Example report. Reading, Listening and the word-level Speaking tasks are counted. Fluency, pronunciation and the two written tasks are estimates on Pearson’s 10–90 scale, not Pearson results.
MockLive AI’s PTE Academic mock is a full sitting on Pearson’s timings, scored on the 10–90 scale with Read Aloud and Repeat Sentence marked word by word; a free 20-minute quick mock comes first, and the pass is 20 full mocks.
Some tasks have a target text, so we count your words against it. The rest are judged, and we say so.
35 items in about 26 minutes: 6 Read Aloud, 10 Repeat Sentence, 6 Describe Image, 3 Re-tell Lecture, 6 Answer Short Question, 2 Summarize Group Discussion, 2 Respond to a Situation.
Counted word by word where a target text exists. Fluency and pronunciation rated from your audio.
A score out of 90, the words you dropped, and the recording to listen to again.
40 minutes: 2 Summarize Written Text at 10 minutes each, in one sentence of 5 to 75 words, then 1 essay of 200 to 300 words in 20 minutes.
Judged, against the published criteria. Word limits and the one-sentence rule are checked first.
An estimated score, task by task, with the lines that cost you marks.
15 items in about 30 minutes: 5 fill in the blanks, 4 drag and drop, 2 single answer, 2 multiple answer, 2 reorder paragraphs.

Reading, Listening and the word-level Speaking tasks should be close, because they are counted the same way. Where that count lands on the 10–90 scale is our calibration, since Pearson’s algorithm is not published, so read the overall number as a range.
No, deliberately. The real test does not let you, and practice that does would leave you meeting that constraint for the first time on the day. Timers run down and the item advances whether or not you were ready.
Yes, all 7 spoken task types. The charts are drawn from real data tables rather than pulled from a stock library, which is how we can tell you exactly which facts your description missed. The lectures are written and read at academic pace, and each group discussion is voiced by three different speakers.
About 2h 8m on the clock — 26 minutes Speaking, 40 Writing, 30 Reading, 32 Listening. Those totals are the sum of the item timers the room enforces, so the section will not run longer than the page says.
Not until you have worked through the bank. Every sitting draws items you have not seen, and there are 20 complete mocks in a pass.
No. You pay once, you get 20 mocks, and they are valid for 365 days. Nothing charges you again and there is nothing to cancel.
Check what your university or visa route accepts first. PTE is scored by AI, with human review of some answers, and usually returns a result fastest. IELTS is the only one where you speak to a person, TOEFL adapts section by section in about two hours, and the Duolingo English Test is cheaper. We have practice for all of them, so we have no reason to push you to one.
