Is the IELTS exam available free of cost online if I need to retake it?
16 Jun 2026 · Answered by Bhuvaneswari Gobinathan · 1 min read
No, the IELTS exam is not available free online for retakes. Every IELTS attempt requires payment of the full exam fee. If you need to improve your score in just one section, IELTS offers a "One Skill Retake" option for tests taken on computer at select centers, with a separate fee. This option is not available for IELTS on paper or IELTS Online tests. For more details on retake options or booking, please connect with your LeapScholar counsellor.
