With the new and improved version of the PTE pattern, there is curiosity among students about what to look for in the coming PTE exam and how to ace it. In this blog, I will discuss the new and improved version of PTE along with classes in Gurgaon.

So, to conclude Gurgaon is now the hub of people who want to go abroad either to pursue higher studies or look for a new career option or career growth. Since Gurgaon has a lot of schools and corporates there are a lot of people who want to move abroad. So as it is said, necessity is the mother of invention. So with the rising demand, the PTE coaching centers have also flourished to cater to this demand. Like, we at A.I.B.E send many students abroad every year.
