Bandwise

About Bandwise

Take full tests in the computer-delivered format: 3 Listening tests with different voices and accents, and 5 Reading tests (3 Academic and 2 General Training), each with 40 questions. The screen works like the real test, with the passage and questions side by side, highlighting, a question navigator and review flags. Every question type is covered, and every answer comes with an explanation that shows where it is in the passage or recording.

For Writing, practice Academic Task 1 charts, processes and maps, General Training letters and 24 Task 2 essay questions, on screen with the real time limits or on paper. You get instant offline feedback on length, paragraphing, linking words, vocabulary and common errors, plus 19 model answers; AI marking is optional and uses your own API key. For Speaking, an examiner voice runs Parts 1, 2 and 3 with the real timings, and you can record and replay your answers.

A study plan is built from your exam date, target band and weekly hours, and progress charts show which question types cost you the most marks. An exam guide covers test types, scoring and test-day rules, including the 2026 move to computer delivery, and refreshes when you are online. Bandwise works offline once installed, with no account and no ads, in English or Arabic.
