IELTS
The full form is International English Language Testing System. It is a mandatory examination if you are planning to build your career or settle in an English speaking country. It does not evaluate your general knowledge; its main focus is to examine your compatibility with English language.
The pattern of this examination depends on your purpose to go abroad. The people who are planning to acquire education in University/Colleges where communication is being done using English as a first language have to appear for academic module, and others who plan to migrate overseas appear for general training module.
As your acquaintance with any language is judged on 4 parameters which are as follows:
- Ability to understand any language (Listening)
- To read the content of that language (Reading)
- To communicate in that language (Speaking)
- How well you express your thoughts in that language (Writing)
| Sections | Questions | Time |
|---|---|---|
| Listening | 40 | 30 mins |
| Reading | 40 | 60 mins |
| Writing | 2 Tasks | 60 mins |
| Speaking | 20 Questions(around) | 15 mins |
It is a 9 BAND examination which includes 4 Modules which are as follows
- Listening (30 Minutes Section) :
A foreign conversation is played, you need to precisely listen to it, and answer the questions based upon what you hear. Hence, this section judges you on your ability to listen and understand English language. Your concentration in this section is very important as you have to read, listen and write simultaneously with generic understanding.
- Reading (60 Minutes Section) :
You would be given multiple passages on various topics and you have to find the answers from the given passage. In this section, your comprehending skills are measured.
- Writing (60 Minutes Section) :
In this module, you have to perform two independent tasks; first task is based on your examination module. For Academic module, you need to perform graph writing and for General training module (GT), you have to do letter writing. The second task is common for both the modules, which demands you to write an essay on the given topic.
- Speaking (15-20 Minutes Section) :
Here, your one-one interview will be conducted by an IELTS examiner. In this section you will be asked multiple questions and you have to answer them accordingly. Remember here what you speak is recorded and you will be judged on how well you speak in English (i.e. General Knowledge is not checked).
GRE General Test Structure
The GRE General Test is a computer-delivered test. Its test-taker friendly design lets you skip questions within a section, go back and change answers and have the flexibility to choose which questions within a section you want to answer first.
Test sections and timing (beginning September 22, 2023)
The overall test time is about 1 hour and 58 minutes. There are five sections.
| Measure | Number of Questions | Allotted Time |
|---|---|---|
| Analytical Writing (One section) | One “Analyze an Issue” task | 30 minutes |
| Verbal Reasoning (Two sections) | Section 1: 12 questions Section 2: 15 questions | Section 1: 18 minutes Section 2: 23 minutes |
| Quantitative Reasoning (Two sections) | Section 1: 12 questions Section 2: 15 questions | Section 1: 21 minutes Section 2: 26 minutes |
The Analytical Writing section will always be first. The Verbal Reasoning and Quantitative Reasoning sections may appear in any order after the Analytical Writing section.
Test sections and timing before September 22, 2023
The overall testing time is about 3 hours and 45 minutes. There are six sections with a 10-minute break following the third section.
| Measure | Number of Questions | Allotted Time |
|---|---|---|
| Analytical Writing(One section with two separately timed tasks) | One “Analyze an Issue” task and one “Analyze an Argument” task | 30 minutes per task |
Verbal Reasoning(Two sections) | 20 questions per section | 30 minutes per section |
Quantitative Reasoning(Two sections) | 20 questions per section | 35 minutes per section |
| Unscored¹ | Varies | Varies |
| Research² | Varies | Varies |
The Analytical Writing section will always be first. The Verbal Reasoning, Quantitative Reasoning and unidentified/unscored sections may appear in any order; therefore, you should treat each section as if it counts toward your score.
Section-level adaptation
The Verbal Reasoning and Quantitative Reasoning sections are section-level adaptive. The first section of each measure (i.e., Verbal and Quantitative) is of average difficulty. The difficulty level of the second section of each of the measures depends on your overall performance on the first section.
For example, if you do very well on the first Quantitative Reasoning section, the second section of Quantitative Reasoning will be at a higher level of difficulty. The scoring for the Verbal Reasoning and Quantitative Reasoning measures takes into consideration the total number of questions answered correctly across the two sections, as well as the difficulty level of the sections.
Test design features
The advanced adaptive design of the GRE General Test allows you to move forward and backward throughout an entire section. Specific features include:
- preview and review capabilities within a section
- “Mark” and “Review” features to tag questions, so you can skip them and return later if you have time remaining in the section
- the ability to change/edit answers within a section
- an on-screen calculator for the Quantitative Reasoning section

1 An unidentified unscored section that doesn’t count toward your score may be included and may appear in any order after the Analytical Writing section. Questions in the unscored section are being tried out either for possible use in future tests or to ensure that scores on new editions of the test are comparable to scores from earlier editions.
2 An identified research section that doesn’t count toward your score may be included in place of the unscored section. The research section will always appear at the end of the test. Questions in this section are included for ETS research purposes.
