| Duration | Approximately two hours |

This is original, unofficial practice material. PrepSim is independent of Pearson, does not reproduce official questions and cannot issue an official score. Sets are AI-authored, programmatically checked and not yet reviewed by a human PTE examiner.
Use complete tests to practise switching between speaking, writing, reading and listening under one clock. Task practice is better for isolating skills such as oral fluency, summary writing, paragraph cohesion or listening accuracy.
These short examples show the style of reasoning used in the simulator. They are illustrative and are not a full practice paper.
Aim for a complete, natural reading with clear word endings.
Pause only at the clause boundary. Keep ‘surface temperatures’ connected and avoid adding or omitting words; both content and oral fluency matter.
Extended library hours increased late-night attendance during exams, although the university also faced higher staffing and transport costs.
Combine the outcome and limitation in one grammatical sentence within the applicable 5–75 word range.
Pattern information was reviewed against the official PTE Academic test format on . Exam rules can change, so check the latest official information before booking or sitting an exam.
Integrated tasks can use more than one communication skill, so a spoken or written response may contribute beyond its primary section.
Yes. Task practice assigns only that task type, while section and complete-test modes preserve broader pacing.
No. PrepSim reports weighted practice points. It does not convert them to Pearson's official 10–90 scale.
