For students who are going to take the language test, they must think about which is more recognized in IELTS or TOEFL. So, for this question, I have collected some materials for you. Let's have a look at them together.
Which is more recognized, IELTS or TOEFL
To sum up, TOEFL scores are more recognized than IELTS. TOEFL is mainly the study abroad test for European and American universities, and IELTS is recognized by the Commonwealth countries. Let's look at the characteristics of the two.
TOEFL is the most widely recognized English proficiency test in the world. It is recognized by about 7300 universities and other institutions in 130 countries, including almost all top universities in the UK and Australia.
IELTS is designed and developed by Cambridge University Examination Committee, which has 95 years of long history and rich experience in English assessment. It is the first to conduct a comprehensive assessment of English ability from four aspects: listening, speaking, reading and writing.
In a word, TOEFL is more recognized, but the recognition of IELTS is increasing year by year, which is recognized by more and more universities. Candidates can choose to apply for TOEFL or IELTS according to their ideal universities.
Which level is higher, IELTS or TOEFL
Both IELTS and TOEFL are composed of four parts: listening, speaking, reading and writing. They are mainly language tests for people who go abroad to study, migrate or work. These tests focus on English proficiency tests.
The English level test is an English test set up for college students in China, such as TEM4/TEM4/TEM4/TEM4/TEM4/TEM4/TEM4/TEM4/TEM4/TEM4/TEM4/TEM4/TEM4/TEM4/TEM4/TEM4/TEM4/TE.
What is the equivalent level of IELTS TOEFL to English? In fact, there is no comparability between the two, but they are very different from each other in terms of exam content. Moreover, the IELTS score is 0-9, and the TOEFL score is 0-120. The English proficiency of different scores is also different.
No matter what else, taking IELTS 6.5 and TOEFL 80 as examples, they can't be said to be equivalent to CET-4 or CET-6, because as we said just now, their focus is different. To take a simple example, those who have scored 600 points in CET-6 are not necessarily better than those who have scored 6.5 in IELTS. Because we all know that CET-4 and CET-6 do not require oral English test.
The most essential difference between TOEFL and IELTS
TOEFL is an English proficiency test held by the American Educational Testing Service. It is currently the most widely used examination, and it is one of the necessary scores for us to apply for undergraduate, master's and doctor's degrees in English speaking countries.
The full name of IELTS International English Language Test System is jointly managed by the Foreign Language Test Department of Cambridge University Examination Committee, the British Cultural Association and IDP Education Group. It is an English proficiency test for people who plan to study, work or settle in English speaking countries.
The forms of IELTS and TOEFL are different: IELTS oral test adopts the form of "everyone talking", so that candidates can have real interaction with the examiner, which is more humanized; TOEFL oral test adopts the form of "human-computer dialogue" and the model of simulated class presentation to test students. There is no real examiner.
