Here is the biggest distinction between IELTS and TOEFL: IELTS tests British English while TOEFL tests American English.
So if you are applying to UK, European countries or Australia, then IELTS is the better choice. And if you are considering US or Canada as your study destination, then TOEFL has an advantage.

Usually, the university gives you the option to choose from either IELTS or TOEFL. For American universities, TOEFL scores an edge over IELTS, as it tests your understanding of American English.
Is it necessary, this question depends on which course and university you apply to. If you have graduated form an English medium and very popular university in India, then you may not have to provide the TOEFL scores. You can mail the admission office at the American Universities of your choice and ask them whether your college/school qualifies for the English language exam waiver or not.

Instead of TOEFL. you can do IELTS . IELTS is accepted all over the world. TOEFL is accepted only in US. TOEFL is an online exam. IELTS is not online directly you have to appear. for both you have to write four papers. Reading Writing Speaking and Listening. Marks is given as band score 0 to 9 band. 0 means you don't know abcd. 9 means you are the best user of the language.
you need to take over all 6.5 band and minimum 6 band in all four components.

Hi Nikita
Applying for MPT will require lot of research before you zero down any university in Canada as an international applicant. I am sharing the requirements of one of the best universities UBC. Take a look and prepare all your documents and certificates. You also require some work experience.
