IELTS on Paper

About IELTS on Paper

IELTS on paper is the standard test format in Canada, with the other alternative being IELTS on computer. If you prefer writing down notes before you answer questions, or you are more comfortable with a pen than with a computer then you may be happy to hear that you can take your IELTS test on paper at a number of locations. If you choose paper-based IELTS, the Listening, Reading, and Writing sections will be completed on paper at your chosen test centre. The Speaking portion will be conducted face-to-face with a trained IELTS examiner.
