Thanks for your contributions

IELTS and TOEFL majorly. PTE (Pearson's) is also rapidly gaining recognition.

If you're stubborn, you could just get a letter of english proficiency from your university though. Not in all cases should one just spend money anyhow...

Ehen na. It depends on what you're using it for though. If it's an immigration exam, then you may need to write Ielts or toefl, but if it's for overseas uni admissions, it is usually permitted for one to substitute with a proficiency letter from your university.

Some schools are very specific though...

Can Proof of Proficiency in English Language Replace IELTS?
There are questions emigration hopefuls ask about their documents and the kind of visa they are looking to get—especially the academic admission seekers; questions ranging from: how, if possible, to extend the lifespan of their IELTS to make it be useful still after the normal two years it’s usually valid for? Is WES evaluation necessary for all admissions seekers in the Americas? Short answers to these questions are: yes, there are ways the lifespan of your IELTS can be extended to remain useful after two years; and no, WES evaluation is not a compulsion, only few schools in the Americas ask for WES evaluation. On another publication on this web, I will be writing comprehensively on the extension of the lifespan of IELTS, and on when you need or do not need WES evaluation. But on this one, I only intend to make some clarifications on the need for Proof of Proficiency in English Language (POPEL) and the need for IELTS, as well as when you need either of the two as a foreign admission seeker.
