How does the cross-converter work?
This cross-converter provides statistical alignment between IELTS, TOEFL iBT, PTE Academic, and Duolingo scores using official concordance research published by the test developers themselves. Standardized English language tests use vastly different assessment logic and scoring ranges.
The engine models overlaps by anchoring the discrete bands of IELTS Academic (0–9) against the continuous scales of PTE Academic (10–90) and Duolingo (10–160), while aligning parallel subsets of the TOEFL iBT (0–120) range.
Which official sources does this converter use?
- ETS: Compare TOEFL iBT Scores — Official concordance between TOEFL iBT and IELTS Academic published by the Educational Testing Service.
- Pearson PTE: Concordance Guidelines — Detailed research comparing Pearson Test of English metrics to other global scales.
- Duolingo English Test: Understand Scoring — Official Duolingo comparative tables tracking statistical alignments to TOEFL and IELTS formats.
Note: Concordance data are statistical estimates for comparing general language proficiency. Universities and governments set their own threshold policies. Always verify the explicit score requirements mandated by your target institution.
