What is IELTS One Skill Retake?

IELTS One Skill Retake helps you to retake only one skill from Listening, Reading, Writing and Speaking. The scores that you will attain will be cumulated with the overall result and a revised scorecard will be issued. 

This scorecard will have the new score for the skill retaken and the original scores for the rest of the skills. Moreover, candidates can choose which score among the two they wish to send to their chosen university. 

There is one more important thing to note about the IELTS One Skill Retake, that is you can only take this within 60 days of your original test date. Moreover, these are only available on computer tests at certain chosen test centres.

Universities and immigration bodies across all major study abroad destinations are now accepting IELTS One Skill Retake. Furthermore, a lot of test centres supporting this format are also available in India where you can take this computer-based test.
