You can apply for a review of your band scores (called an Enquiry on Results) at your test centre within 6 weeks of the test date.

The request for a remark must be made within 6 weeks of the date shown on your Test Report Form (TRF). You can request a remark on the whole test or any part of it (Listening, Reading, Writing or Speaking).

There are a total of 4 modules. Each module has the following number of questions:
Your goal will be dependent on your current level of proficiency in the English Language and your minimum score requirement. However, we would recommend aiming for at least a 7-7.5 in each module to be eligible for more colleges, workplaces and countries.
It depends on what reason you are applying. Usually every university or immigration office prescribes a minimum overall band score and minimum individual score in each module to be eligible. It is best to check on the university/migration website to know what score you require.
We at CATKing offer personalised progress charts when you sign up for our IELTS coaching course. You can use these charts to identify your areas for improvement and work on them.
The first step to start studying for IELTS is understanding the exam format and questions. Next, you should practise as much as possible before your exam date. Join us at CATKing to make this experience easy and fun.
Practice is the key to getting a good score in your IELTS exam. We recommend understanding the exam format properly once and then giving a mock exam to understand where you are. Once you do that, keep practising till you reach your goal in at least 2-3 mock exams.
Usually intermittent users of English require more time to practise than expert users.
In case you are late for the exam due to situations beyond your control, contact your exam centre and provide an explanation immediately. If your reason seems reasonable, your exam will be rescheduled on the next available test date.
In case of a serious medical condition, you must provide a medical certificate within 5 days of your test date to receive a refund excluding the administrative costs.

If the test date is between 15-34 days, cancellation will be done once the request is approved. After cancellation is done/approved, refund will be processed within 8-10 business days after deducting administrative charges.
You can reschedule your exam date up to 15 days before the exam with a valid reason.
For 34 days and above you can reschedule without providing any reason.

If you are applying for a UK visa, you need to take an IELTS test approved for UK Visa and Immigration (UKVI) purposes known as IELTS for UKVI. This applies to everyone coming from a non-English speaking country.
While there is no change in the content, format or level of difficulty and scoring, IELTS for UKVI simply follows certain extra security protocols to ensure the authenticity of the test taker. Also, your Test Report Form (TRF) may look slightly different from the one given for IELTS Academic or General Training.
You will need to consider three aspects.
a) Your location: Computers based test are available only in major cities of India
b) Your comfort: Ask yourself-
c) Your urgency to get the score: If you have a fast approaching deadline for an application and need your test scores sooner, you should apply for the computer based test.
