Is there any difference between the marking scheme or score allotment of IDP and BC?

Hi,

I am in Coimbatore, south India.
I sat for both BC and IDP in 1 week gap.

BC : 8,7,6,6.5
IDP: 8,8,6.5,6.5

again at IDP: 8,8,7,6.5

in my experience , IDP is quite easy in assessment . and reading also they provide question easy to answer than BC.

But all IELTS centre claim that it is a global exam and same everywhere irrespective of place you taking the test.

I am pretty sure it depends on where you take the test.

anyway, check with other people before you proceed,

Goodluck

Thanks for sharing your experience, durai.

Sunshine, the manner in which the IELTS is administered and graded is standardized. It shouldn't make a difference where you sit your exam.
