| Focus | Unguided | PrepMyself |
|---|---|---|
| 01Question types | Random PDFs with a static answer key | The on-screen task, timed, for the formats we cover |
| 02Speaking audio | You listen to yourself, with no scoring notes | Playback, a transcript, fluency and pronunciation notes |
| 03Writing | Spellcheck that ignores the task | Grammar, vocabulary range, and whether the structure holds |
| 04The clock | A phone stopwatch | Section timers that follow PTE's rules |
| 05What you're missing | A pile of notes, if you kept any | Which question types you keep missing |
