The IELTS or the International English Language Testing System is a widely accepted test of the English language and accepted in many foreign universities and institutions all over the world, especially across Canada, Australia, the UK, New Zealand, and the USA.

The scores of an IELTS examination are assigned, in terms of bands, and the range of the score is from 0 to 9 in which the O score is given to the least performing, and 9 bands is given to the expert in the language.

The passing score of the candidate or the minimum score requirement will depend on the University to which the candidate has applied or the immigration program through which he is applying for selection.
