I have been back and forth on this for the past few weeks now. I am currently, am giving my IELTS but I am kinda afraid I might not get a good band due to the lack of studying I did and the lack of time I had. That said, I have done a lot of digging on the fact if I need IELTS or not.
I already have my LOA without IELTS and in my country's checklist (Pakistan) there is no mention of IELTS at all (I checked the visa officer checklist for my country as well, and found nothing). Even after that I was not satisfied so I thought I check other countries' checklists, maybe they don't add it to the checklist but want it from people, you never know! So I did check India, Nigeria and Bangladesh requirements and all of their checklists had some sort of English assessment test required. In some, they even have in-depth detail of how many bands would be needed as well. So my question is, DO I KNOW IT?!
Also just pray I get a good band, my test is tomorrow! ;-; (Another question it says online that for Post-Degree Diplomas, they need a minimum of 6.0 band in individual tests and 6.5 overall, is that correct?)
