Test Day

You must come at least 30 minutes before to the commencement of your exam to complete the check-in and security procedures. You must bring valid identification, which is typically a passport.

The majority of PTE Academic exam centres have approximately ten seats available. You will be seated in a private booth surrounded by other test takers.

PTE Academic is administered at a secure testing centre, where you must provide identification, check in with the test administrator, and take the exam in a protected computer room.
