Write from Dictation-PTE Listening

For this task, you will hear a sentence in the form of a recording. You must simply write down/type this sentence exactly as you heard it. 

You can only hear the audio or the sentence one time. 

✅ How do you respond to this task?

  • Write from Dictation is a high scoring task so you must focus on the recording very well. 
  • Try to memorize exactly what you hear and type all the words in the sentence in the box. 
  • The recording is only of a single sentence, so if you pay attention, you will most likely remember all the words being said. 
  • If you cannot recall a word or two, you can still make out the overall sentence after applying certain English grammar and language rules. 
  • Do not type directly on the screen, instead write down what you hear on your erasable board first. Once you have written down all the words you hear, then create a logical sentence and submit that as your response. 
  • Grammar, spelling, and punctuations are extremely important in this task, so after you have typed down a sentence you are confident with, double check your spellings, whether the sentence makes grammatical sense and if your commas, question marks and full stops are placed correctly. 
  • Prior to the exam, make sure to practice Write from Dictation PTE questions daily. 

✅ Scoring

Your ability to listen and recall a statement and then write it exactly as you hear it, including accurate spelling, is your response for Write from Dictation.

Multiple Choice, Multiple Answer-PTE Reading

Multiple Choice, Multiple Answer-PTE Reading

For this task, you will be given a certain text and you must select all the responses that are accurately suitable to the text. There is always more than one correct response for the Multiple Choice, Multiple Answer PTE task. 

To select a response, you must simple click on checkbox next to the response. 

✅ Strategies and Tips

  • The first thing you need to do is know how this task is scored. You gain a point for every correct response that is ticked and lose a point for every incorrect response. 
  • This means that it is not a good strategy to select all the options available, as it will usually just give you a score of zero.
  • Time management is of great importance in this task as well. 
  • Read the options available to you first and then read the paragraph quickly and comprehend it’s meaning in a general sense, but keep your focus on the specific words and meanings of the options you had read before. 
  • Keep a look out for any words or phrases that you see are being used often. If a phrase of two or three words in the passage is being repeated in the options, pay special attention to those and you will find that the answer is probably related to the passage.
  • PTE reading multiple choice multiple answer practice must include a lot of questions from previous tests as that can help you get familiar with the task.

✅ Scoring

Your ability to analyse, understand, and evaluate a short reading text on an academic subject is assessed in the Multiple Choice, Multiple Answers section.

Partial scoring will be applied if a certain part of your answer is correct but the other is incorrect.
