IELTS monopoly broken, Australia begins to accept other English test scores

Australia's Immigration Minister Chris Bowen announced last week that English test results other than IELTS will be accepted for student visa applications. TOEFL, Pearson and Cambridge Advanced English exams are now acceptable. Thus, the situation of IELTS monopolizing the Australian study abroad market has officially come to an end. For a large number of overseas students, more exam options mean more opportunities.
