Hello Dear,

IELTS stands for International English Language Testing System. It is an English Language Proficiency Test required to be taken by international candidates where English is the main language of communication.
IELTS is accepted for university admissions are the UK, Australia, New Zealand, USA, and Canada .

The two different types of IELTS are more similar than they are different .There are Listening and Reading sections with 40 questions each and a Writing section with two tasks along with an IELTS Speaking interview, these two versions of the IELTS have Writing sections that are half the same .

Difference between IELTS Academic and IELTS General Training :
All of the differences lie in IELTS Reading and IELTS Writing .The IELTS General Training Reading passages are shorter on average. The passages are also more varied, covering more work and living subject matter. And in Writing , the first GT task is far less academic; you write a letter instead of summarising a scholarly source.

With that being said, the answer to the question you asked is the General Training IELTS is probably easier than the Academic IELTS.

You can follow the official website of IELTS to get a more clear idea along with practice sets.

Hope it helps
Thank you !!!
