International English Language Testing System (IELTS)

  • IELTS assesses student’s abilities in English listening, reading, writing, and speaking
  • Results are reported as band scores on a scale from 1 (lowest) to 9 (highest)
  • The overall band score is the average of the four component scores, rounded to the nearest whole or half band. The component scores are weighted equally
  • A score of 7 = a good user skill level. The test taker has operational command of the language, though with occasional inaccuracies, inappropriate usage and misunderstandings in some situations. They generally handle complex language well and understand detailed reasoning

Medical Academic Communication (MAC)

  • One (1) hour language/communication support per week
