PTE for Medicine & Health Sciences in Australia from Cuba: the score you need

To study Medicine & Health Sciences in Australia from Cuba, your PTE Academic score is one of the few parts of this fully in your control. Here's what you need, the route from Cuba, and where you can study.

The PTE score you need for Australia

The Australian government accepts PTE Academic for student and skilled visas. For skilled migration (subclasses 189/190/491) PTE Academic sets the English levels that earn points: Competent English (Listening 47, Reading 48, Writing 51, Speaking 54) meets eligibility but scores 0 points; Proficient English (65 in each component) earns 10 points; Superior English (Listening 58, Reading 59, Writing 69, Speaking 76, for tests on or after 7 August 2025) earns 20 points.

PTE Academic is accepted by around 100% of Australian universities and for Australian student and skilled-migration visas. Worldwide, PTE Academic is accepted by over 3,000 institutions across nearly 70 countries. Confirm the exact score your programme needs on its official admissions page.

Study, work and PR each set their own bar (study is usually the lowest, PR the highest). These figures change and are component-specific — confirm the live number on the Department of Home Affairs before you rely on it. Source: the Department of Home Affairs.
