Who conducts the PTE Academic exam?
PTE Academic is conducted by Pearson. Always confirm dates, eligibility and the fee on the conducting body's own advertisement, since those change every cycle.
How should I prepare for PTE Academic?
Work through the syllabus one topic at a time, solving MCQs on each topic until you are consistently scoring above 80 percent, and read the explanation on every question you get wrong. Move to solved past papers once a subject feels solid, then sit full-length timed mocks in the final weeks so the clock stops being a surprise.
Are PTE Academic past papers available for free?
