Test preparation

Train, sit a mock, then practise the interview.

Modules, a scored practice paper from your own details, an AI language session, and an AI interview. A counsellor still confirms the score a university will accept.

    The test most UK, Canada, Australia, and Ireland files still ask for.

    6.0–7.0 for taught degrees

    Accepted widely in Australia, New Zealand, and a growing set of UK universities.
