PTE Academic 시험시간이 3시간에서 2시간으로 줄어듬 – 11월 16일 부터

아래 메일은 PTE 시험기관에서 보내온 내용으로 주요하게 2가지를 공유하고 있습니다.  (2021년 11월 16일 부터)

  1. PTE Academic 시험 시간이 3시간에서 2시간으로 줄어 들면서 시험문제의 문항도 줄어듬; 이 시험결과는 이민성에 제출하는 비자신청용으로 기존과 같이 사용할 수 있음
  2. PTE Academic Online이 가능해짐에 따라 온라인으로 시험을 볼 수 있다. 대신 이 시험 결과는 이민성에 제출하는 비자신청용으로 사용할 수 없고 대신 학업을 위한 영어시험으로 활용만 현재 가능함.

따라서, 시험을 준비하는 학생들 입장에서 특히 비자신청을 하는 학생들에게 희소식이 아닐 수 없음. 11월 16일 이전은 기존처럼 동일한 시험시간이 적용된다고 함.

 

메일 전문은 아래와 같음

Hi Soonchul,

We’re making some improvements to PTE Academic and we want to help you stay on top of the latest test updates and changes.

PTE Academic aims to be the fastest and most convenient English language test in the world. Starting from November 2021, the test will be available to take in a shorter two-hour format.

 

A shorter test duration 

PTE Academic is currently a three hour test, but that’s changing. From November this will be reduced to two hours. There will be no changes to the way that the test is scored or to the minimum scores set by institutions and governments.

Your clients can rest assured that the test will still provide an accurate assessment of their English language abilities.

 PTE Academic (until Nov 16)
11월 16일 전까지 
PTE Academic (from Nov 16)
11월 16일 부터 
3 시간 2 시간
70-82 문항 52-64 문항

Still a globally recognized test: PTE Academic is still accepted by all the same institutions and governments for study and visa applications as previously.  

The shorter version of PTE Academic will still test all four language skills, and include the same 20 question types that currently feature.

So, your clients will benefit from a shorter, less stressful experience on exam day. Any test taken from November 16th will automatically be the two-hour test.

Introducing PTE Academic Online

Lockdowns and test center closures have made sitting PTE Academic a challenge in some parts of the world over the last few months.

With that in mind, a new, online version of PTE Academic will be available from November 16th, as an additional option if your clients are unable to attend a test center. Test Bookings will be available on October 25th.

PTE Academic Online offers the same accuracy and reliability, but it’s far more accessible. Your clients will be able to sit the test from the comfort of their own homes or a private location.

Important information (PTE Academic Online 시험은 이민성에서 비자처리용으로는 인정이 안된다고 하오니 이점 혼동하지 마세요)

  • PTE Academic Online follows the new, shorter format of the main test. However, please note that the online version is only accepted for study applications, and your clients will need to check that it is accepted by their chosen institution.
  • PTE Academic Online is not accepted for visa applications. If your clients need to prove their level of English for a visa application, they will still need to sit PTE in a test center.  

A more streamlined score report

The PTE Academic score report will be updated to make test results information clearer for your clients. From November 16th Enabling Skills will be removed from the score report and replaced with a separate skills profile designed to help test takers identify practical ways to improve their scores.

The report will still show your clients’ overall score, and communicative scores for each language skill.

We hope that these new changes help you reach more clients, and provide better access to English testing around the world.

Kind regards,

The PTE Academic team
