This affects thousands of innocent students lives. If you can apply some sanctions that directly apply to the stupid government, not some poor students.

I have invested a great deal of time, money, and effort in preparing for the PTE exam. Like many other Iranian students and professionals, I have worked hard to improve my English and build a better future for myself. For us, the PTE is not simply an English test. It represents months or even years of preparation, financial investment, personal sacrifices, and most importantly, hope for a better future.

I signed this petition because depriving Iranian students and professionals—who are hardworking, educated, and ambitious—of taking Pearson exams is unjust. These assessments are critical for their academic futures, migration plans, and career progression. Everyone deserves a fair chance to pursue their dreams.

PTE is an important English proficiency test for many Iranian students, professionals, and immigrants. We ask Pearson to restore access to PTE exams for Iranian candidates and give them an equal opportunity to pursue education, work, and immigration opportunities. This exam is our only hope of leaving Iran.

As an Iranian resident in Denmark and a former PTE candidate, I may still be able to access the PTE exam myself. However, I am signing this petition in support of candidates whose primary residence is in Iran.

I respectfully ask Pearson and the relevant U.S. authorities to explore a legally permissible solution that allows Iranian residents to take

I signed this petition because I believe it is deeply unfair that Iranian people, cultured, educated, and highly capable individuals, are being prevented from taking Pearson examinations that are essential for their education, professional careers, migration, and broader academic and professional development.

I would like to formally complain about Pearson’s discriminatory restriction preventing Iranian citizens residing in Iran from taking the PTE Academic test using their Iranian passports.

This is deeply unfair to Iranian test takers. Many of us have spent months, sometimes years, preparing for the PTE, investing significant amounts of money in courses, study materials, and exam fees, only to be told that we can no longer take the test because of our nationality. We have studied, prepared, paid, and worked hard just like everyone else. Our nationality should not determine whether we are allowed to demonstrate our English proficiency. If there are legitimate security concerns, th
