Hi all! I just wanted to know if top schools in US would generally prefer TOEFL over IELTS.

Hello,

There is no "preference" of one test over the other, only specific test admission. If a law school says on its website that it accepts both, then it accepts both without discriminating against one in favour of the other. If it only mentions TOEFL and/or clearly states that IELTS score are not acceptable (such as Columbia Law School) or vice versa, then it only accepts the English test it mentions.

Good luck.

I agree with the comment above.

It is best to take TOEFL anyway. However, if you plan to apply for any UK universities, considering taking IELTS test is also a good option and apply to the schools which accept IELTS result.
