What happens if I don’t get the score I need?

The IELTS exam is a particularly challenging exam and sometimes requires more preparation time. Don’t worry – all Yeda Plus students are welcome to repeat the IELTS course free of charge for an entire year. We do not believe in guaranteeing a blind grade as the grade ultimately depends on the amount of investment and your seriousness – but we are ready and happy to provide you with all the necessary resources to achieve your best results.
I would like to apply to university this coming year. Can I start studying for the IELTS test a month before the deadline?

Anything is possible. But the important question is what exactly is your goal? We recommend preparing for the IELTS exam at least four months in advance, which will leave you time to work on your admissions applications or documents and take other necessary exams. Remembered too late? Call us today to schedule a consultation meeting.
I suffer from exam anxiety. Can you help?

Many of the students who come to us suffer from exam anxiety, and when forced to speak in a second language, this anxiety increases. We believe in the “Practice Makes Perfect” approach – with enough practice, exam anxiety can be significantly reduced. Our consultants will sit down with you and formulate stress reduction strategies you can use on the day of the exam.
When can I take the IELTS exam?

The IELTS is offered in Israel several times a month at our Centers. More information about the exam and registration for the exam can be found on the website of the British Council at: http://www.britishcouncil.org.il/en. For information on the Yeda Plus IELTS course, please leave details and we will get back to you soon.

IELTS Exam

The IELTS test is the international test for the English language test, which has been recognized as the global test for language test for over 20 years and is administered by the British Consulate and IDP Australia. You can take the exam in any of the 160 exam centers in 109 countries around the world. The purpose of the IELTS test is to assess the candidates’ knowledge and understanding of the English language in four main subjects of the language – listening comprehension, reading comprehension, writing, and speaking. The score on the exam is graded on a scale of 1-9 grades, with a score of 1 representing a complete lack of knowledge of the language, and a score of 9 representing knowledge of English at the level of a mother tongue. The requirement to take the IELTS test can be obtained from one of two channels: one is the academic channel, which is used for the purpose of accepting candidates for studies at universities and vocational institutions, and the other is a generic channel, which is used for immigration purposes.
The differences between the two versions are only in the reading and writing parts. The general version checks if the examinee will be able to be working a English-speaking environment workplace. Therefore, the nature of the questions and the texts in the reading and writing chapters are characterized in relation to the field of employment. The academic version of the IELTS test checks whether the examinee can integrate into an English-speaking academic environment. The reading and writing chapters in this version are characterized by connection to the academic field.

The different sections of the IELTS exam

1. The first part of the test is the listening part. This section includes four listening passages with questions about them. Each hearing segment lasts between 3 and 5 minutes. There are 10 questions in each listening section, in total there are 40 questions in this part of the test. The total time for this part is 30 minutes.
2. The second part of the test is the reading part. In the academic test, this part includes three reading sections, each of 700-1000 words. 13-14 questions for each reading section. In the general test, there are usually five sections, four shorter and one long (as in the academic test). In total, the reading part of the test includes 40 questions.
The total time for this part is 60 minutes.
3. The third part of the test is the writing part. The writing part of the IELTS test includes two writing tasks. In the academic test, the first task will be a written analysis of some process or information presented in the form of a graph or table. In the general test, the first task is to write a short letter according to the instructions (complaint letter, thank you letter, letter to a friend living abroad, and so on).
In both formats, the second writing task will be writing an opinion essay. The total time for each writing part is sixty minutes.
4. Another part of the IELTS test is the speaking part. This part is conducted in the form of an interview with an examiner. The conversation is between 10 to 15 minutes only.

Ever since I could remember my dream was to study abroad. At the age of 17, I arrived at YedaPlus for a consultation to hear about the admission process and what it takes. I have to admit that at first I wasn’t well aware of the elaborate admission process and its practical and mental difficulties. I was lucky to have the YedaPlus team by my side, willing to answer every question I had. Their moral support and expertise have led me to succeed. Finally, my dream came true I have been accepted to my first choice of university- the University of British Columbia, Northeastern University, and Drexel University. Thank you YedaPlus, I definitely couldn’t have done it without you!
