The world’s most trusted English test is now faster
Most IELTS on computer results are now available typically within one day
People in Australia and New Zealand who take their International English Language Testing System (IELTS) test on a computer can now receive their results in as little as one day.
The faster results aim to support IELTS test takers who face tight deadlines as part of their global study, work or migration applications.
Michael James, IELTS Regional Director for Australasia at IDP, said the quicker results turnaround time demonstrates IELTS’ commitment to helping test takers achieve their big global goals.
“We know an IELTS result is important to our test takers, who are chasing a place at a university, a visa, a new job, or a new life abroad."
“That’s why we are working quicker to check answers, undergo integrity processes, and give test takers the right score that opens up opportunities,” he said.
While faster results will help test takers, it will not come at the cost of quality.
“Even though we have innovated our processes to release results faster, our focus is still on assessing human conversation with real people, real experts and real support.
“Our highly trained experts conduct the assessments in person, ensuring accurate and fair evaluation of your English language skills."
“With over 12,500 trusted endorsements from universities, governments, and employers, an IELTS result sets our test takers apart from the rest,” Michael James said.
