There are differences in opinions about the relative difficulties between IELTS, PTE and other tests. Some people suggests PTE is easier to score, some other says they are all the same.
I think it is a good topic for debate, also would help people who are trying to score some points against their English proficiency level.
I also have created a poll, feel free to cast your vote. The poll is open only for the members, but any non-member is welcome to join the discussion.
Below is the comparison table of different standards, for your reference.
