The IELTS exam is a popular way for people who want to study overseas, but don't speak English as their first language or where it's not spoken often. The four sections of this test evaluate you on reading comprehension skills in addition with writing abilities from various subject areas including literature analysis essays, works by authors like Shakespeare; plus listening ability which includes understanding voice recordings without any lapses that might occur when we talk too loudly through our phones.
