What is IELTS Online and how does it work?

IELTS Online is the same test, same questions, and same format as the IELTS Academic test taken in a test centre. The difference is that now you can take it from anywhere. All you need is a computer with a webcam, a stable internet connection, and a well-lit private space, and you're good to go!
