Score the band you need for your UK visa with proven strategies, AI-backed practice, and expert coaching.
PTE Academic UKVI is a Secure English Language Test (SELT) approved by the UK Home Office. It is the official, computer-based English proficiency exam for UK student visas, skilled worker visas, family visas, and indefinite leave to remain (ILR).
Unlike the standard PTE Academic, the UKVI version includes a Unique Reference Number (URN) — mandatory for your UK visa application. Without it, your results are not valid for visa purposes.
The exam covers 20 question types across Speaking & Writing, Reading and Listening. Dr Ahmed's coaching covers every question type in depth.
Tests verbal and written communication in English — vocabulary, grammar and clarity.
Assesses comprehension of academic texts and your ability to locate information quickly.
Measures your understanding of spoken English through lectures, conversations and presentations.
86% AI-powered Versant scoring. Results within 48 hours. URN included for UK visa applications.
Every template, strategy and script is tested against Pearson's real AI scoring engine — not generic English lessons. Students report immediate band improvements, often in a single session.
The required PTE UKVI score depends on your visa type and level of study. Use this guide to set your target — then let Dr Ahmed help you reach it.
