What does this mean? There is no requirement for an "overall" score as far as I can tell.

Thanks friends, just wanted to confirm:

I heard people mentioned that all four ability score need to be 7 or above? or some of them said need to be 6.5 or above in each ability.

What am I missing?

Are my reading (score 6) and writing (6.5) also meeting the requirements for for PR CEC NOC skill type A Eligibility? Thanks.
 
The people who gave you that information (or perhaps you yourself) have probably confused the IELTS scores with the equivalent CELPIP scores (which are indeed 7 in each ability), or perhaps the equivalent CLB Level (which is 7).

In the case of IELTS, the minimum scores are 6.0 in each of the four abilities for NOC A.

Thanks very much! Appreciate your help!
