  1. Under no circumstances can the IELTS General be substituted for the Academic for seeking admission to the Canadian Universities. The reason is that both exams serve different objectives. While the IELTS General Training is usually attempted by candidates looking for immigration or employment the Academic IELTS is given by candidates looking for admission to Foreign universities in Australia, UK, Canada or New Zealand. Any prospective immigrant wishing to move to the above countries should appear for the General Training test and obtain a minimum score of 6 overall Band while the IELTS Academic is for aspirants who are keen to pursue higher education or seeking professional registration.
