What makes Academic different
Inside the IELTS™ Academic Test
IELTS Academic is the version universities and professional bodies ask for. Listening and Speaking are the same as in General Training. Reading and Writing are not, and that is where Academic candidates most often lose marks.
Writing Task 1: graphs, charts and diagrams
You are shown visual information, such as a line graph, bar chart, pie chart, table, map or process diagram, and must describe it in your own words in at least 150 words, in about 20 minutes. You do not give an opinion. The skill is selecting the main trends, comparing the key figures and writing a clear overview. Most students have never practised this before they start preparing, which makes it the task where focused practice pays off fastest.
Writing Task 2: the academic essay
You respond to a point of view, argument or problem in at least 250 words, in about 40 minutes. Task 2 counts for twice as much as Task 1 in your Writing band, so time management matters: spending too long on the graph is one of the most common ways to lose marks on the essay.
Academic Reading: three long texts
You answer 40 questions in 60 minutes on three long passages taken from books, journals, magazines and newspapers. The texts are written for a general audience but are dense and academic in style. Question types include matching headings, True/False/Not Given, sentence completion and summary completion, and there is no extra time to transfer answers.
Listening and Speaking
Listening has four parts and 40 questions in about 30 minutes, moving from everyday conversations to an academic talk. Speaking is a three-part interview with an examiner lasting 11 to 14 minutes. Both are the same for Academic and General Training candidates.
On Gabble you practise each of these with Academic material: Task 1 prompts built around visuals, Task 2 essay questions, Academic Reading passages and full timed Academic mock tests. Writing and Speaking responses are scored by AI against the four IELTS criteria, with feedback on what to change.

“My writing was holding me back. Gabble's Task 2 feedback was incredibly specific. It told me which sentences were unclear and why, not just a vague score. Went from 6.0 to 7.5 in Writing in five weeks.
Sara P.

“I needed 7.0 for my nursing registration. I'd failed twice. Gabble helped me understand exactly where I was losing marks in Listening and Reading. Third attempt - 7.0 overall. I still can't believe it.
Fatima O.
Nigeria 🇳🇬
“My target was 7.5 for a master's program in the UK. I ended up with 8.0. The AI's grammar and coherence notes on my Writing were more useful than anything my tutor said. Highly recommend.
Yuki T.
Japan 🇯🇵
“The Speaking section feedback completely changed how I approached Part 2 and 3. The AI flagged my habit of trailing off mid-sentence, something I'd never noticed. Band went from 5.5 to 7.0 in Speaking.
David K.
Kenya 🇰🇪
“I was aiming for 7.0 but landed 7.5. The Task 1 Academic writing practice made the biggest difference. I'd never practised graph descriptions properly before. The AI feedback showed me exactly what examiners look for.
Anjali S.
India 🇮🇳
“I started from a 5.0 and needed 6.5 for a UK visa. The Reading and Listening drills were excellent, way closer to the real exam than other platforms I tried. Passed in three months of consistent practice.
