Who this page is for
Nurses only.
Overview
Nurses should start from the regulator table. Many prefer OET because the writing task looks like work. That is not the same as 'OET is easier'. Speaking role-plays fail people who memorise scripts. IELTS Task 2 fails people who cannot argue. See also OET vs IELTS for Indian nurses.
What actually matters
- Offer list and visa list are different documents.
- Format match beats folklore about ease.
- StudyWhere chat can check the named universities.
How to decide this week
Write down destination, course, and every university. Check each English row. Then open the matching cluster: IELTS, PTE, SELT, OET.
