Achieving 65 in the PTE exam is completely possible. However, the easyness or difficult of it depends on the individual's preparation and strategy. As the PTE exam consists of inetgrated-skills based questions, candidates may find it easier to attempt on several tasks. While some may be intimated with its completely computer-based format, others may find it more convenient than the other paper-based alternatives.

The 3 second rule is a crucial aspect of the Speaking section in the PTE exam. As per the 3-second rule in the PTE exam, you must start speaking into the microphone within 3 seconds when it starts recording. Failure to do so will lead the microphone to stop recording and your question will be automatically skipped. The 3 seconds rule in PTE applies to tasks like:

Read Aloud
Repeat Sentence
Describe Image
Re-tell Lecture
Answer Short Question
Therefore, start speaking within 3 seconds when the icon of the microphone turns to "recording". If you remain silent for more than 3 seconds, the recorder stops recording.

Yes, you can go to Australia with a 6-band equivalent in PTE — but it depends on what you are applying for (student visa, work visa, or permanent residency) and what “6 bands” refers to.

If "6 Bands" here is referred to as an equivalent of an IELTS band score, then an overall IELTS score of 6.0 is roughly equal to a PTE Academic score of about 50–58.
