You have a PTE test coming up. You know you need to prepare. And you have probably already looked at the options available: third-party apps, unofficial question banks, YouTube videos, study groups.

Some of them are useful. But almost all of them share the same fundamental problem: they were built by people who have never created the PTE test.

That means the questions are approximations. The scoring is estimated. And the feedback, however detailed it looks, is based on unofficial models that may not reflect how your real exam will be scored.

For a high-stakes test that determines your university place, your visa application or your immigration pathway, that uncertainty matters enormously. It is the difference between preparation and guesswork.

Official PTE AI Practice was built to close that gap entirely.

What is Official PTE AI Practice?

Official PTE AI Practice is Pearson’s AI-powered preparation platform for PTE Core. It is the only preparation platform built entirely by Pearson, the company that creates and administers the PTE test.

That means everything on the platform — the questions, the scoring, the feedback — is official. The questions are written by the PTE test development team. And the feedback is grounded in the same standards your examiner applies on test day.

The platform brings together official practice questions, AI-powered scoring, full mock tests, sectional practice, progress tracking and AI tutor support in one connected preparation experience designed for the way people actually study today.

How the platform works: from your first session to test day

Start with a free Diagnostic Assessment

The first thing every learner should do on the platform is the free Diagnostic Assessment. Available the moment you create your account, it covers all four PTE skills and gives the platform a baseline read on your performance before you spend a single hour studying.

Within minutes of completing it, you see your strengths, the question types where your preparation is already working, and your focus areas, the question types that need the most attention. You also receive a personalized recommended next step telling you exactly where to begin.

Practise your way with Quick Study

Quick Study gives you the flexibility to build sessions around your life. Got twenty minutes before work? Build a targeted session focused on your weakest question type. Want to work through a specific skill at a specific difficulty level? Choose your CEFR level and your mastery focus and the platform builds the session around your choices.

Practise under real test conditions

When you are ready to go further, practice tests puts you under the exact conditions of the real PTE test. Up to five full mock tests, built to the same format and scored to the same standard as the real test.

Four sectional tests give you targeted practice on specific areas of your preparation. These are shorter and more focused, designed to strengthen individual skills before you attempt a full simulation.

The most effective strategy is to use both: sectional tests to build, the diagnostic to direct, and practice tests to measure.

Get instant feedback that actually helps

After every session, your results appear immediately, and they go far beyond a single number.

Your Session Report shows your overall score, the items you attempted, the time you took and a breakdown of your performance by question type and mastery level. Each item is categorized as Mastered, Almost There or Incorrect, giving you a precise view of what is working and what still needs attention.

Start for free today

Official PTE AI Practice offers four access tiers, starting with a free option that gives you immediate entry to the platform and a selection of official practice content, including both free Diagnostic Assessments.
