Over 1.4 million candidates across the globe sit the International English Language Testing System (IELTS) every year. The most common way for universities to prove foreign students' language proficiency is with this test. In addition to immigration purposes, IELTS is also increasingly sought by countries with non-English native speakers. Australia, New Zealand, and Canada all request IELTS scores from applicants with non-English first languages. Four separate tests test candidates' abilities in Reading, Writing, Listening, and Speaking. Most courses, jobs, and countries require students to achieve a good mark in all four skills to be accepted. In order to get the score they need, candidates often retake the exam several times.
