Test Information
How often is the IELTS test conducted?
IELTS tests are conducted at least twice or three times a month
in Manila and less frequently in other venues according to
demand.
How is the test conducted?
The test is conducted in two parts:
- Part (a) Written Test (Listening, Reading and Writing)
- Part (b) Speaking Test
The listening, reading and writing (written parts) are held
consecutively on the same day. The written parts take about three
(3) hours to complete.
The speaking test only takes about 15 minutes but it is an
individual test so a test schedule giving an approximate time for
the test is prepared to ensure you are at the speaking test venue
on time. Speaking Tests may be scheduled any time from three
days before to three days after the written parts. The venue
for the speaking test may vary from the venue for the written parts
of the test but candidates are advised of the correct venue.
When is the next test available?
Check the schedule at the bottom of this web page for the next
available test date for your city OR telephone (02) 816 0755 and
follow the prompts to listen to the recorded information on test
venues and dates.
The 2008 Testing schedule is below.
Where are the test venues?
Tests are conducted regularly in Manila and Cebu and Baguio and
irregularly in Davao, Bacolod, Iloilo, Legaspi, Naga, Cagayan de
Oro, Iligan and Zamboanga depending on demand. Currently, tests are
held in large hotels or in institutions with large testing
areas.
The venue for the test is advised to you at the time of
registering (if it is known) and also confirmed by telephone or
mail about one week before the test date.
A schedule and venue for the speaking test is given at the time
of the written test (unless the speaking test is conducted prior to
the written parts in which case the time and venue will be
confirmed about one week before the speaking test)
What should I bring to the test ?
For the written & speaking parts of the test, bring only the
valid photo ID you used when registering for the test and 3 pieces
of Mongol # 2 pencils.
Pens and erasers will be provided on the day of the
test.
What NOT to bring to the test !!!!
Do not bring cell phones, handbags, any form of electronic
equipment including any type of recording device, scanning device
or photographic apparatus of any kind to the test. These items are
banned from the test venue.
The only item allowed in the test venue is the candidates' valid
ID. Hand bags, cell phones etc brought to the test venue will not
be permitted inside the testing room. IDP takes no responsibility
for the safety of any items that are brought to the test venue and
