There are many reasons why individuals take the IELTS examination.

 

Education

Studying abroad is very appealing to many students. The experience of sitting in classrooms in prestigious universities and colleges abroad is academically satisfying. This is also an excellent way to travel and experience other countries’ culture through education and immersion. Though getting education from these universities and colleges is really advantageous, these educational institutions have set high standards in the IELTS score which students have to meet.

 

Employment

Working abroad sometimes has better earnings. Additionally, there is a huge chance for someone working abroad to bring his or her family to the country where he or she is working. Indeed, the chances of getting better career opportunities and improving one’s self professionally may be more easily achieved by working abroad.

 

Immigration

Immigrants need the IELTS score to show that they can use the English language in communicating with others. Aside from other visa requirements needed, an IELTS certification will be vital.

 

Personal English evaluation

Others take the IELTS exam because they want to know their English level. They simply want to know how well they can use the English language and whether there are areas for improvement.

 

Professional Bodies
Others take the IELTS exam for professional bodies overseas like nursing associations, medical councils, and pharmaceutical societies. These look great on anyone's curriculum vitae.
