As the PTE requirement depends upon the purpose of taking the exam, there is no average PTE score as such.

The overall score in PTE Academic is a combination of the scores achieved in all the 4 individual skills, and not the average of the scores.

As per the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEF), the PTE score ranges as per proficiency levels are:

CEF Level

The CEF is used as a benchmark for reference to understand scores in any language qualification exam.
