Can anyone please share their experience with IDP regarding IELTS remarking? Id like to know kung malaki ba chance ng changes if ever.

    may form sila na ibibigay sayo. fill up mo sya ng details like bank account number etc at signature mo. tapos either mail mo sa kanila yung filled up document o scan mo at email. saken email so nagreply sila to acknowledge na natanggap nila ang email ko. Good luck sa yo. ok nman ang remarking. sabi nila basta Speaking and Writing mas malaki chance . Nagpa remark ako sa writing ko from 6.5 naging 7.0 din.

    Haha natawa ko dito.. I remember my examiner in BC, she's an old Pinay and she never smiled at me.. Minsan nagsmile din pero obviously na pilit.. I got 7.5 even i'm sure that I failed to answer her questions properly on the last part. Right after that, I really thought that I'm going to fail on my speaking. Haha lesson learned: don't judge the book by its cover. haha

    @cgm .. there are success stories na after remarking .. na reach nila yung desired score.. however, ikaw lang talaga ang makakapag assess ng chance mo.. if you think na enough naman yung sagot mo to have a score of 7.. then try mo ipa remark..

    Goodluck... ;)

    ^^ I agree. May gut feel ka naman kahit paano after the exam on how you performed lalo na sa writing. So if money is not issue for you at feel mo tlaga, then go for it.

    hi guys,

    dumating na result ng remarking ko today. thank god successful ung remark ko for speaking. From 6.5 to 7 na and narefund ko ung money ko. ^_^

    So, advice ko lang, if you really think na deserve nyo ung remark go ahead and file it. Mahirap kasi pinoy ang nagchecheck unlike pag niremark pinapadala pa sa oz.

    Hello po, in case po na nagamit mo na ang 1st IELTS result sa skills assessment, state sponsorship, & skill select, PERO iyong IELTS remarking mo is mas mababa kaysa 1st results. So hindi po ito maka-affect as long as hindi mo naman ibigay sa kanila ang results ng 2nd take mo?
    oN the other hand, if mas mataas ang 2nd IELTS results mo (let's say at least 7 all), pero invited ka na for visa 190 & nakapaglodge na ng visa, mabago mo pa ba? Para instead of 190, mag-189 ka na?

    Assessed Occupation: Industrial Engineer (IE 233511)
    Achieved Goal: Australia PR (Permanent Resident). Thanks God!

    Either no change or higher mark lang ang pwedeng makuha sa remarking.

    You will need to withdraw your 190 application and lodge a 189 application, but you won't be refunded with the 190 visa application fee. Information of withdrawal and refund can be found here: http://www.immi.gov.au/skilled/general-skilled-migration/withdrawing-visa-application.htm

    If you retake IELTS but your scores are lower than the 1st results, can you just disregard the 2nd results & use your 1st results as you proceed with your application (skills assessment, EOI, etc)?
