Questions
Is IELTSAlert really free?
Yes. All practice tests, marking and band estimates are free, with no card needed. AI feedback is free within a daily limit, or unlimited with your own free Gemini key.
How accurate is the band score?
Listening and Reading are marked against answer keys and converted with the published band tables, so they are close to the real test. Writing and Speaking scores are estimates to guide your practice, not official results.
Do I need an account?
No. Start practising straight away. Create a free account when you want to keep your scores on every device and use AI feedback.
Academic or General Training?
Both. Reading has separate Academic and General Training tests, and Writing Task 1 covers both.
Is IELTSAlert an official IELTS website?
No. IELTSAlert is an independent practice platform and is not affiliated with the British Council, IDP or Cambridge University Press & Assessment.
