IELTS vs TOEFL

While both evaluate your English language skills based on four parameters of Listening, Reading, Writing and speaking, on-going debate of which test to take has become a moot point among st the aspirants.

IELTS is jointly conducted by the University of Cambridge ESOL Examinations, British council and IDP Education Australia focuses and on Queen’s English, TOEFL is administered by ETS (English testing service) and conducts test with a special focus on US English. Students who have a good command over UK English choose to take IELTS whereas TOEFL is preferred by students who are more comfortable with US accent.

Test to select between the two should be largely dependent on the country you are going to for your higher studies. If you are going to the US or Canada for your higher education ,TOEFL emerges as your first choice whereas if you are headed for UK or Australia you might want to consider taking IELTS.
