Understanding GT IELTS

The GT listening test is the same as the academic test. Everyone takes the same listening test with the same scoring.
The GT speaking test is the same for everyone. There is one speaking test only with the same scoring.
Face-to-face interview.
Short questions and speaking at length about a familiar topic.
The GT reading test is slightly different. The question types are 100% the same as the academic test, but the passages have a different content and layout.
To understand GT writing (both task 1 and task 2), see all the tips and information listed below.

You are asked to write a letter on a given situation. The letter could be formal in tone and may be a request, complaint, explanation, or offering recommendations. Alternatively, you may be asked to write an informal letter to a friend, for example, asking them to visit and suggesting activities you can do together.

As mentioned above, Task 2 is the same for both Academic and General Training as it would be required to respond to a statement or premise in a formal essay. However, in the General Training Writing test, the essay topics are more general in nature.
