Master English Australia · Model reviewed 2 October 2026
Pearson does not convert task percentages directly into points out of 90. Its scoring considers task performance, difficulty and other factors. This simplified Master English model helps organise practice; it cannot tell you whether you will achieve a required test score.
The published rounded weights add to 101% for Listening, Reading and Speaking, and 100% for Writing. We preserve those figures and divide each weight by its skill total so the practice model totals exactly 90 points.
Read the calculation and limitations ↓Use a recent, representative set of practice attempts. Enter the average awarded score—not a target score. Leave unpractised tasks blank. A genuine zero is valid. Use the same scale for all entries.
A third-party /90 practice score is treated only as a proportion for this study index. It is not converted into an official Pearson score.

Weighted practice index—not a Pearson scoreFor each task and skill: (your average ÷ input maximum) × (published task weight ÷ sum of that skill’s weights) × 90. Add the contributions for that skill.
Example: Describe Image has a published Speaking weight of 31%. With an 80% practice average, its contribution here is 0.80 × 31 ÷ 101 × 90 = 22.10 practice points. Its maximum in this model is 27.62 points—not a claim about marks available in the real test.
Reference weights: Pearson’s question weighting report, Table 1. For actual assessment, see Pearson’s scoring guidance. Pearson may move or replace its documents; this model uses the rounded figures displayed in our format and scoring guide.
No. It is a weighted practice index, not Pearson’s scoring algorithm. Use it to organise study and discuss weaknesses with your teacher, not to decide you have met a visa or university requirement.
Summarize Group Discussion has the largest published average contribution to Listening: 20%. This is an average task-type weighting, not guaranteed points or a prediction of your result.
Summarize Group Discussion (20%), Repeat Sentence (17%), Retell Lecture (13%); Write from Dictation also contributes 13%, tied with Retell Lecture. Use these published average weights alongside your weaknesses to allocate practice time. Prepare for every task.
Select Missing Word: 1%. These are the smallest positive average contributions to Listening, not tasks to skip. Tasks with no contribution to this skill may still affect another skill.
Fill in the Blanks (Dropdown) has the largest published average contribution to Reading: 25%. This is an average task-type weighting, not guaranteed points or a prediction of your result.
Fill in the Blanks (Dropdown) (25%), Summarize Written Text (23%), Fill in the Blanks (Drag and Drop) (20%). Use these published average weights alongside your weaknesses to allocate practice time. Prepare for every task.
Multiple Choice, Single Answer (Reading section) and Highlight Correct Summary: 3% each. These are the smallest positive average contributions to Reading, not tasks to skip. Tasks with no contribution to this skill may still affect another skill.
Describe Image has the largest published average contribution to Speaking: 31%. This is an average task-type weighting, not guaranteed points or a prediction of your result.
Describe Image (31%), Summarize Group Discussion (19%), Repeat Sentence (16%). Use these published average weights alongside your weaknesses to allocate practice time. Prepare for every task.
Read Aloud: 9%. These are the smallest positive average contributions to Speaking, not tasks to skip. Tasks with no contribution to this skill may still affect another skill.
Write Essay has the largest published average contribution to Writing: 31%. This is an average task-type weighting, not guaranteed points or a prediction of your result.
Write Essay (31%), Summarize Written Text (28%), Write from Dictation (23%). Use these published average weights alongside your weaknesses to allocate practice time. Prepare for every task.
Summarize Spoken Text: 18%. These are the smallest positive average contributions to Writing, not tasks to skip. Tasks with no contribution to this skill may still affect another skill.
