I have done a little research on median IELTS scores and their impact on a success rate in GMAT Verbal section. Unfortunately, since available resources are rather limited (at least I wasn't able to find them!) I would like to ask about your experiences. On average, non-native English speaker with an IELTS score of 7.0-7.5 should be able to achieve reasonable results in Verbal section but it's easy to imagine that a native speaker will (on average) score at least 15-20% higher. It might be interesting to compare IELTS results (academic module) with your final GMAT Verbal section score.

An IELTS Academic score of 7.0–7.5 generally indicates:
  • Strong reading ability
    Good academic vocabulary
    Solid grammar control
    Ability to understand complex texts

Interesting topic. From what I’ve seen, there is some correlation, but it’s not always that straightforward. IELTS mainly tests general English proficiency, while GMAT Verbal is more focused on critical reasoning and reading under time pressure. Someone with a solid IELTS score can still struggle with GMAT Verbal if they’re not used to the question style. So I’d say IELTS gives a rough baseline, but specific GMAT practice plays a huge role in the final score.
