Time-Management Skills


Answering 73-80 questions in a 3-hour exam is not easy. It would be best if you practised enough to read the questions, understand them, and write them. But leaving no time for review is the most common mistake. Avoid it.


Study Materials


Do not keep scouring the web for PTE Study materials; you might end up getting some random and inauthentic materials. Get on to a trusted and proven platform that provides you with the practice materials for each section, question bank and mock tests.

Section-wise tips


Let's discuss the common tips for each section:

Writing


Understand the topic and plan your essay. Follow the PTE Essay Writing format and the word limit. In Summarise Written Text, be precise and write in one sentence. (Only one full-stop allowed).

Speaking

 
Focus on your Oral Fluency and Pronunciation. Also, take care to avoid pauses and unnecessary fillers. Record yourself and listen to improve the speech and voice clarity. Do not pause for more than 3 seconds and do not stop while speaking, even if you commit a mistake.

Listening


Listen to different content to get familiar with different accents. Practice taking the notes as you hear. Practising scanning and skimming the content to understand the context and identify the Keywords.

Reading


Practice reading as much as you can to develop reading speed. Develop the habit of finding out mistakes in noun, verb, or an adjective to improve grammar.

Good vocabulary


A strong vocabulary is necessary to clear the PTE-A Exam. Learn as many synonyms as possible. Practice using new words in your speech. It represents your language quality.

Confidence


To be confident, practice with microphone and headphones.

During your practice, attempt to replicate the noisy exam centre ambience (especially in the Speaking Module).

For instance, practice for the Speaking Module at home amidst deliberate chaos (for instance, have news play on TV on loud volumes). This will prepare you to concentrate in adverse environments.
