Hello Aspirant,

Hope your doing good!

The TOEFL is more commonly accepted by American institutions, while the IELTS is more commonly accepted overseas, but many schools accept scores from either exam. ... Generally speaking, the majority of United States schools surveyed stated they preferred TOEFL scores over scores of other English-language tests.

PTE Academic, IELTS Academic or IELTS General? If IELTS General, choose IELTS General. It's easier.

A key difference between the exams is that, for the Reading and Listening sections, you’ll have to write your own answers for many of the questions on the IELTS, while all the answer choices will be given to you on the TOEFL. The TOEFL questions on these sections are not all multiple-choice, but most of them are, and for the ones that aren’t, you won’t have to produce your own answers.

The TOEFL and IELTS are the two most commonly administered English language proficiency exams. Both test the same four areas: Reading, Listening, Speaking, and Writing, but the tests vary in terms of format and the way they test skills.

Hope this helps, for more such queries ping us below

Thankyou, Good luck for everything ahead :)
