What is the structure of PTE Academic?
PTE Academic incorporates 20 integrated and innovative item types that use authentic, interactive task-based examples from academic settings to provide a realistic reflection of how language is used. Because many items set tasks that require test takers to make use of more than language skill, there are no sections testing one skill only. However, the first section addresses mainly speaking and writing skills, the second section focuses on reading skills and the last section concentrates on listening skills.
