Pearson Test of English (PTE) is the computer based English test. It is one of
the most popular English tests which is undertaken by students and aspirants
who desire to go abroad to study or immigrate to a major English speaking
country. PTE assesses a test taker’s English language proficiency across four
skills: Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking.
PTE is
increasingly getting popular amongst students and aspirants across the world
as results are announced swiftly and the test duration is relatively shorter
compared to other English Tests. The time duration for PTE test is
approximately 2 Hours 15 mins only.
The overall PTE score
ranges between 10 and 90 points. The higher score reflects candidate’s better
understanding and ability to communicate in English. Each immigration body,
university, workplace or institution will have specific PTE score
requirements. PTE score remains valid for 2 years.
Generally, the
best way to prepare for PTE test is to join a training or class and receive
lectures face-to-face. Specifically, writing is a section which requires
constant evaluation and there is always a scope for improvement. Similarly,
Speaking also requires expert evaluation. Candidates who join institutes for
