Mmmmmm - not sure I would equate PET with IELTS 6! IELTS 6 is university
entrance level, PET is lower intermediate.
Here are the equivalents according to a table I got last week: ESOL 3 =
Trinity grades 8-9 = IELTS 5.0-5.5 = FCE

Hi Datsy. I'm probably thinking of the various students I get from
countries which will be nameless (C****) who have IELTS 6 and above but
who'd have problems getting PET. Or KET come to think of it.
