The PTE Academic English test is accepted by thousands of institutions worldwide, including universities across the English-speaking world and the Australian, UK, and New Zealand governments.
For healthcare professionals, PTE Academic is recognised by regulatory bodies, including in the US, Australia, and New Zealand, who require a specific set of scores to show that your English is good enough to practice safely. To be a doctor or a nurse in Australia for example, you need to score a at least 65 from a maximum of 90 points in each of the four skills.
However, to get the score you need is not easy. You need make sure your English language knowledge and skills are at the right level, learn critical exam techniques, and know what to expect on the day.
