IELTS One Skill Retake vs full IELTS retake vs Enquiry on Results
Not sure which option is right for you? The best choice depends on your existing IELTS scores and the requirements of the organisation you're applying to.

|---|---|---|---|
Purpose | Improve one skill | Retake all four skills | Request a remark of existing answers |
Skills involved | One | Four | One or more, depending on request |
New test required | Yes | Yes | No |
Best suited for | One skill below target | Multiple skills below target | Concern about original marking |
New score | Based on retake performance | Based on new full test | May change following remark |
Choose One Skill Retake if you only need to improve one section and your receiving organisation accepts OSR.
Consider a full IELTS retake if you need to improve multiple sections or your intended organisation does not accept OSR.
Consider Enquiry on Results if you believe your original performance may not have been accurately assessed and would prefer a remark rather than taking another test.
