#Similarities_between_IELTs_and_OET
🔘There are a number of similarities between the two tests:
✔️Each one consists of four sub-tests, one for each skill: reading, listening, writing and speaking.
✔️A test takes place on one day.
There is no pass/fail, but a graded score – different institutions need test takers to achieve different scores, such as a 7 in IELTS or a B in OET.
✔️In the UK, for example, the GMC requires doctors to score B in OET with B in each paper, or IELTS 7.5 with a minimum 7.0 in each paper.
✔️The NMC requires nurses to score B in OET with B in each paper, or IELTS 7.0 with a minimum 7.0 in Reading, Listening and Speaking and 6.5 in Writing.
In practice, the required scores in the two tests for professions such as nurses are for similar levels of language skill when measured on the Common European Framework of Reference, specifically a C1 or advanced level.
✔️Both tests were developed in the late 1980s and are part-owned by Cambridge Assessment English.
✔️IELTS ownership is shared with ID P and the British Council. OET ownership is shared with Boxhill Assessment.
✔️However, that’s where the similarities end. As you will see, they are quite different tests in many ways.
