You're correct toging, the minimum required passing score is 4.0

[Eyes O'Donnell]

Hi toging. like what terpe said you are correct and they haven't change the passing score is still 4. Lucky you toging you get 6.5
Blesslady 7 is only for the nurses who are applying for the student visa. You can check the schedule on website. Anyways, goodluck and toging thank you

Is that right? You have to wait 2 weeks after the test to get the result?

We had to wait 15 days after I think, earlier this year. However, that test is no longer on the approved list.

December 10 is IELTS schedule I think.. Just practice online.. There are lots of online exercises. You only need to get at least 4.0 in the four components. Not a problem at all.. Even high school graduates can obtain 4.0. Wish you luck... December 10 is the date.

PS. Answer all the tasks in speaking even in two sentences. Go straight to the point! Hit the examiner! 2 minutes might not be enough if you expound and explain all the details. Just HIT the EXAMINER! Break a leg!

Hello Bless, are you lodging application for a fiance or work visa? Spouse and fiances just need 4.0.. However, the greater the band score, the better for working opportunities in the UK...I took IELTS last Oct. 22.. And Got 7.5 band score...

[Blesslady]

to get a score of 7 and above in all.wow!congrats!happy for you
i wish and pray to pass the exam

Does anybody know what the TOEIC equivalent is in terms of band score. My wife took TOEIC and not IELTS and the banding is different.

For nursing what TOEIC level would she need?

I think you can download the document from UKBA, if your fiancee is getting to by fiancee visa, then she is only required to get a lower band score BUT she should aim for the band score which is required of a NURSE (so there would be better opportunities for work). Hit two birds at the same time.
http://www.ukba.homeoffice.gov.uk/si...lish-tests.pdf

the list did not specify which is for nurses though.. Otherwise, look at the equivalency table.. If IELTS requires 7.0 band score for nurses, compare IELTS and TOEIC scores on the site below...

Hi Thanks. My wife already has her Spouse Visa and is in the UK. I was wondering if her TOEIC scores were high enough for nursing work here. They were obviously high enough for the UKBA.
