CNO IELTS Eligibility

[krish_indian]

CNO IELTS requirements are below . I like to know what is standard error of measurement of 0.5 means .\

My spouse got writing 6.5 but overall she got 7.5. whether her IELTS enough for RN registration or whether she need new IELTS score for RN registration.

International English Language Testing System (IELTS)
Test Component IELTS Scores
Writing 7
Speaking 7
Listening 7.5
Reading 6.5
Total 7

These are the minimum benchmark scores that must be achieved and includes the standard error of measurement of 0.5.

NOTE: The College will only accept scores from the Academic format of the IELTS test.

Im not sure what is the standard but we both have the same problem although i failed by 0.5 in speaking. Unfortunately, cno is very strict about that and they won't accept the scores if they don't reach minimum 7 on all components.

Hi!!
I have applied for registration in Ontario. My overall ielts score is 7, with 7.5 in listening, 7.5 in reading and , 7 in speaking and 6.5 in writing. I scored 0.5 less in writing. This is the second time for giving ielts because of change in requirement in 2013. CNO says the score mention on their website includes 0.5 SEM. I don't know what does it means. I don't know what to do. would CNO accept my score or I need to give ielts again. Does anyone have any idea about this?

As far as I know, they are very strict with their EILTS. I think the best thing to do is to retake the exam

I believe it means that CNO has already taken into consideration an SEM of 0.5. In other words, their actual qualification requirement is 7.5, but they have adjusted the minimum score downwards (to 7.0) in order to factor in the SEM. It is simpler to do it this way than if it were "the minimum is 7.5, but in order to account for possible marking variances, we'll actually accept a score of 7.0". The will not give applicants yet another 0.5 points of leeway.
