Gandhinagar (Gujarat) [India], July 16: With effect from August 7, 2025, Pearson has formally announced a revised format for the PTE Academic and PTE UKVI exams. This is one of the largest test updates in recent times, with modifications made to assess communication skills in real-world settings better.
The addition of two brand-new question types -- Summarize Group Discussion and Respond to a Situation -- in the Speaking section is one of the main modifications. In order to better align the test with communicative language use, the update also makes changes to the timing, scoring logics for a few important questions, and task distribution.
The student fraternity has been deeply alarmed by this announcement. In an attempt to maximize the time and effort they have already spent on preparing for the current format, many students are now desperately looking to reserve available exam slots before the new changes take effect. Many others, however, are still unsure about whether to start studying for the updated version or take the test before it is released. Their anxiety has only increased due to the uncertainty surrounding the scoring and assessment of the new question types as well as the newly curated exam. Students are therefore desperately looking for reliable websites and up-to-date materials to direct their study approach.
Alfa PTE has responded to these changes by becoming the first and only platform in the world to use the new format in its practice modules and mock exams. Weeks before the formal change takes place, students can start practicing the new format thanks to this early rollout.
"We are aware of the uncertainty that exam modifications can cause for students," Fatima Khan, Head of Training at Alfa Education, stated. "We wanted to eliminate uncertainty and provide students with a realistic sneak peek at what to anticipate. To create an authentic, exam-like experience that fully adheres to Pearson's most recent specifications, we have worked closely with both our academic and technical teams."
Key features of the Alfa PTE Update include:
* New Speaking tasks with real-time AI scoring available for practice;
* Full-length mock tests based on the updated PTE Academic format;
* Updated timings & scoring logics to reflect official changes;
* Instant feedback, analytics, and evaluations;
* Continued support for the old format for students taking the exam before August 7, 2025
Alfa PTE is now positioned as a leader in real-time exam simulation and preparation, adapting swiftly to the changing needs of students and Pearson's standards.
By signing into their accounts and going to the PTE Mock Test section of the Alfa PTE's website, students can now access the new format mock tests directly. For a more focused preparation, practice for the new Speaking tasks is also offered on an individual basis.
"Knowing what to expect on the test day is crucial, regardless of whether your goal is 65+ or 79+," the training head continued. "We take pride in being the first to assist students in preparing with assurance rather than uncertainty."
