IELTS Pakistan - British Council or AEO?
Well, this decision should not be bothering you unless you are ready to take the exam!
As soon as you find out that you need to give proof of your English language proficiency at a certain level, you seek to take an English language test, such as IELTS, to achieve your target band score.
So you do things in a process, in an orderly fashion:
1. You test your level of English
2. You seek a qualified IELTS trainer to correlate your English level with the required band score
3. You go through the necessary English language training if needed to improve your language
4. You re-test your English level to confirm your new level correlation with the target band
5. You take IELTS test-taking skills training to get ready for the test
6. And once you're ready, you decide which location to go for, AEO or British Council?
So you see, until you've gone through the preliminary steps to get ready for the test, you need not worry about this decision of where to take the test?
Anticipating that you understand what you need to do and, having done that, you are ready for the test, let's help you make that decision.
Your decision for the choice of test center should only be based on your convenience rather than the worry, "Which site gives a better score?"
It is also seen on the IELTS official website that the tests throughout the centers across the globe are centrally managed. The tests are sent by the IELTS organization and to ensure reliability and the high quality standards, the tests are double marked by senior examiners with due feedback to the centers, where necessary.
You can go through all the details on the IELTS website. They have published quite a lot of information that should help clear the doubts you may have in your mind regarding any difference(s) between the IELTS tests at their different sites.

What you need to look at, in order to choose the right center, are things like:
1. What day of the week is the test being offered, is it convenient for me?
2. What time of the day will the test be, is it convenient for me?
3. How much will the test cost at each site, which is convenient for me?
And things of such sort.
