IELTS Prep BDWhere they differ
Academic Reading uses passages on academic subjects, while General Training uses everyday and workplace texts. In Writing Task 1, Academic describes a chart or diagram and General Training asks for a letter.
Who needs which
Academic is usually asked for higher education, and General Training for work, migration or some training. This is not a fixed rule; check the organisation’s website or contact them directly.
What IELTS Prep BD offers
You can choose your test type in the app. The current full mock tests are Academic; check the app for how much General Training content is available. Listening and Speaking practice helps both versions.
If you choose the wrong version
Sitting the wrong version may leave you with a result the organisation does not accept and a second test to book. Confirm before you register.
