How is the exchang rate affecting IELTS

Well, I hope when the exchange rate goes down, all these arbitrary price increase will also come down

Why is Tinubu wicked like this, look at what he has put us into, people can no longer build houses, people can no longer feed,

Please Shut up.

His Excellency Ahmed Tinubu (HEAT)

I guess Tinubu is also the reason why the prices of food and everything have gone up in the UK and the US.
Tinubu is also the reason for your past 20-year miserable low life. Yeah

It Is Well.

Why can't they turn everything to computer base test to eliminate logistics cost? They are just milking Nigerians dry.

I will agree to your argument but is it not same tinubu that has accepted responsibility in the economic woes if the nation?

RichDad1:

Or that the certificate expires and you have pay to undergo another test.

Or you pass the test, get to the embassy only to be denied visa for no reason. I don't blame them but the human animals we have as leaders.

This Is Too Much Na.

Only Almighty God Will Surly See US Through.

It is really your votes that will see you through.

As at 2020 it was 50k. 2024 it’s times 6

OK..

✌️

You people shouting it is too much. You voted your emilokan, price of everything doubled, tripled in some cases. Who do you think will pay for increase in the price of fuel, rent, salary of staff, utility and other cost of conducting the exam that the exam organizing body will have to deal with.

qanda:
This is really tough. One will wonder why Nigerians should write a test of English exam in the first instance.

Can't the Nigerian government make a case...in the end, to Japa is by choice.

After paying such an amount, e no go good to fail the test o.

Individuals preparing to sit for the exam should prepare well biko.

As at 2020 dollar was 350 now its dancing around 1600. Meanwhile IELTS was much more than 50k in 2020, so if it's times 3 today, that is even generous of the body conducting the exam. Nigerians should understand that votes have consequences. Na urself u dey do. Vote right and also endeavor to take it upon yourself to convince one dullard to also vote right

Please Shut up.

You kid ,shut up ,

May your life be as miserable and worthless as 8 years of Obi the Agulu packaged fraud Governorship of Anambra State. Big 🙏

Are people still writing this exam?

So demeaning to a country that has English-taught courses throughout its lifetime.

What percentage of English people can pass this exam themselves?

But they realise how appealing their countries have become to Africans, so they get away with everything, knowing that our Government can not make a diplomatic case on behalf of her citizens.

This is simply a way for western nations to make more money out of Africans, majorly.

Seriously, nothing can cause me to take this exam, nothing. This is exploitation.

SKYHIGHfx:
We are still a slave to the west, we need to stop all this tribal bashing and come together to build a formidable nation, yes we can

Dey play. U don't seem.to understand that those who are supposed to be at the helm of such coming together are themselves ensconced in the worst expression of tribalism. Didn't the last election teach u anything? I doubt because a typical Nigerian doesn't learn.

This has nothing to do with Tinubu. The exploitation has been before Tinubu.

IELTS should be scrapped for Nigerians.

Nigerians love slavery. Imagine paying that amount to be cleaning white yansh.

When I say Nugeria has no government, some might think I'm too pessimistic.

Wasn't it this same exam, routinely conducted at the National Arts theater, surulere back in the day that I paid N25,000 to take?

That's like 2008.

Why are they charging this crazy fee and the Nigerian govt acts like it can't do anything about it?

Sad.

Sayvick:
Excuse me sir.

Is the test for employment?

Both for employment and study purposes abroad.

It's still very cheap in Nigeria. It's about $443 in Australia ie about N449,645. It's well with Nigeria. We're truly passing through a hard time.

Political leaders have no mercy for the masses.

Dalohad:
British scammers.

Ensure you get a letter of English proficiency from your School Faculty or Department after you graduate and use it in your school or migration applications. Where that is not applicable, write PTE, TOEFL or Duolingo. They are cheaper. I want to see this criminal IELTS scammers lose money.

Nigeria is a Commonwealth country. English has remained the official language of ways and means of interaction and business for 100 years. We should not be writing these exams which are purely meant to swindle hapless and desperate Nigerians seeking greener pastures.

I wrote it once in 2016 and got a band 8 in almost all criteria and never used it. It has since expired while I have gone on to acquire a Master's degree. It cost me only N10,000 to get a letter of English proficiency from my Department. I will NEVER pay for IELTS again. I will be facing my US applications. The UK and Canada are not on my list.

who ever collected #10,000 to write a letter of English proficiency in your college dept. is also a scammer.

We are no different than the people whe accuse.

KaptainAfrika:
Kuku do PTE or CELPIP though this one is only in Lagos.

What's the cost of CELPIP presently?

Ok. Wait until they make it N50,000. Or better still, go write IELTS with your 280k. Some faculties are giving it out for free, but I do not think it will be for long.

Go to the University Senate and tell them to make it free in all faculties and department. That's the right way to start.

SalamRushdie:
It high time the govt step into this IELTs exploitation..why will you be paying so much to prove to someone you speak English when Nigeria is a known Anglophone country

It's purely a money making scheme by these countries, after all people going to Germany, Russia, etc, they don't get asked to take exams to prove they can speak Russian, or German.
