People of Iran differ from their government. We are seeking for a better life. Please remove the unfair restrictions against Iranian test takers and restore our access to Pearson exams. We deserve the same opportunity as other test takers around the world to take our exams.

Because of the difficult conditions in Iran, we have no choice but to immigrate. To do so, we need to take the PTE exam and obtain a language score. However, we've recently found out that this exam is not being offered to Iranian test takers. We have spent a long time working toward this goal, and I would like to ask the Pearson Institute to reconsider their decision and allow Iranians to participate in the PTE exam. We are in desperate need of being able to take the PTE test. Thank you, Pear

Education is just the most basic human rights, not the proviledge!

This is not fair to ordinary Iranian people living in Iran. We are not politicians; we are ordinary people trying to build a better future for ourselves and our families through education and migration. We should not lose our opportunities because of political circumstances beyond our control. Please reconsider this decision and allow Iranian people in Iran to take the PTE exam. We simply ask for a fair chance to build a better life.

We respectfully ask Pearson to reconsider this decision and provide Iranian candidates with a fair and accessible opportunity to take the PTE exam. We hope our situation and the significant impact of this decision on our careers and futures will be taken into consideration.

Dear Pearson PTE Team, I am writing to respectfully request your urgent consideration regarding the recently announced suspension of PTE exam services for candidates residing in Iran, effective September 8, 2026.
