Good Luck Pardeep.

 

Thank you so much for your prompt response

 

Hi Pradeep,

I referred E2 Language's YouTube tutorials and also to their Website Videos. You can register on their website for free. They have videos on Grammar and Sentence formation, which are most important considering PTE-A. It took almost a month of preparation and two attempts for me to clear the exam with 79+ in each section. Although, I can openly say that it definitely is easier and simpler than IELTS, so don't worry.

Also, as you register on PTEs website, do buy their Practice Test package. It helps in calming your nerves before the exam. Mock test gives you the experience of the real exam (3 hours) and the test scores give you an idea of where exactly you need to improve.

Hope it helps. Cheers!

Regards,

 

Alright, I will do the same thanks for your kind reply. Hoping for the best

 

I studied through E2 Language videos on youtube. These videos are exhaustive and give you complete idea of the question, how it is marked and also tips and strategies on how you should address each type of question.

Once you get clear understanding of the question types, you need to practice. I used PTE Academic Book and McMillan PTE Builder. Also referred some online material - but then there is too much material online and some of the content is incorrect and tough compared to PTE standards.

Do take mock tests from Pearson (I did not do this due to lack of time available). This will give you idea about areas of improvements and also time management aspect of the test.

During last week you can refer to PTE Real Exam Questions from FireFly etc just for sake of practice. I got the PDF online while searching on Google and used only for practicing Describe Image and from the 30-35 images in the PDF I got 4 images (out of 6) in PTE exam.

 

Wow, it seems very useful information, thanks if you have anything else to share please don't hesitate to forward (I mean you notes or scripts )

 

Hi, the difference between proper preparation and lack of preparation is around 20 marks in PTE. Take a practice test without preparation. If you are getting 65+, then with preparation you should be able to score 85+.
Some tips:
Target full score 90 in all areas. Don't aim for 79.
Create a preparation plan. The plan will be for around 2 months.
If your score without preparation is less than 65, you will have to spend extra effort increasing your basic english skill.
Make a test taking strategy as well, to prepare for surprises and problems during test taking, mindset preparation, including what you eat on test day. I scored around 69 in practice test before preparation, and after preparation got 90 in all areas in the actual test.
Watch youtube videos people are recommending, but there are many other videos. Trust your instinct and do what is best fit for you. No single source is complete for your specific needs.
If you need more details, PM me, happy to share my experience.

 

Here is some material that I collected for study purpose:

Hey,
Thanks for sharing the material.
I need some tips for getting 79+ in writing.
I appeared for PTE twice, but got 74 marks in writing during both attempts.

Later I quit.
Now after a year I am planning to reappear and start from scratch.

Do you guys suggest me to join some classes? Or should I go ahead with self-study?

Please suggest.

Thanks.

 

Thank you

Hi guys what is validity of pte scores 2 or 3 years?

 

DHA considers PTE exam taken in the last 36 months, that is 3 years.

 

Hey,

I am currently in Australia and planning for a PTE exam. I have a question regarding address to be updated in the profile section of the PTE portal.
Earlier it was India's address - my home location, now that I am in AUS, should I update the address to current AUS address?

Can someone guide.
Thanks.

 

Address will not matter. Update to your present/current address.

 

1. written: I can mail you 52 essay topics which you can practice, DM me
2. follow e2 laguage and PTE gold on youtube
3. speaking: you have to speak without any fillers

Pro tip: while practicing writing, don't write on MS Word. First write everything on notepad and then copy the material to MS Word. Your text should not have any red or green line. Re frame and correct your grammar or any wrong vocabulary.

All the best.

 

I would also add PTE Authority @ pteauthority[dot]com to the list. They have free high quality lessons and heaps of practice questions. And the best part is, no subscriptions. It runs on a credit based system. You only pay for what you use. When you sign up, you get free credits which you can use to practice questions. Lessons are free. You only need to top up credits when you run out of them.
