Top Universities in the UK, such as the University of Cambridge or the University of Oxford, require 7.0 or more in the IELTS examination. Entry and scholarships in these Universities are extremely competitive, and students need to be very careful with their application documents (such as IELTS letters of recommendation, statement of purpose, etc.) when it comes to applying to such Universities. Moreover, certain language courses might require even a higher IELTS score. In order to know about the IELTS scores required for UK Universities, students can visit our website.

Scoring 7.0 or above in the IELTS exam is not an impossible task. Students must start by understanding the pattern and syllabus of the exam. Once they have thoroughly understood them, they should start with the official Cambridge guide and the official IELTS website. Do not leave anything in the official books and resources. After completing the Official Cambridge Guide to IELTS, make sure to go through Cambridge IELTS books 1 to 16. If the students still feel that they need to work more, they can refer to this IELTS preparation resource.

Yes. If you score 7.0 or above in the IELTS examination, your score is considered a good score. Scoring 7.0 or above puts you in a safe zone where you clear cut-offs of most of the Universities that require an IELTS score as proof of English-language proficiency. Getting a high score also helps you score well in the Canada Express Entry Pool, thereby increasing your chances of getting a PR. Hence, your aim must be to score as high as possible in any exam. Even though scoring high does not guarantee you a position in the top Universities, it definitely improves your chances.
