Por qué es importante planificar la puntuación
Points-tested migration rewards English beyond the minimum: applicants who stop at Competent English leave 10–20 SkillSelect points on the table—often the difference between an invitation and months of waiting. Per-skill minimums matter as much as overall scores; one section below the Competent floor fails the entire English criterion even when your average looks fine.

What PTE Academic score do I need for Skilled migration?

How many points does better English add on SkillSelect?
Competent English is the baseline for many skilled visas. Proficient English adds 10 points; Superior English adds 20 points. At competitive invitation rounds, those bonus points often determine who receives an invitation to apply.
Should I aim for Competent or Proficient English?
If your total SkillSelect score is near recent invitation cut-offs for your occupation, Proficient or Superior English is often worth a retake. If you are well above cut-offs on age, experience, and qualifications, Competent may suffice—model your points before deciding.
