✍️ Key Features of the IELTS Reading Test:

There are two different types of IELTS Tests in Reading :  

1. IELTS General Training Reading

2. IELTS Academic Reading 

The IELTS speaking test is separated into THREE Sections. Each section is allocated 20 minutes. The total duration is 60 minutes. Each question is worth 1 mark.

Question Types:

A variety of question types are used, chosen from the following; multiple choice, identifying information, identifying the writer’s views/claims, matching information, matching headings, matching features, matching sentence endings, sentence completion, summary completion, note completion, table completion, flow-chart completion, diagram label completion and short-answer questions.

Passage Sources:

Texts are taken from books, journals, magazines, and newspapers, and have been written for a non-specialist audience. All the topics are of general interest. They deal with issues which are interesting, recognizably appropriate, and accessible to test takers entering undergraduate or postgraduate courses or seeking professional registration. The passages may be written in a variety of styles, for example narrative, descriptive or discursive/argumentative. At least one text contains detailed logical argument. Texts may contain non-verbal materials such as diagrams, graphs, or illustrations. If texts contain technical terms a simple glossary is provided.

Responses:

Test takers are required to transfer their answers to an answer sheet during the time allowed for the test. No extra time is allowed for transfer. Care should be taken when writing answers on the answer sheet as poor spelling and grammar are penalized.
