International
English Language Testing System (IELTS):Are
you planning to study or train abroad? Are you applying
to an institution and need to prove your level of English?
Do you need to raise your standard in English? Then we can
help you with an International English Language Testing
System (IELTS) exam.
IELTS
is accepted by most British, Australian, Canadian and New
Zealand academic institutions. In the United States it is
increasingly gaining recognition as an alternative to TOEFL
(Test of English as a Foreign Language).
You
can take either the Academic or General Training Reading
and Writing modules. Choose the Academic Reading and
Writing module if you are planning to undertake academic
study in a higher education institution.
If
you are planning to undertake non-academic training or apply
for immigration to Australia, Canada or New Zealand, we
recommend you take the General Training Reading and Writing
modules.
You
will be tested in listening, reading, writing and speaking
in whichever module you decide to take. If you are unsure
of which module to take, please ask our examination officer.
Fees
for the exam are Rs.12,000 for either the General Training
or Academic modules. For a full list of costs please see
our Fees
list.
We
offer IELTS at least twice a month in Kathmandu and once
every two months in Pokhara and Chitwan. Find
out when you can take your test.
You
will take the Writing, Reading and Listening papers together.
The writing and reading papers last for 60 minutes and the
listening paper for 30 minutes.
We
provide complimentary refreshments before and after these
tests
The
Speaking module may take place within a week before or after
the other modules.
You
will get your result 13 days after the exam from the reception
at the British Council in Kathmandu, or from Little Step
School in Pokhara, or the office of Small Heaven School,
Aaptari in Chitwan. Results will be provided on the test
report form.
