We understand the frustration of not achieving your desired IELTS band score for work, study or migration. The good news that if you feel that your performance on test day is not reflected in the score you received, you can request a review (also called an IELTS re-mark or IELTS Enquiry on Result) within six weeks of sitting your test.
You may choose to have one or more test modules re-marked and the fee is $215.
We know how important this is to you, and we aim to get the remark to you as quickly as we can. Remarks may be completed within less than an hour or up to 21 days.
If your result is changed to a higher band score you will:
receive a full refund
be issued with a new Test Report Form
Applying for an IELTS re-mark or Enquiry on Results depends on your test delivery format (on paper or on computer) and the test centre where you took you test.
If you have taken your IELTS on computer test, you can login your IELTS profile. Click on "Past tests" to view the previous IELTS tests you have taken. If your test is within the timeframe eligible for a re-mark, you can simply click the "Re-mark" option and follow the next steps to apply for an Enquiry on Results.
If you have taken an IELTS on paper test, your process will vary depending on your test centre:
For test takers who have taken their IELTS on paper test at an IDP centre, please email ielts.auckland@idp.com .
