The British Council will select eight students from India, each of whom will receive an award of Rs 3,00,000 towards the cost of tuition fees in an overseas institute.
British Council IELTS chief in India Kevin McLaven maintains that the test is still a true measure of a student's English proficiency.
Practice is the key to good band-scores and Indian students should make frequent use of the English language to improve their communication skills, says British Council's IELTS head in India, Kevin McLaven.
