PTE Academic is used for university admission and skilled-migration visas, while PTE Core is accepted by IRCC for Canadian economic immigration. Both use the 10 to 90 scale, but Core has 19 scored task types to Academic's 22: it uses Write Email instead of Write Essay and has no Re-tell Lecture, Summarize Group Discussion or Highlight Correct Summary.

PTE reports an overall score and four skill scores (Speaking, Writing, Reading, Listening) on a 10 to 90 scale. Behind them, answers are scored on traits such as pronunciation, oral fluency, grammar and vocabulary, and many tasks contribute to more than one skill, so the overall score is a weighted reflection of your whole performance, not a simple average.

When you speak, every word is analysed acoustically (powered by Microsoft Azure Speech) right down to the individual sounds. Your report highlights each word in green, amber or red for clarity, flags mispronounced sounds, and shows where your rhythm was flat or your pausing and emphasis were off, plus a targeted list of words to practice. This mirrors the Pronunciation and Oral Fluency enabling skills in the real PTE.

It depends on your goal. Many universities ask for roughly 58 to 65 overall, but Australia PR points now depend on official per-skill PTE Academic cutoffs for your test date. PTE Core bands map to CLB levels for Canada. Always target the exact requirement for your visa or institution, not a generic number.

PTEMock provides automated practice feedback based on PTE marking criteria. A dedicated acoustic engine measures pronunciation, oral fluency and prosody from your real audio, while content and language are evaluated separately. Practice scores are estimates, not official Pearson results or a guarantee of your real PTE score.

The PTE Academic and PTE Core exams take roughly two hours and are completed in a single sitting on a computer, covering Speaking and Writing, Reading, and Listening. Our full mock tests replicate that length and timing.

PTE Academic has 22 scored task types across the four skills and PTE Core has 19, plus an unscored Personal Introduction in both. Core uses Write Email in place of the essay and has no Re-tell Lecture, Summarize Group Discussion or Highlight Correct Summary. You can practise the tasks individually or in a full mock.

Yes. PTE Academic is approved by the Australian Department of Home Affairs for skilled-migration and student visas, and is accepted by thousands of universities in Australia, the UK, New Zealand, Canada and the US. Always confirm the exact score your visa or institution requires: Home Affairs lists them on its English language requirements page.

Yes. PTE Core is accepted by IRCC for Canadian economic-class permanent-residence programs (such as Express Entry), and PTE Academic is accepted for study permits. Your PTE Core score maps to CLB levels used in the points calculation. The PTE Core score chart shows the CLB level for every score, and the PTE Core practice tests let you measure yours. IRCC lists the accepted tests on its Express Entry language test page.

PTE scores are generally valid for two years from the test date. Some institutions and immigration programs may apply their own recency rules, so check the requirement for your specific application.

You can take it up to 12 times within a 12-month window. You must wait until you receive your previous results before booking again, and only one booking can be open at a time. On PTEMock you can practice unlimited times to be ready in fewer real attempts.

Neither is objectively easier, but PTE is fully computer-based and expert-scored, which many test-takers prefer for fast, consistent results (often within 48 hours) and no human interviewer. If pronunciation and typing are your strengths, PTE often suits you well.

The official PTE fee varies by country, typically in the range of roughly US$200 to US$300. Check Pearson for the exact price in your location. Practising on PTEMock first helps you avoid paying for extra real attempts.

Record yourself and score the audio, not just the transcript. Target the specific sounds you get marked down on, add stress to key words to avoid a flat, monotone delivery, and keep a steady pace without long pauses. PTEMock gives you a word-level pronunciation report and a targeted practice list after every speaking test.

Aim for accuracy and fluency together: clear pronunciation, natural emphasis, steady pacing, correct task content, and staying within word limits in writing. Take full, timed mocks to build stamina, then drill your weakest task types and the exact words and sounds your report flags.
