About PTE Academic(Pearson test of English).

PTE Academic measures your English ability by testing your level of English through tasks which reflect real-life settings.Test timings.

Pearson Test of English Academic (PTE Academic) is an international computer-based English language test. It is designed to assess the readiness of non-native English speakers to participate in a university-level English language instruction program. It accurately measures English language ability and can be used to apply to educational institutions, and professional and government organizations. The test uses task-based questions to represent the kinds of functions and situations students will find themselves in during academic study.

Most real-life tasks in an academic setting involve using more than one language skill together, for example listening to a lecture and writing notes. PTE Academic reflects this through its 20 task types, each of which tests a combination of skills. For example, one task type asks you to demonstrate your understanding of a passage by providing a written summary, while another tests your understanding of a lecture by asking you to re-tell the lecture. The test is divided into three main parts and lasts for approximately three hours with an optional break of ten minutes:

  • Speaking and Writing: 77 to 93 minutes
  • Reading: 32 to 41 minutes
  • Break: 10 minutes(The break is optional)
