If you are planning to appear for the Pearson Test of English or Scoring in PTE, you must know about the interrelation of scores among the four sections.

Scoring in PTE is a 3 hours examination that contains 4 different sections, like Speaking & Writing, Reading, and Listening. These four sections have 20 sub-tasks, also known as task types. The sections of PTE are interrelated to each other in terms of scores. These interrelations of scores for the Reading and Listening section are discussed below table:

	MCQ, CHOOSE MULTIPLE ANSWER	MCQ, Multiple answers also contribute to the respective section only. The scores earned in this task type will help to boost the Reading scores.

	READING: FILL IN THE BLANKS	The Reading fill-in-the-blanks, also known as Drag & Drop fill-in-the-blanks, helps the candidate to get scores for the respective section. Whatever the candidate will be able to score in this task type, will remain in the Reading Section only.
