Ưu đãi mới nhất về bài thi PTE

When PTE Core launches later in 2023, it will be recognized by the Canadian Government for work and migration visas. It will also be accepted for Canadian citizenship applications.

So if you need to apply for work or migration visa for Canada, then PTE Core will be the right test for you.

PTE Core will not replace PTE Academic; it is a new test for general English skills (instead of academic English skills) and will initially be available only for work and migration visa routes to Canada.

You should choose PTE Academic if:

You plan to study in Canada or any other part of the world. PTE Academic continues to be accepted by all the same universities and professional institutions as before.

You plan to work in or migrate to Australia, New Zealand or the UK

You should choose PTE Core* if:

You plan to work or to apply for permanent residency in Canada.

* Bookings for PTE Core will open in late 2023

Yes. PTE Academic is still the only PTE test that is suitable for studying in Canada.

You will be able to book a test later in 2023. We will announce the date closer to the time.

The difference between the two tests is that PTE Core focuses entirely on testing your English skills in everyday situations, rather than in academic settings.

For example, you may be asked to read a magazine article or write an email. You will not be asked to consider lecture materials or academic articles.

Otherwise, the two tests share many of the same features. Like PTE Academic, PTE Core is a computer-based test taken at a test center, and it covers the four skills of speaking, listening, reading and writing. It is marked through automated scoring, and will give you your score within two days.

No. PTE Core will only be available to take in PTE test centers.

The PTE Core test will have a score range of between 10 and 90, with 90 being the maximum score. Test Takers will receive a personalized Score Report that shows the overall test score plus the score breakdown for each of the four English skills (Reading, Writing, Listening, and Speaking).

The score you will need for your visa will depend on the type of visa you apply for. This score requirement can be found on the Canadian Government website. Your application may require a Canadian Language Benchmark (CLB) score. Pearson will publish guidance on how a PTE score relates to a CLB score. This information will be available once bookings open later in 2023.

The most valuable way to prepare is to familiarize yourself with the test format.

We will provide a test handbook as well as videos and written instructions to guide you through each question type. We also plan to make other preparation materials available in the future.

Once booking opens, PTE Core will be available to take in PTE test centers in Canada and around the world.
