How to Choose the Right PTE Test Centre in Nepal?

Choosing the right PTE test centre in Nepal can make a real difference to your overall exam experience and comfort on test day. Here are some key tips to choose the right PTE exam centre in Nepal:

Proximity: When choosing a PTE test centre, students should first consider how close the exam venue is to their location. The test centre should be easily accessible from home, allowing you to arrive on time, relaxed, and well prepared on the test day.

Facilities: The test centre should have all the necessary facilities to conduct the exam smoothly. To understand this better, students can check reviews from previous test takers or speak to experts such as AECC counsellors for guidance.

Availability: Another important step is to check the availability of the test centre on your preferred date and time. Planning your exam early and booking the test centre in advance helps avoid last-minute issues.

Accommodation: Students travelling from a different city should plan their stay in advance, including an overnight stay if required. You can contact Pearson support for guidance or make your own accommodation arrangements in the city.

Test day expectations:

On the test day, students must follow all rules and regulations set by the PTE test centre. Pearson strictly enforces these rules to ensure a secure and fair testing environment at all centres. Here is what candidates can expect on the PTE test day:

  • Personal items such as bags, mobile phones, watches, and notes must be kept in the lockers provided.
  • A valid passport is mandatory for ID verification before the exam begins.
  • Biometric checks, such as a photograph or digital signature, may be conducted.
  • Only approved items are allowed inside the exam room.
  • Talking, using unauthorised materials, or leaving your seat without permission is not allowed.
  • Test centre staff monitor the exam, and rule violations may lead to test cancellation.

Choosing the right study abroad partner matters as much as selecting the right PTE test centre. With AECC experts, you get reliable counselling at every step of your study abroad planning.

What to Expect on Test Day at a PTE Exam Centre?
