I am left only with IELTS and im gonna do it but the fear is that gillard may stop all application so i dont know whether I should study and plan for the exam or give up and see what happens for my SA SS.:wideeyed: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yeong family Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I have submitted my application on May 2009 which i have submitted 2 IELTS result cos my result for the 1st test was R7.5 W6.5 L7.5 S7.5 and the 2nd test was R7.5 W8.0 L7.5 S7.5. I am going for another round of test hoping to get all above 7. Not sure if this would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pumpkin Posted July 23, 2010 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Hi everyone. Sorry but what is NAATI accreditation please? Thanks It costs $1,000 at least and is very difficult to obtain. I would be tempted to say 7 in IELTS would be a better option. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
