Comparing scores/bands in IELTS, CAEL, TOEFL
Is there a website that compares scores/bands between IELTS, CAEL, and TOEFL? I want to find out the equivalent of different scores in those tests (for example, the IELTS-equivalent of a CAEL band 50 score).
Good question!
Add me to the list of the very curious. Ideally, I'd like to see a detailed chart that includes the number of sections, types of questions, and number of questions - and the time alloted to each section. Perhaps they could even be compared in terms of vocabulary too!
Here is one:

Do a google search and you'll probably find more. Looking at unversity entrance requiements from universities that take scores from both IELTS and TOEFL would also be useful. I suspect that these results must be based on some correlational studies. If you have access to a good library that subscribes to professional journals, you should probably be able to find these studies in the data base.

Harmony - Thanks for the link and suggestions. I keep wondering if students shop for a standardized exam depending on their weakness.
Have you seen any study on that consumer aspect of the higher education business?
