There is no difference in taking IELTS from either of these two.

Go ahead and just do it....

Easy Decision go with IDP

I have been to both the places and if I have to rank them in a scale of 1 to 10

I will Give IDB 9.9 and British 7

Go with IDP. I have taken IELTS test with them thrice and scored 7 on the trot.

Examination staff is very professional and you won't experience mishaps during the test be it technical in nature or otherwise.

Top-notch!

I think British Council.... anyway, to tell you frankly I haven't tried IDP. However, I find British Council here in malaysia are friendly and approachable.

In my opinion, better go to a test center which is near your place and you feel comfortable.


Good luck to you and God bless us always and guide us,....
