What an IELTS Speaking test looks like
Three parts, 11 to 14 minutes. Part 1 is short questions about you: home, work or study, hobbies. Part 2 is the cue card: one minute to prepare, then up to two minutes on your own. Part 3 is a discussion of bigger ideas linked to the Part 2 topic.
Part 1 rewards natural, extended answers (two or three sentences, not one word, not a speech). Part 2 rewards keeping going for the full two minutes. Part 3 is where Band 7 is won or lost: giving a reason, an example, and the other side of the argument.
The four things your band is made of
- Fluency and Coherence
- Speaking at length without long pauses, and ideas that follow on from each other.
- Lexical Resource
- Enough words to talk about any topic, and the ability to explain a word you don't know.
- Grammatical Range and Accuracy
- Different structures, used mostly correctly, including when you talk about the past and the future.
- Pronunciation
- How easy you are to understand: word stress, sentence stress and intonation, not your accent.
Each criterion is a quarter of the band.
How to get more out of each practice test
- Do the whole test in one go, out loud. Answering in your head is reading, not speaking.
- Time your Part 2. If you stop before 1 minute 40, you need a simple plan for the cue card, not more vocabulary.
- Listen back to one answer and count the fillers and restarts. That one habit drags fluency more than anything else.
- In Part 3, give every answer a reason and an example. It is the single move that separates Band 6 from Band 7.
Questions people ask
- Are these real IELTS Speaking tests?
- They follow the Speaking tests in the official Cambridge IELTS books 1 to 21: the same Part 1 topics, the same cue cards and the same Part 3 discussions.
- How many speaking corrections are free?
- A free Langujet account gets 10 AI Speaking corrections a day. A review by a real IELTS teacher is an optional upgrade.
- How does the AI mark speaking?
- Your answers are recorded and transcribed, then marked against the public IELTS band descriptors for each of the four criteria. Treat the band as a close estimate and the notes as your to-do list.
- Is Speaking the same for Academic and General Training?
- Yes. Both take the same Speaking test, so every test here works for both.
The tests come from the Cambridge IELTS books, published by Cambridge University Press & Assessment. No task wording is reproduced on this page. Langujet is not affiliated with Cambridge, IDP or the British Council.
