Pearson Test of English + NAATI CCL is an Unbeatable Combination for Immigration to Australia.
First of all, it's important to understand why some students choose to take both tests.
For immigration purposes, one test is enough. Essentially, either IELTS or PTE can confirm your language level. However, NAATI CCL has nothing to do with confirming language proficiency. It's a unique, specialized exam available only in Australia, and it adds +5 points to your score in the point-based system, thereby increasing your chances of obtaining a visa.
This is a translation exam (Russian/Ukrainian/Hindi/Polish/Persian/Turkish etc. to English and vice versa). If you can translate well — which is confirmed by passing the exam — it means you can help other members of your community in various everyday situations. This makes you a more attractive candidate for immigration.
Preparing for NAATI is not very difficult. In our school, the course lasts a fixed period of 2 months, and 95% of our students have passed successfully.
Why PTE is a Great Choice for Australia
As for PTE, how does it compare favorably to other options (e.g., IELTS)?
It's a clear, computerized test with unique types of tasks. What makes this format special is that all 20 tasks in the test are always repeated: the topics change, but the "inner workings" remain the same. This allows for straightforward memorization of many things, preparing templates in advance, and then mindlessly inserting words during the test.
Sounds like cheating?
It is. PTE does not require you to be fluent in the language, even in the Speaking section. It’s more like a mathematical test, where you can memorize all the formulas, practice with similar tasks, and achieve maximum scores.
The only challenge is that the test is academic, so the topics will be from various scientific fields. Before starting preparation, students should already be at an Intermediate level, and then there won’t be any problems.
In comparison to IELTS, where even Intermediate students, C1 speakers, and even native speakers often fail, PTE guarantees candidates with strong English very high or even maximum scores.
When you combine PTE with NAATI CCL, immigrating to Australia becomes a much easier task.
