PTE Select Missing Word Practice Tips

Follow these tips to quickly spot clues and select the correct missing word with confidence.

Pro Tip
Listen for the Final Idea
01

Concentrate fully on the closing part of the audio. The missing word always completes the speaker’s final thought or conclusion.

Pro Tip
Predict the Ending First
02

Before viewing options, guess how the sentence should end. This makes it easier to spot the most logical choice.

Best Tip
Focus on Meaning Flow
03

Check how the ending word fits the overall message. The correct option must logically match the entire audio.

Expert’s Tip
Eliminate Illogical Options
04

Remove choices that feel grammatically correct but do not match the topic or direction of the audio.

Best Tip
Beware of Similar Words
05

Some options sound related but change the meaning slightly. Choose the word that best fits the context.

Expert’s Tip
Practice Active Listening Skills
06

Regular practice improves focus and helps you recognize concluding cues used in academic listening tasks.
