The test result is published in the form of a report, which places candidates on a scale of one to nine according to language ability. There is a score for each of the four modules and also an overall score. IELTS can be taken at test centres in over 100 countries. Test dates are fixed, and tests are normally available in Singapore every second weekend. The listening, reading and writing modules are tested together on one day with the speaking module conducted on a separate day. Further information and a list of local centres is available on the IELTS website - www.ielts.org
More often than not, students are guided by agents in their countries on how to get through the English requirement. There are a number of private colleges that prepare students for the IELTS exams and they charge anything from $500 to $2000 for the preparatory course.
