Howdy! folks,many people say that there is no Difference between Ielts IDP and BC,of course they are right!
However,IDP has some differences when it comes to marking. Let me give an example,recently one of my friends has taken IELTS in IDP. He got 5 band score overall,but when he took in BC he got 5.5 for the same scores in LSRW. So here I understood that in IDP they do not round the score. He got 5.3 in BC,but they rounded as 5.5,however in IDP 5.3=5 only. So my advice you to write IELTS in BC only in order to get good band scores.I believe that due to these reasons we cannot have more available slots in BC.And I forgot to mention that IDP listening accent is quite different than BC,they may use Australian accent. So I strongly recommend IELTS BC only.
