What are IELTS and SAT?

IELTS (the International English Language Testing System) is an English exam designed to help one work, study or migrate to a country where English is the native language. The exam mainly measures the ability of test-takers to communicate in the four basic English language skills – listening, reading, speaking, and writing.

SAT (Scholastic Aptitude Test) is a university and college entrance exam with 2 subjects; English and Mathematics that covers the contents from elementary school to secondary school.

Why are the IELTS and SAT exams required at the top universities in Thailand?

The common answer is that the university needs to be sure that all the students they recruit will not have communication issues while studying at the special campus or international campus, which is covered by English and mathematics courses. Therefore, an international English language proficiency test score such as IELTS or SAT is required for the application.

When do the IELTS and SAT exams start?

For the IELTS, people can take the exam all year round by applying on the British Council website and the IDP website. And on the SAT exam, it will be open for 5 rounds per year: March, May, August, October, and December (Update 2022), so people can create an account on the Collegeboard website for the application to the test.
