EILTS or TOEFL
Hi everyone! Currently I'm studying English and I'm upper-intermediate level. I'm planning to attend a university in an English-speaking country soon. And I have to take EILTS or TOEFL. My question is which test should I take? What is the main difference between those two? Any recommendations for the preparation? Thanks so much :)

For short, if u want to go to some European countries, EILTS is better. TOFEL is for American schools. Although over 3000 universities in US accept EILTS scores. If u have enough time, u can try the two.

If you want to go study in Canada, take the IELTS academic test. It's the one that Canadian colleges accept

IELTS. Definitely. It is a better test. I used to teach both of them and IELTS is by far superior. Most schools in the USA are now accepting IELTS as a substitute for TOEFL.
The IELTS is probably more difficult to get a high score, but it is a better test. The speaking part of TOEFL is a disaster, where as the IELTS you will speak with a live person. Don't let that bother you, the line of questioning for IELTS is not difficult, where as the format of the questions in TOEFL speaking is not so much about your speaking, as it is about following the instructions.
IELTS reading subjects are more pertinent to your daily life.
TOEFL listening may be easier for you if you are not accustomed to British (and other) accents.
Writing is pretty much the same. Although the IBT (TOEFL) allows you to type as opposed to hand writing your answers. This is more efficient.
Having taught both, I vote IELTS. It is a better test.
Good luck.
