Questions about PTE and Athovia

What is PTE?

PTE is Pearson's computer-based English test. PTE Academic takes about 2 hours in three parts (Speaking & Writing, Reading, Listening), is scored by AI on a scale of 10 to 90, and gives results typically within 48 hours.

PTE Academic or PTE Core?

PTE Core is the general English test that IRCC recognises for Canadian economic immigration and citizenship. PTE Academic is used for study and for many visa routes. Pearson suggests PTE Core for migrating to Canada and PTE Academic for studying there. Always confirm the requirement with your university or immigration authority.

Scores run from 10 to 90, with an overall score and scores for each skill, produced by Pearson's AI scoring. Each university or visa route sets its own minimum, and PTE Core scores map to CLB levels. Scores are valid for two years.

PTE or IELTS?

Both are widely used for study and migration. PTE is fully computer-based and AI-scored, with results typically within 48 hours, while IELTS Speaking is a face-to-face conversation with an examiner.
