IELTS Overall Band Score Calculator
Applicants obtain band scores between 1 and 9 on each of the four sections – listening, reading, writing, and speaking. The overall band score is determined by averaging these four scores, rounded to the nearest whole or half band.
For example: Assuming a candidate got 6.5, 6.5, 5.0, and 8.0 in listening, reading, writing, and speaking, respectively, the average score would be as follows.
6.5 + 6.5 + 5.0 + 8.0 / 4.
= 26 / 4.
= 6.5.
Thus the overall score would be 6.5. However, sometimes, the average may not come up to 0.5. In such cases, the round-off is the nearest decimal. For example, suppose a candidate got 6.5, 6.5, 5.0, and 7.0, respectively, then the average will be 6.25, rounded off to 6.5. In another case of 6.75, the overall score would be 7.0.
IELTS Academic Band Calculator
IELTS General Band Calculator
The IELTS general band score can be calculated like the IELTS academic band score. The entire process depends on the estimated scores you input between 1 and 9 for each section, i.e., listening, reading, writing, and speaking.
For example: For the scores of 6.5, 6.5, 5.5, and 6, the average is 6.125, which is closer to 6.0 than 6.5, so our final general band score for IELTS is 6.0.
