cna anyone tell me is it necessary to do ielts if i want to go and study abroad and whats the age limit or range of doing ielts???anyhelp is appreciated

First of all there is no age limit since this test is also given by adults that want to apply for immigration purposes.
Secondly it is not compulsory. You have to go through the prospectus of the universities you want to apply. Most probably if you have an A in Olevels/IGCSE english there is no requirement of IELTS. And if you give SAT tou then there is no use at all. But it all depends on the university requirements, so check them out. I repeat it is not compulsory especially not when you have an A in Olevel/IGCSE english.

Hope this helped

IELTS is not compulsory to ALL the foreign universities but most universitoes of Canada, almost all the university of UK and USA require IELTS/TOEFL. It is also preferable to give IELTS before you apply to certain university because it gives a better picture of where you stand in English language.
