How to prepare for the IELTS on computer test

We appreciate that today, many people prefer to take their test on a computer. That’s why we now offer the IELTS on computer test at many of our official test centres, giving you the option of typing your answers rather than writing them by hand.

If you select this option, you will take the Listening, Reading and Writing sections of the test on a computer. However, the Speaking test will still be face-to-face with a trained IELTS examiner as this is the most effective way to assess your speaking skills.

The following practice materials will help you familiarise yourself with the IELTS on computer test so you can decide if this approach is right for you.
