Your questions
What do I get if the guarantee applies?+
A full refund of your subscription, plus we pay for your next IELTS, up to $250.
Does the guarantee work section by section?+
No, we only look at your Overall Band Score. The platform will help you on Speaking or any weak section, but the guarantee is based on your overall result.
Can I count practice tests I did on other websites?+
No. We need to see your progress on Band Exam, so only tests taken on the platform count.
Why only up to 6.5?+
Above 7, every half band takes a lot more time and fine-tuning. We'd rather make a promise we can keep: the guarantee is built for students who need a big jump.
