IELTS One Skill Retake is a new feature that allows you to improve your score in one specific area - Listening, Reading, Writing, or Speaking - without having to retake the entire test. This feature is only available for IELTS Academic and General Training on computer based test.

This option offers several benefits. First, it allows you to focus on enhancing one skill, which saves time and money compared to retaking all four sections. Additionally, the retake follows the same format and timing as the regular IELTS test, so you won't need to prepare for a different exam. You'll receive a new Test Report Form with your updated score for the retaken skill, alongside your original scores and an overall CEFR score. These results will be valid for two years from your original test date. Importantly, your other scores from the initial test will remain unchanged, and you have the option to use your original score if you prefer.

To book for IELTS One Skill Retake:

You must have recently completed a full IELTS on computer test.
You need to have received your results from a test center that offers this retake option.
You can only retake one skill per original test, and it must be done within 60 days of your initial test date.
