According to a recent post by Waka Waka Doctor, an X influencer:

"The British Council just reviewed the IELTS test fee in Nigeria again. You can still register at the previous rate via ielts.ng.

This applies whether you're taking the General or Academic test."

This is an important update for anyone preparing to take the IELTS in the coming weeks. While the British Council has officially increased the test fee, there's still a short window to pay the previous rate of ₦266,000 when you register through MOD IELTS via IELTS.NG.

Whether you're taking the General or Academic test, this previous test fee still applies. To take advantage of this, visit ielts.ng.

What kind of thing is this?

Please post all threads in the right section, and don't derail threads by posting off topic.
Don't abuse, bully, deliberately insult/provoke, fight, or wish harm to Nairaland members OR THEIR TRIBES

So what's the new rate after the expiration of the short window?
You did not state it here!

All that money to prove you can speak English!
Woaw

They'll surely milk us. Dor English wey we sabi speak again...ah!

Giving is helping the giver more than the receiver. It is more blessed to give than to receive. That is why despite Africa getting the most aid it is still very poor. Ever wondered why wealthy nations never want to receive aid from poorer nations? Because they know it sets spiritual forces that will go against them because u can never be better than who is giving to you. Wealth is a mindset.

And English is our official language.

Nigeria dey somehow sha

And they paper based IELTS will be scrapped. Only computer based to be introduced.

Though I do not need the test, they should make test result valid forever just like that of French.

You guys should blame it on your bad economy. Our Naira keeps falling
Around 2022, I think it was 90+k
You know how much Naira-Dollar was then va now

Even though we know English because British colonised us…some people don’t pass because they don’t obey instructions

For example don’t give long answers when only short ones are required…or speaking too fast or too slow, believe it or not most Nigerians don’t even know how to use articles properly , or use synonyms and the rest properly…that’s why even though you know English in general….you have to study very well…you’ll be surprised that you may not know as much as you think.

Nigeria government should do something about this exorbitant fee of IELTS. Last two years when I wrote mine in Portharcourt, it was 94k. We were taught in English in the University and we can speak English too. Why all this amounts just to prove we can speak English.

They are taking advantage now…at least they should increase the validity to three years with this amount of money.

Hmm gone are those days. I wrote this ielts when it was 69k in 2019 and 75k in 2021.
I still wrote in 2023 and the fee was 89k.

The pass rate depends on the requirement of the organisation u are writing it for, even doctors and nurses don't have the same IELTS requirement.

This is what you get when you don't have a working country. These people know that Nigerians speak English every day, yet they ask Nigerians travelling to anglophone countries to present the certificate because they know we are too desperate to leave this hellhole and never come back.

..that is why Nigerians and government should make the economy and country better and good and government should provide better life and better standard of living for Nigerians and all this exorbitant IELTS fees and japa to foreign countries for greener pastures will reduce and stop gradually
