overall 79, with 78/71/77/86 in L/R/S/W.
ES: 89/75/56/90/90/81 in G/O/P/S/V/W
have to retake kasi i need 79+ sana for bigger chance sa 189.
ginamit ko ung mga advice and templates nyo for describe image and retell lecture pero may times na kinakapos na ko sa oras pag conclusion na.
i think sabit din ako sa read aloud at repeat sentence. may napanood ako sa youtube na kahit mababa ung pronounciation, mataas pa rin ung speaking nya. sa OF po ba ko magfocus?
any tips po how to improve? medyo masakit din kasi sa bulsa pag magretake. :(
salamat po sa mga tips at sa walang sawang suporta sa tulad naming hindi maachieve ang desired score. thank you po talaga.
don't panic :)
Listening
- repeat sentence, carefully picture out the words, so you can easily remember them, if the sentence is too loooooooooooooong mumur if possible, copy the speaker's tone as well
Writing
- write essay, use the template mentioned in this forum, NEVER copy statement and put it in the essay word per word :D , rephrase!
Speaking
- use the template
Good luck!

yup masakit talaga yung mga retake :) naka 3 ako na retake :(
describe image and retell lecture
- focus ka lang sa main points or content ng image like for images (3 times lumabas yung images) color, size, similarities, differences, then for graphs, highest/lowest, x axis/ y axis, highest/lowest figure
Lastly, practice!
Good luck po!

sa read aloud po ba kelangan mabilis? feeling ko kasi ok ung read aloud ko. :(
normal pace lang ako nung exam pero ang baba na ng pronounciation ko. what more pag binilisan ko pa. :(
Nag take ako ng PTE-A kahapon sa Trident, bali 2nd take ko na ito, last year yung 1st take..
1st take: S: 74 / W: 74 / R: 70 / L: 73
2nd take: S: 90 / W: 77 / R: 81 / L: 86
sobrang nakakadown na 2 points nalang ang kulang. yung feeling na nag lalaan ka naman talaga ng time at efforts para mag aral kasabay pa ng trabaho mo. nag JRooz pa ako this time kaso kinulang padin :') plan ko ulit mag re-take next week. pahingi nman ako ng tips nyo sa Writing. last year, ang ginamit ko ay yung structure ni Jay (E2PTE) sa essay, this year naman yung template ni Steven Fernandez (yung about television) tapos hinaluan ko ng konteng natutunan ko sa Jrooz. meron na ba dito nakagamit ng template na to and nakakuha ng 79+ sa Writing?
Worth it ba mag pa re-score? may nakapag try na po ba?
Thanks in advace guys! God bless everyone :)

Here are the methods na ginamit ko from E2L:
Sa descibe image, Introduction - about 3 main points - Conclusion, should be enough.
Sa retell lecture nilimit ko lang sa 5 points:
1. The speaker was discussing (topic)
2. Firstly, He/She talked about (key idea 1)
3. He/She mentioned (key idea 2)
4. He/She highlighted (key idea 3)
5. Finally, He/She suggested that (conclusion)
first and last points yung pinaka importante, points 2-3, pwede mo ireplace ng other verbs
During mock test and actual exam, may times na I stopped at 35-36 seconds na, but I made sure na ok yung OF, still got 90 both times so i guess effective naman :)

New SimplyStall Mobile App!
I'm very happy to announce PinoyAu Forum's new app called "SimplyStall" . It's a new Gumtree like service for Pinoys in Australia but in a way better!
So if you have any items just collecting dust? Why not convert it to cash?
If you are selling new items or products or wish to give an item away for free then this might be a good avenue for you.
This project is a new initiative to unify and have a common portal for Pinoys in Australia to sell and share stuffs.
It's now available on Google Play and Apple App Store.
Please do try it out. I'd appreciate if you can help me spread the good news and start selling your old or new stuffs.
