7.0


or

overall 7.0

reading 7.0
listening 7.0
writing 6.5
speaking7.5


I know its a no-brainer that 1st score is 0.5 bands better, but just 6.5 in speaking gives a pretty bad impression, doesn't it? considering our daily conversations are speaking, which one will put a better impression on the visa officer? / or which one will not put a bad impression on the visa officer?

In my opinion both scores are good..infact very good...there is no such good or bad impression thing for different modules...Firstly your Ielts score depends on the requirement of your course of study..if you attains that..its fine..and secondly...there is 6 overall(no less thant 5.5) for SPP and for other PG or masters there is overall 6.5 and also no less than 6.5 requirement...according to rules...:)
