Real Results
Band scores that changed futures
“I had failed IELTS twice before I found Nexus. My Writing was always the problem — it was sitting at Band 5.5. My tutor rebuilt my essay structure completely and I got 7.0 on my third attempt. I am now studying in Edinburgh.”
Fatima Al-S.

Both are accepted globally and neither is universally easier — it depends on your strengths.
