IELTS Academic is the version required for university admission and for professional registration in most fields. It differs from General Training in Reading and Writing: the passages are drawn from academic sources, and Task 1 asks you to describe data rather than write a letter.
These articles cover what Academic requires, how its Reading conversion differs from General Training, and how to prepare for the two tasks that are unique to it.
