IELTS Band Scores: How they are calculated
ieltsliz.com › ielts-band-scoresIf your overall score is an average of 6.25, your score will be increased to 6.5. The score 6.25 is actually precisely between band 6 and 6.5, so in this case IELTS will push it up to the nearest score which is 6.5. If your overall score is an average of 6.75, your score will be increased to 7. This score again is precisely between 6.5 and band 7.
