Understanding your IELTS score

The test gives you a score for each section (Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking) – the average of these gives you your overall band score. 

How long your IELTS score is valid for

Your IELTS score will usually be valid for two years, but you should check the rules of the organization you’re applying to. We can send your Test Report Form directly to an organization you’re applying to. When you register for your test, you can nominate up to five organizations to be sent your IELTS Test Report Form directly. If you would like us to do this, please add these addresses on the Test Taker Portal within two years of taking your test.

Want your test to be re-marked?

If you believe your test has been scored incorrectly, you can apply for it be marked again. There’s a charge for doing this, but it’s refunded if your score is increased for any section of the test.

Scores are valid for 2 years. Paper based IELTS test results are available 13 days after the test date. Computer delivered IELTS test results are available 3 - 5 days after the test date.
