Getting To Know The Real PTE
You can obviously read the PTE Exam Pattern from guides, blogs, books, etc but nothing comes close to actual experience. If you are going for PTE Academic for the first time, it can surprise you in a lot of ways. Even if you knew the pattern in reading. It's important to get the real taste of PTE Academic in order to plan out your studies for PTE.
Time Management
Some tasks are individually timed while you get to choose your time on others but there is always a clock ticking. Like many exams, PTE needs time management. Good time management can give you enough time to formulate perfect answers and finish the whole test. There is nothing more effective than mock tests for this. In Reading and Listening, you will need your time management skills the most as you are only given 'total time'. Whereas Speaking & Writing is individually times so you need to get used to performing the task in the given time.
