The answer is to focus on your current English proficiency, your target PTE score, and the sections you struggle with most. Look for resources that specifically address those areas and cater to your learning style (e.g., visual, auditory, hands-on practice).

Use quality resources, manage time strictly, review mistakes, build vocabulary and grammar, take full mock tests, and stay confident.

No, you can't "fail" the PTE exam, but you can fail to achieve your target score from the institution you're applying to. Note that there is no universal "pass" or "fail" mark for the PTE Academic test. 

Universities and immigration bodies will consider your best overall score from a single sitting that meets all their specific criteria (including sectional cut-offs). 

You can choose to share only your best scores if you have taken multiple attempts of the PTE esam. Your university or visa offices cannot view the scores from your other attempts (except from the ones that you share).

You need to balance on both speed and accuracy, but accuracy usually comes first, especially for content-based questions in the PTE exam.

• Accuracy: Without accuracy, speed is useless. Incorrect answers written fast or even in full length don't get any marks.
• Speed: PTE is highly timed exam. You must learn to work quickly and efficiently. Hence, the ideal approach is to practice until you can achieve accuracy within the time limits for each question type.
