لماذا تخطيط الدرجات مهم

Skilled Worker applicants often prepare for a headline overall band but miss per-skill SELT minimums—or book standard IELTS when UKVI approval is mandatory. Sponsors may also expect B2 communicative ability even when B1 satisfies the visa floor, which can affect certificate of sponsorship decisions. Using expired results or a non-approved test centre invalidates your application and forces a costly retake at the worst moment in your relocation timeline.
