IELTS SCORE

[charninder]

Hi,

I need urgent help regarding IELTS score.  My friend had applied for FSW and he took the test on 17.01.2009 and got overall 6.0 bands.

Here is bifurcation -


Listening - 6.5,   Speaking  - 6.5, Writing - 5.5 and Reading - 5.5

Guys plz tell me how much marks he can get for these bands?  Is there any link to judge the score/marks?

Seniors plz reply..

Thanks and regards.

HELLO CHARNINDER,
AS FAR I KNOW YOUR OVERALL SCORE SHOULD BE 6 POINT'S , I THINK THE ACTUAL SCORE REQUIREMENT IS 7 POINT'S.

bifurcation???

is it that the points awarded based on the individual scoring from IELTS chaged recently? i believe that the people who had applied in 2005 and 2006 they had to get indivdual score of 7 in L/W/S/R to get the maximum of 16points but now it is believed to be some chages as if you get 6.5 for writing and all others 7 you can get the maximum.Can anyone clarrify this

If you took the test after 28/11/08 you would get

Listening 5  = 1
Speaking 6  = 2
Writing  5  = 1
Reading 4   = 1

Total 5 points.

Hi,

I have got the link http://www.cic.gc.ca/english/information/applications/guides/EG72.asp once posted by Rupeshhari which is a good source for calculating IELTS score.  In my case it will be S: 6.5 (4) + L: 6.5 (2) + R: 5.5 (2) + Wr: 5.5 (2) = 10 .

Thanks.

Hi mibrahim,

I am sorry, I have just checked your quote.  You are right.  My friend will get 10 points.  This information was vital because now his total points will be 68.   Anyway, thanks for providing me the appropriate link.


Thanks everybody for prompt replies.

Cheers..

This will give us all a clear view of the changes came into effect in IELTS scoring

requirements. No need to panic, its the change they made which makes no substantial difference

from the previous one.

Guys

please

go to the official guidelines and instruction by CIC to see how IELTS points are calculated

do the calculation yourself, then you cannot blame others if you cannot add up!!!
