The Whole Exam
Our catalogue covers 23 distinct task types across Academic and Core: 7 Speaking, 3 Writing, 5 Reading and 8 Listening. Each variant uses a subset of these tasks. Choose your variant and review your task feedback to decide what to practise next.
7 tasks · Content, Oral Fluency and Pronunciation where they apply
Unbadged tasks appear in both Academic and Core. Feedback depends on the task; a VIP plan adds the words the recognizer could not place.
Practice Speaking →3 task types · content, form, grammar, vocabulary and more
Marked trait by trait against the PTE scoring tables, with a comment on each trait and a model answer to compare against.
Practice Writing →5 tasks · partial credit and negative marking
Incorrect selections in multiple-answer tasks lose marks, with a floor of zero for the item. Every question explains its answer.
Practice Reading →8 tasks · the largest task count of any section
Write from Dictation is marked word by word, because that is how the marks are actually awarded. Every objective question explains its answer.
Practice Listening →Exam Pattern
PTE Academic runs in three parts and contains 22 scored task types. Speaking and Writing share one timed block, Reading has its own, and Listening closes the test.

Mock Tests
One section at a time on its own clock, or all four in exam order. Every run ends with a report: marks for each section, an estimated score on the 10–90 scale, and every answer to review.
A VIP plan makes them unlimited, along with scored speaking answers.
The Preparation Cycle
Use your feedback to choose a task, practise it, and review your progress. Adapt this cycle to your preparation time and target scores.
Sit one sectional mock test per section and see which score is lowest.
65 or 79 changes what you practise, not just how much.
Practise one task type at a time, then review the score and feedback when ready.
Trait comments in speaking and writing, the explanation for every reading and listening answer.
Every week or two. Stamina and accuracy fail in different ways.
One attempt is noise. Book the test when the trend clears your target.
How Our Scoring Works
This is not Pearson’s engine, and no third-party score — ours included — can be more than an estimate. Use the feedback to guide your next practice session.
Objective Reading and Listening tasks use answer keys, with partial credit and negative marking where applicable. Use the item feedback to understand mistakes; practice scores remain estimates.
Feedback is provided for the traits that apply to the task, with estimated scores on the 10–90 scale. These scores do not guarantee a real test result.
Describe Image and Re-tell Lecture reward relevance in ways a model approximates. Use these as a trend across attempts, not single-attempt truth.
Understanding Scores
PTE reports overall and individual skill scores on a 10–90 scale. The overall score is not the arithmetic average of the four skill scores. Practice results are estimates and do not establish admission, visa or professional eligibility.
Check the exact test variant, test date and score requirements with the organisation receiving your result.
