PTE exam dates are available throughout the year, making it flexible for students to align with their university application deadlines. However, you need to note that PTE is available to be taken only at test centers, and the dates vary greatly from one center to another. For example, the Pearson Professional Centers in all cities offer a very small number of dates (3-4 every month), while the other centers, like the Global Opportunities in New Delhi, or K L University in Vijayawada, offer the exam almost every day.

While booking a PTE test, you will also have to select a time slot. The slots also differ from one test center to another. The earliest time slot is 8 AM IST, and the latest is 5 PM IST. You can book anytime you want, and there is no late registration fee. But you are advised to book at least 2-3 months in advance. This is especially crucial for students going to study abroad, as test centers start filling up quickly as university application deadlines approach.

In this article, we will cover the complete list of the upcoming PTE test dates for different Indian cities, the month-wise exam schedule, and how to book.
