Pretty much the same, the only difference is it won't be on paper. Personally, I love working with computers, that's why I chose the computer based test.

How does computer-delivered IELTS work?
If you choose computer-delivered IELTS, you will take the Listening, Reading and Writing sections on a computer at one of our official test centres. The Speaking test will remain face to face with a trained IELTS examiner, as we believe it is the most effective way of assessing your speaking skills.

All other aspects of the test are exactly the same, whether it is taken on paper or on computer, including:

• Content
• Timings
• Question types
• Scoring
• Speaking test delivery
• Test Report Form
• Results Verification

In terms of questions, they will be the same. You will just be asked to transfer your answers to a paper answer sheet for paper-based tests. Results for the computer-based test also usually comes out before paper-based.
