Hello,
I got 7.5 in IELTS, my score is 338. Is it true that you get extra 50 points if you get band 8 or above in all 4 sections of ILETS? If yes, I want to retake the test to improve my ranking. Also, can you just update the test score on the same application?

You can use the CRS tool to calculate that

check your score again. and yes you can modify same application.

also it is based on clb level. so check crs calculator what changes you will get if you improve your score.
