of their Task 2 score. If the task is not fully addressed, an examiner must award less than band 6 for this criterion. So responding to every individual part of a Writing task is very important. The remaining 75 percent of the score for Task 2 in Writing is based on vocabulary, accurate grammar and the structure and linking of ideas. Read the assessment criteria used for Academic and General Training writing tests carefully before your test day.
