How does PTE software analyze your score?

PTE uses an automated scoring system which means a better test for applicants as PTE pioneered machine scoring in English tests.

Automated scoring is designed to match the way an expert examiner would mark your test. To achieve this, they ask examiners to score thousands of sample questions and feed these results into their algorithm. Creating an accurate automated scoring system took vast data in 2020 alone.

So, when you take your test, your answers are not just reviewed by one examiner; they are compared against millions of past responses and the combined knowledge of hundreds of examiners to give you the most accurate, objective, consistent score possible.
