65-85 scored questions in three parts, plus the unscored Personal Introduction. Plan for 2 to 2.5 hours and find a quiet room with headphones and a microphone. You can save and resume at any question.
- Audio is your browser's text-to-speech voice, not recorded human speakers. Voices differ by device and browser.
- Saved only in this browser. Nothing is uploaded, and no account is needed.
- Speaking questions use your microphone. Audio stays on your device unless you choose the browser transcript, which uses Chrome or Edge's own speech service. The on-device transcript keeps audio on your device. Both give an estimate and are off unless you choose one on each question.
What the full mock contains
PTE Academic has three parts that you sit in one session: Part 1 Speaking & Writing, Part 2 Reading and Part 3 Listening. The table is the structure this mock is built from. Pearson's 2025 update added two speaking task types, and the original 20 stayed, so the test now has 22 question types.
Part 1: Speaking & Writing
Pearson lists 76-84 minutes and 9 task types for this part.

Question counts are the ranges in Pearson's PTE Academic Test Taker Score Guide; part durations, prompt lengths and times are from Pearson's test format pages. Checked 2026-10-10. Pearson does not give a time limit per Reading or Listening question, only the part total.
How each mock is put together
Every run starts from a random seed, shown on screen as a short mock code. The seed decides which questions you get and their order inside each task type; a reload gives you the same mock, and a new run draws different questions. Inside one run no question is used twice.
- Counts inside Pearson's ranges. Pearson gives a range of questions per task type (for example 6 to 7 Read Aloud). Each run draws a number inside the range, so two mocks can differ by a question or two, as two real test versions do.
- Pearson's order and task timers. Task types appear in the order Pearson lists them, with its preparation and answer times (for example 25 seconds to prepare and 40 seconds to speak in Describe Image).
- Part clocks for Reading and Listening. Pearson publishes only the part total (23-30 and 31-39 minutes), not a time per question. The mock sets one part clock inside that range in proportion to how many questions it drew. That rule is ours.
- Audio is text-to-speech.Recordings are read aloud by your browser's built-in voice, not by recorded human speakers, so they sound different from the test and vary by device. You can choose the accent. Each recording plays once.
- Original questions. Every item was written for this site. None is a real, past or predicted exam question.
How to take the full mock well
- Set up as for test day. Quiet room, headphones, microphone allowed in your browser, a stable connection and about two and a half hours. Use Chrome or Edge if you want the optional transcript.
- Do not stop the clock to look things up. The Part 2 and Part 3 clocks keep running, and you cannot go back to an earlier question, as in the test. If you must stop, use Save and exit.
- Answer every question. A blank answer scores 0, and a wrong choice in a multiple-choice question with several answers takes a point away, so choose only options you can support.
- Press Check my score after each speaking answer. That is what puts the question into your report. Skip a question only if you cannot answer it.
- Read the report by task type. Start with the three weakest task types it lists and practise those with the linked practice pages before you sit another mock a few days later.
What is scored, and what the report is not
Pearson lists the Personal Introduction as not scored, so the mock treats it as a timer only. Every other task type counts. Pearson's Score Guide says all question types are scored by AI and that some, including Describe Image, Re-tell Lecture, Summarize Group Discussion, Respond to a Situation, Summarize Written Text, Summarize Spoken Text and Write Essay, also get a human review of content. Our report cannot reproduce that.
- Marked with Pearson's per-question rules: fill in the blanks (1 per correct blank), Re-order Paragraphs (1 per correct adjacent pair), multiple choice with several answers (+1 per right choice, -1 per wrong one, never below 0), single-answer questions (1 or 0), Highlight Incorrect Words (+1 and -1), Write from Dictation (1 per correct word) and Answer Short Question (1 or 0).
- Estimated from a transcript or your own ticks: Read Aloud, Repeat Sentence, Describe Image, Re-tell Lecture, Summarize Group Discussion and Respond to a Situation. The transcript is optional. Pronunciation is never measured, and fluency is only a rough estimate of pace (plus long pauses with the on-device transcript, which supplies word timings).
- Estimated with simple text checks: Summarize Written Text, Summarize Spoken Text and Write Essay (length and form, key points, repeated phrases). Grammar and spelling are only partly checked.
The report shows percentages for each task type, each skill and the whole mock. They are practice estimates, not official scores. They are not converted to Pearson's 10-90 scale, because Pearson does not publish how item points are weighted into the four skill scores. Use them to find your weakest task types, then practise those. For how the real scores work, see the PTE exam pattern guide and the PTE score chart.
Save, resume and privacy
Your mock is saved in this browser's local storage as you go: the questions drawn, your answers, your speaking results and the clock. Close the page and press Resume mock next time to carry on where you stopped. The clock does not run while the page is closed. You can clear the saved mock or restart with new questions at any time.
- Nothing is uploaded and no account is needed. The saved mock does not follow you to another browser or device.
- Microphone audio stays in your browser. It is never sent to this site and never saved, not even locally, so a recording is gone when you leave the page.
- The on-device transcript runs a speech model inside your browser, so the audio is not uploaded (the model downloads once from third-party hosts). The browser transcript, in Chrome and Edge only, sends your voice to the browser's own speech service. Both are off unless you turn one on for a question. If you do, the transcript text is kept in your saved mock on this device.
- Finished task sets are added to your practice progress, also stored only in this browser.
Other ways to practise
If two and a half hours is too long today, take one part on its own. The sectional mocks use the same banks, timers and report.

Frequently asked questions
How long does the full PTE mock test take?
Expect roughly 2 to 2.5 hours. Pearson lists 76-84 minutes for Speaking & Writing, 23-30 for Reading and 31-39 for Listening, and says the real test is about 2 hours because its versions are balanced for total length. Our mock does not rebalance, so a run with many questions can take longer than a real sitting. You can save and resume between questions.
Does the full mock give me a PTE score?
No. It gives practice estimates as percentages for each task type, each skill and overall. They are not converted to Pearson's 10-90 scale and are not a prediction of your result. Only Pearson issues an official score.
Is it the same length and format as the real test?
It follows Pearson's parts, task order and task timers, and draws a question count inside Pearson's published range for each task type, 65-85 scored questions in all. The differences: the audio is browser text-to-speech and often shorter than the test recordings, the Reading and Listening part clocks are our own rule inside Pearson's range, and the items are original practice questions.
Does the mock include the 2025 task types?
Yes. Pearson added Summarize Group Discussion and Respond to a Situation to Speaking & Writing for tests taken from 7 August 2025, and removed none of the original task types. Both are in the mock, with their own practice pages.
Do I need a microphone?
Part 1 has seven speaking task types, so yes if you want to practise them. If you cannot record, skip a question and it scores 0, or run the Reading or Listening mock on their own. The optional transcript gives an automatic estimate; without it you can tick the key points you covered or compare your recording with the text yourself.
Can I pause the mock and come back?
Yes. Your questions, answers and clocks are saved in your browser as you go, and the mock page shows a Resume mock button. The clocks stop while the page is closed, which a real test would not allow. Clearing site data removes the saved mock.
Will the same questions come up again?
Never inside one run. A new run draws a fresh set from the question banks, so repeats across runs are possible once you have taken several, because the banks are finite.
