The IELTS exam does not need any special educational eligibility. Anyone can take it, no matter what education they have. You can have finished high school, done a bachelor's degree, or have any other level of education.
The IELTS checks your English skills in Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking. It does not look at your educational qualifications. The exam is for people from different education backgrounds. It gives everyone a chance to show their English language ability.
