The Test Format

There are four sub-tests, or modules, to the IELTS test:   Reading, Writing, Listening and Speaking.
Students must sit all four sub-tests. While all students take the same Listening and Speaking tests, they sit different Reading and Writing tests, depending on whether they have selected the Academic Module or the General Training Module.
.On the day of the test, the four subsections will be taken in the order  given in picture.,

Total Time:

2 hours 45 minutes
The Speaking test may even take place a day or two later at some centres.

IELTS Listening test lasts for about 30 minutes. It consists of four sections, played on cassette tape, in order of increasing difficulty. Each section might be a dialogue or a monologue.
The test is played once only, and the questions for each section must be answered while listening, although time is given for students to check their answers.

IELTS Reading test lasts for 60 minutes. Students are given an Academic Reading test, or a General Training Reading test. Both tests consist of three sections, and in both tests the sections are in order of increasing difficulty.

IELTS Writing test also lasts for 60 minutes. Again, students take either an Academic Module, or a General Training Module.
Students must perform two writing tasks, which require different styles of writing.
There is no choice of question topics.

IELTS Speaking test consists of a one-to-one interview with a specially trained examiner. The interview is recorded and has three separate parts:
An introduction and interview, an individual long turn where the candidate speaks for one or two minutes on a particular topic, and a two-way discussion thematically linked to the individual long turn. This interview will last for approximately 11-14 minutes.

For the fluency of English language we have to be aware of certain things..... Everybody say that "I am not having a good vocabulary so I 'll not speak or I couldn't speak in English well. Actually it is not the problem. I didn't mean that it is not necessary but not only that.
Just think when you where two years old, you might have a vocabulary of maximum 50 words. But the children in that age will talk a lot.
" WHERE THERE IS A  WILL ,
       THERE IS A WAY "
There are some parts of English you may avoid or not used well . They are collectively known as AQVASIGPAC
.  It's an abbreviation. It describes,

A         ------ Adjective
Q          ------ Question pattern

Difference between Cambridge advanced English and IELTS

Once you've decided to study or work abroad, you will be required to present certain documentation before a university or employer can accept you.
Among other necessary paperwork, applicants who are not native English speakers have to present proof of their English language proficiency.

Now the time we have to select one internationally accepting exam to prove our proficiency.

  But is one easier than another?

Let's take a look at two common British examinations

:  * IELTS      and      
  * Cambridge English: Advanced                (CAE).

IELTS (International English Language Testing System) assesses four of your English skills — reading, writing, listening and speaking. It is the most popular academic English exam. Every year, nearly 2 million people take it.

CAE is an international English language examination developed by Cambridge English Language Assessment. It also concludes 4 sections: reading and use of English, writing, listening, speaking.

For both exams, assessing the speaking section is done with a teacher, while the rest individually (on computer or paper) and checked later.

Even though these two tests might show some similarities  ,there are some difference..so that we should make a selection carefully.

1) The period of validity

IELTS - 2 years
CAE - unlimited period

Therefore, if you planning to use your results later than 2 years or simply do not wish to retake the exam, CAE might prove a better match.

2) Exam duration

IELTS lasts almost 3 hours
CAE - about 5 hours
If you are going to take the CAE, you should be prepared for a longer period of concentration, while IELTS provides a shorter, more intense exam experience.

3) Results
It is impossible to fail IELTS - you simply get a certificate with your result, from 4.0 to 8.9.
The CAE certificate is issued only if you scored 60% or more.

It is crucial to choose the exam that matches your needs and personal preferences. However, if the level of your English is high and you are willing to put an effort in your preparation for the test, in the end you will succeed not matter which one you pick.
