The Health Resources & Services Administration (HRSA) added PTE Academic to its list in 2022.
A growing number of State Boards of Nursing in the USA now accept PTE Academic test scores, including Alabama, Arizona, Arkansas, Colorado, Idaho, Kentucky, Louisiana, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Montana, Nevada, New Hampshire, North Dakota, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Texas, Washington and Wyoming.
Generally, nurses need an overall score of 55 with no score below 50 in any of the individual skills. However, there may be variances from state to state so it’s important to check.
