What is the difference between IELTS life skills and other types?

First, different levels of security monitoring:

The British Visa and Immigration Service will join the supervision of the examination security level. In order to meet the requirements of the British Visa and Immigration Bureau for security monitoring, the test center that holds IELTS for UKVI will have higher security monitoring technology and level.

Second, the test sites are different.

As the examination space in UKVI is very tight, students should register for the IELTS test for visa and IELTS test for life skills in Chinese mainland 12 as soon as possible.

12 examination rooms are located in Beijing (Beijing Foreign Studies University), Wuhan (Hubei Wuchang Experimental Middle School), Jinan (Hongjialou Campus of Shandong University), Shenyang (Liaoning University), Shanghai (Shanghai University of Finance and Economics), Hangzhou (Zhejiang Education Examination Service Center), Nanjing (Southeast University), Guangzhou (Guangdong University of Foreign Studies) and Shenzhen (SEG).

Third, the examination fee is different.

1, the registration fee for IELTS test (IELTS A/G class) is 2020 yuan;

2. UK visa immigrant UKVI IELTS, the registration fee is 2070 yuan;

3. IELTS Life Skills Test (Life Skills IELTS A 1/B 1).

420 yuan and 1400 yuan for review and reconsideration. The reconsideration time is still six weeks, and the results will be frozen during the reconsideration period.

Specifically, the first IELTS (IELTS A/G) is called traditional IELTS, which is familiar to China students (including A- academics and G- immigrants).

The difference of ordinary IELTS is that it cannot be used to apply for language courses, preparatory courses and immigrant visas, and can only be used for direct reading. IELTS can be used to apply for any student visa (preparatory courses and language courses) or immigrant visa. IELTS is easier than ordinary exams.
