di ako nagreview so ang score ko:
Listening: 9, Reading: 8.5, Writing: 7, Speaking: 6.5
so madali sya actually medyo tumagalid lang ako sa interview kasi halos 5 years nako di nagpapractice mainterview.
Walang kwenta ang score kasi ang points required ay 7 sa lahat ng category para magkaroon ng 10points sa skillselect.
PTE Academic daw mas madali sa speaking kasi hindi face to face ang interview tama ba?

For other’s reference - main difference is - IELTS is evaluated and scored by a human rater, and PTE naman is by a computer program.
Let me give you one perspective for now. On Speaking…
Go for IELTS if tingin mong..
• Mas comfortable ka makipagusap sa tao
• Kasi if okay ung speaking skills mo, even you stutter sometimes, mas forgiving ang tao on this situation. And computer does not.
• Especially if you are a conversationalist - na madali sayo pagusapan yung buhay mo, general knowledge, or anything under the sun
On the otherhand, gofor PTE-A if tingin mong..
• You have a clear diction/ speak clearly (not necessarily with accent)
• You know what words to stress when reading or delivering a lecture
• Kung tingin mo, na kapag nagkkwento ka - minsan napagbabaliktad mo ung order of events or you’re trouble delivering your thoughts with coherence, then better ung PTE-A sayo. Unlike humans, I think mas forgiving naman ang computer kapag napagbali-baligtad mo ung sentences mo. Sentences ha, not particularly the words.
Hope this helps

I had asked BC for a remark and no change. Now I planning to enrol for a IELTS writing prep course and will retake mine at March 2019. Putting my hope in God that he will favor me.
