PTE-A
Pearson Language Tests developed the Pearson Test of English (PTE). The PTE is an English language proficiency exam that is used for study abroad and immigration. As an integrated English language test, it concentrates on a variety of abilities that students will require in university. PTE is more suited to non-native English speakers, making the training more useful. It’s a computer-based exam, and the results are usually ready in five business days.
