Why PTE Mock Tests are Important Before Appearing For The Final Exam

The Person Test of English Academic (PTE) is an English Proficiency test is given by the people who are willing to travel to Australia for studies or work purpose. 

This test is taken to check if you are eligible to understand that countries language and if it will be easy for you to adjust in that country.

Before appearing for this exam, you should always take mock tests. If you have enrolled yourself in some PTE coaching classes, these classes allow you to appear for the mock tests. 

In this blog, you will come to know why it is essential to take mock tests before giving your final PTE exam.

You Are Educated About The Test Format

✅ One of the vital reason to give a mock test before the exam is that it allows you to experience a real exam like situation. This gives you an idea about how much time will be allocated to you for completing each section.

✅ It is beneficial to give mock tests as you will be able to measure your speed and see how many questions you can attempt in that time. 

This informs you if you are required to work on your speed to attempt all the questions in the final exam.

Know What Areas Need More Preparations

✅ PTE consist of 3 sections: Listening, Writing, Reading, and Speaking. When you appear for mock tests, you are being examined for all these sections. 

These mock tests tell which area needs more preparation and which sections you are doing good and can score good marks.

✅ As mock tests tell you about your areas of improvement, it becomes easy for you to plan your next step, and you know how to work upon it.

Increases Your Chance of Scoring Good Marks

✅ As we all know, practice is the key to perfection. The same thing implies here. When you give more and more mock tests before the final exam, your chances of scoring good marks increases. 

When you appear for mock tests, the maximum number of times it also increases your confidence.

✅ As your score increases with every passing mock test, you gain the confidence of performing well in the final examination. This confidence is essential to score the best marks in the PTE test.

Get Expert Advice

✅ When you give mock tests through the PTE Coaching center or via any other platform, you come to know what areas need more improvement or work. 

If it becomes difficult for you to figure out how to work on the improvements, you can always take the expert’s advice.

✅ Mock tests help you seek that advice so that you can score the best marks in the exam. Experts’ advice always shows the right direction for your preparations.

Cost Saving

✅ When you appear for the final exam without giving practice mock tests, there are changes you might not score good marks. 

This is because you don’t know what type of questions will be asked and do you have that speed of attempting those questions in the allocated time. 

And ad a result, you will end up scoring fewer marks, and you have to try the test again.

✅ Now, if you give mock tests and work on all the parameters to score good marks, there are changes you will clear the test in a single attempt. This will save your cost of reattempting the test.

Conclusion

Mock tests are essential before you appear for the final exam as they let you know where you stand in your preparations and help you gain the confidence to perform your best in the final tests.

The Mistakes to avoid for getting a higher score in the PTE Speaking module

The Mistakes to avoid for getting a higher score in the PTE Speaking module

PTE speaking test is one of the hardest parts of the test for many test-takers. Especially, non-native speakers are quite reluctant while speaking and this situation is quite normal in PTE.

So, below are the common mistakes which you must avoid to improve your scores drastically. 

The more you practice, the more you can be cautious about these mistakes, so you can easily avoid them in the real exam scenario.

✅ Always best to Test your Microphone before starting

Before diving into the test’s main details, the most important thing is to ensure that your microphone works properly. Pearson allows test takers to check their recorded voice. 

Hence, if you come across any technical issues, ask your examiner for the change of headset immediately, and lodge an incident report.

Pro Tip: Never take an exam with faulty microphones – so test them first and then speak your test confidently.

✅ Avoid Speaking too fast, and practice with your natural flow

For PTE, Oral Fluency and Pronunciation are the two important elements that are assessed in your recorded speech. So, we would always suggest you speak in your natural tone and speed. 

When you speak too fast, this will only sound unnatural, and the best thing you can do while practicing is record yourself and create your own pace of speaking so that you can avoid speed problems during the real test.

Gentle Reminder: Take a deep breath and just slow it down a bit.

✅ Focusing on the Wrong Tasks more

This is one of the most overlooked mistakes, and students often lack in prioritizing their time. Repeat Sentence is one of the hardest and high-scoring tasks at the same time. 

You must make sure that you prioritize this task of Repeat Sentence and try to get all the sentences right in your real test.

✅ Focus on your exam irrespective of the background noise

 It is quite normal to feel nervous and anxious when everyone next to you sitting in the exam hall is speaking aloud. 

But you have to constantly remind yourself that you don’t need to shout and continue with the same pace and tone of your voice. Speaking loud might actually impact your voice’s quality, and that will definitely drag down your scores.

✅ Must practice with a mask

Because of COVID restrictions, Pearson has made masks compulsory, and based on the recent experiences, we have recorded the major problem students have regarding the speech delivery with the masks on. 

So, it’s always better to wear and practice speaking with masks before you appear for the real exam. With constant practice, you will be more clear and confident during the speaking test.
