Will I get a high score in taking the IELTS exam abroad?

The other answer is not quite right. It is true that IELTS scores are higher when you take the IELTS test abroad than at home, but not for those reasons.

First of all, there are many, very many, very many candidates taking the IELTS test in China. There are many, and Chinese students are generally very capable. For example, if a speaking examiner has stayed in China for a long time, it will be easy to distinguish Chinese English, so the score will be very low. However, in foreign countries (especially the United Kingdom), examiners are used to hearing the accents of various countries. Just imagine, if you have a lot of apples, and then suddenly there is an orange, can you tell the difference? So you have about 10 kinds of fruits, and then there is an orange in it. Can you tell it apart? That's it. There was an oral examiner in an examination room in Shanghai who was known as the "five-point old lady". She gave low marks for this reason.

In addition, if you think about it, the Chinese people themselves are very diligent. If it were so easy to get high scores in the exam, wouldn’t foreign countries be in trouble? Taking the IELTS test is either to immigrate or go to school. Think about it from another perspective, would we be happy if a large number of foreigners came to China to use our own educational and medical resources (medical treatment in the UK is free). .

That’s why scoring points is so serious in China.

It is recommended to take the exam in the UK, as the individual and total scores will be higher
