If you’re talking about going from one band to another, it does take quite a long time, I would say. I’d say half a band can take anywhere from 6 weeks to 3 months. An entire band could take 6 months to a year depending on; how much you study; what your work ethic is like and you know, in general, how fast you learn English… because everyone is different, right? OK?
But I’d say that if you go to a good language school with a good general English programme and you do your homework and if you have good exposure to different sources of English, you’re probably looking at 3 months maximum to go up half a band, I would say.
