Like all other English language proficiency tests, IELTS too has 4 different sections – assessing the test-taker’s ability to Read, Listen, Write and Speak in standard English language. Each of these 4 sections is graded on a scale of 1 (non-user) to 9 (expert user) and the overall IELTS band score is average of the sectional scores.
