The Test Report Form
IELTS provides a profile of English language ability in Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking.
A Band Score for each of the four modules as well as an overall score is recorded on the Test Report Form. This allows receiving institutions to clearly identify the candidates' strengths and weaknesses. These Band Scores are recorded on the Test Report Form along with details of the candidate's nationality, first language and date of birth. The Test Report Form indicates whether it is for an Academic or General Training candidate.
Marking at the test center ensures that test results are available without any administrative delay.
A valid Test Report Form bears a center stamp, a validation stamp and the IELTS administrator's signature. Test Report Forms should be sent directly from the test center to the receiving institution or organization. Photocopies should not be accepted.
