IELTS Ready vs Official PTE Academic AI Practice

IELTS Ready is a web-based preparation package from the British Council for IELTS Academic, General Training and UKVI. Its free package is available indefinitely after registration and includes 25-minute and 50-minute mock tests, two full mock tests, short Speaking and Listening courses, and live expert webinars. Mock tests provide estimated scores, including estimates across all four skills. IELTS Ready Premium is free when you book an IELTS test with the British Council; access runs from registration until seven days after the test date. Premium includes 40 AI feedback upgrades, scores for Reading, Listening, Writing and Speaking, and short and full courses covering all four skills. It also adds a personalised study guide, expert support and webinars available live or on demand. The service is provided by the British Council, a registered charity in England and Wales and Scotland. The site may share an encrypted identifier with advertising and analytics partners.

Official PTE Academic AI Practice is a web-based preparation product for people studying for the PTE Academic exam. It provides practice questions, mock tests, AI scoring and feedback, and a dashboard showing scores by skill and progress across sessions. Questions written by the PTE test development team cover all four skills. Free access includes two diagnostic tests, sample Reading and Listening questions, and sample AI scoring and feedback. Paid access adds 15 full-length mock tests, 20 sectional tests, and more than 1,000 official practice questions. AI scoring estimates results and provides trait-level insights aligned with official PTE scoring traits; an AI Tutor can discuss performance and guide what to practice next. Questions can be repeated during access, but each mock and sectional test allows only one attempt. Paid plans are one-time payments: 29.99 USD for 7 days, 59.99 USD for 1 month, or 89.99 USD for 3 months. Pearson says access ending does not trigger an automatic charge.
