Why prefer CD-IELTS over IELTS?

1)If a student has bad handwriting, then they might not be able to score good bands in IELTS as a teacher will not be able to evaluate properly but in CD-IELTS, writing needs to be typed and hence handwriting does not matter.

2) IELTS exam has to be booked a minimum of 15 days prior and has limited examination dates in a month while CD-IELTS needs to be booked a maximum of one week prior and the exam is conducted almost regularly.

3) Another preference is result outcome as in IELTS, the result is declared after 13 days while cd IELTS result is declared after 3-5 working days.
