How to book, what ID to bring, and when results arrive
IELTS: book online on IDP India's site, in person at an IDP branch or registration partner, or by courier (how to register). Pick the test first, then the module and the test city, and choose a Hyderabad venue from the list. IDP asks for a copy of your passport (first and last pages, plus any observation pages) and you must bring the original passport on test day.
PTE: book on pearsonpte.com or through an authorised PTE partner. Choose the test, enter Hyderabad, pick a centre and a slot at least 24 hours ahead (Pearson's booking guide). Pearson's ID policy asks for a valid passport for all PTE tests, and your booking name must match it exactly.
Results: IDP's results page says IELTS on Computer results are typically available within 1–2 days of the test and paper results 7 days after it; IDP gives seven days for Life Skills. Pearson says PTE results typically arrive within two days. Before you pay, try a free IELTS mock test or a free PTE mock test to check you are ready.
