Among non-native English speakers preparing to pursue further education, employment, or migration opportunities in English-speaking nations like Australia, New Zealand, Canada, the UK, the USA, etc., the Pearson Test of English (PTE) has gained recognition over the years as one of the widely accepted computerized English language proficiency assessment tests preferred by applicants and organizations due to its comparatively easier structure,convenience, and faster results.
Priorly, PTE had two formats: Academic and General. However, PTE General was discontinued midway. Thus, currently, the major PTE tests are PTE Academic and PTE-UKVI, alongside PTE Home.
PTE Academic: The eligibility criteria for this format is that one can only prepare for the PTE Academic test once they’re 16 years of age or older. This is the most commonly taken PTE test, be it for educational, professional, or migrational purposes.
PTE Academic UKVI: This specific test is prepared for and preferred by students and working professionals hoping to migrate to the United Kingdom.PTE Academic UKVI is approved by the UK Home Office as a Secure English Language Test (SELT), adding to its accreditation.
The main difference between PTE Academic and Academic UKVI is the registration process and country-specific components of the tests. With the former, applicants have the option to choose between numerous foreign countries, while PTE-UKVI is specifically designed for the visa and immigration systems of the United Kingdom.
In the 2-hour test, your performance in the below-mentioned parts adds up to your total score, which can range from the lowest being 10 to the highest score being 90.
A score above 50 is the ideal PTE score approved by most organizations.
Apart from the Academic and Academic UKVI versions, PTE Home is another popular choice among PTE aspirants who wish to apply for a family or settlement visa in the UK. The result for PTE Home is given in a pass/fail format and can be found in three levels, which are A1, A2, and B1.
