Best Mock Test for IELTS Academic

Yes. Your first full-length IELTS Academic mock test is completely free, with no credit card required. You also get free unlimited practice for every IELTS Academic question type. Additional mock tests and advanced AI feedback are available with a subscription.

The full-length mock test takes about 2 hours and 45 minutes, matching the duration of the real IELTS Academic exam. We also have mini mock tests that give you an accurate predicted band for a single section (Listening, Reading, Writing, or Speaking) in much less time.

Arno's AI scoring is trained on the official IELTS band descriptors for Writing and Speaking, plus the standard scoring scales for Listening and Reading. Our predicted bands are designed to closely match what an IELTS examiner would give, so you can track your readiness with confidence before test day.

The mock test covers all four IELTS Academic sections. Listening (about 30 minutes): 4 recorded sections with multiple choice, matching, plan or map labelling, form or note completion, and short answers. Reading (60 minutes): 3 long passages with multiple choice, true false not given, matching headings, sentence completion, and summary completion. Writing (60 minutes): Task 1 (describe a graph, chart, or diagram) and Task 2 (academic essay). Speaking (about 11 to 14 minutes): Parts 1, 2, and 3 with cue cards.

IELTS Academic uses a 0 to 9 band scale. You get a band score for each of the four skills (Listening, Reading, Writing, Speaking) and an overall band, which is the average of the four. Half bands (like 6.5 or 7.5) are also used. Most universities require an overall band of 6.0 to 7.5 depending on the program.

Yes. Arno has practice prompts with instant AI band scoring and detailed feedback for IELTS Academic Writing Task 1, Writing Task 2, and Speaking Parts 1, 2, and 3. For Writing, you get feedback on Task Achievement or Response, Coherence and Cohesion, Lexical Resource, and Grammatical Range and Accuracy. For Speaking, you also get feedback on Fluency and Coherence, plus Pronunciation.

You receive a detailed score report with predicted bands for each of the four skills, an overall predicted band, detailed AI feedback on your Writing and Speaking responses, and a personalized study plan that targets your weakest skills.

The content, timing, and scoring scale are designed to match the real IELTS Academic exam as closely as possible. The main difference is that Speaking is done with an AI examiner instead of a face-to-face examiner. Your responses are still scored on the same four official descriptors used in the real test.

Yes. Arno's predicted bands are designed to closely match what you would receive on the real IELTS Academic exam, using AI scoring trained on the official band descriptors. The most reliable way to know your readiness is to take several mock tests and look at the average predicted band.
