    @filipinacpa since meron ka pa naman 40 days (more or less) i strongly recommend na mag-answer ka ng one module under exam condition everyday. Sample:

    Mon - listening (about 20-30 minutes lang to. kunwari actual exam. orasan mo sarili mo, makinig ka from speakers not from headphones. magprint out ka ng actual answer sheet meron niyan online and maupo ka as if nasa examination room. wag sa bed or wag nka slouch para masanay)
    Tue - reading (1hr orasan dn ang sarili)
    Wed - writing ( 1hr orasan ang sarili. ipa check ang ginawa sa friends or sa online teacher mo)
    Thu - speaking (15 minutes lang to. hanap ka ng questions online, ask your bf or any friend or fam member to help you. irecord ang sarili)
    Fri - kinig kinig lang like ng usual mo ginagawa
    Sat - practicin mo 4 na modules. halimbawa ung Cambridge sagutin mo yung buong module na yon under exam condition. This will take about 3hrs lang of your time after nun chill ka na ulit.

    para siyang nkakastress or hassle ung ganitong review strat pero mas nkakastress (1) mkakuha ng halos lahat 7 at may isang sumabit kasi hindi balanse ang pag-aaral mo (2) magretake ng exam (ulit nanaman) (3) magbayad nanaman ng halos 10k. keep that in mind sa tuwing tinatamad ka and i'm sure makukuha mo ang desired band score mo :)
    salamat din @wizz sa suggesstions mo...pwede ko din itong i-apply sa agrereview ko.

    mga kapatid paki check naman po etong ginawa ko..many thanks!

    Some people think that personal happiness is directly related to economic success. Others argue that happiness depends on completely different factors. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

    In this world, happiness is defined in so many ways. Many people believe that having monetary riches give them satisfaction in life. With a substantial amount of money, they get the luxury to purchase the things that others struggle to have. They could certainly construct a palatial house and travel within and outside the country.

    Moreover, other viewed that having sufficient resources do not need to have a regular job since affluent people have businesses of their own which create leverage for themselves to be able to establish the life they want.

    On the other hand, amidst all these worldly possessions, I believe that contentment relies on other factors. Happiness is found in the unity and love that bind family and clan members. Seeing family members going to church together and then sit down for a meal in an affordable restaurant build fulfillment to our lives.

    Good health is another factor that makes me happy. Having a stress free feeling regarding our wellbeing surpasses all the material riches and travels that we can ever imagine. Good physical condition contributes to a joyful life as being free from any ailments can make our life more relaxed. Without diseases to worry about, we can enjoy life to the fullest.

    In my experience, my family’s connection with a congregation influenced and taught us to be contented with what we have, live a simple life and will not struggle for material things, bring in so much joy and inner peace which material things could not provide.

    In conclusion, I believe that economic success does not automatically result to happiness, rather it depends on having a close knit family, good health and good relationship with our Creator. They do not have a price tag. And most importantly, they are free.

    @michelle_75

    Try to look into this website: http://ielts-simon.com/ielts-help-and-english-pr/ielts-writing-task-2/

    In my opinion, mas ok pag 4 paragraph essay ang gawin mo. Kasi sa tingin ko masyado kalat sa mga paragraphs yung mga ideas.

    Consider the following:

    1. Intro with your SHORT opinion
    2. Paragraph supporting economic success
    3. Paragraph for "completely different factors"
    4. summary - repeat your opinion with a little explaination...

    How to make a good paragraph? - look at "main paragraph methods" from the website above.

    Yung example na 'artist' essay has a good essay plan for a "Discuss both views" with opinion essay.

    @katiequintos: Yup! I think last June to August mejo konte nag submit sa EA. I think because everybody is waiting for the new SOL before sending out their applications.

    Mejo bumagal sya towards end of August eh... baka nag vacation ang mga assessors... hehehe

    @btarroja213 : hello, so you got your skill assessment result in 3 months from EA nga???

    @katiequintos: Yup! I think last June to August mejo konte nag submit sa EA. I think because everybody is waiting for the new SOL before sending out their applications.

    Mejo bumagal sya towards end of August eh... baka nag vacation ang mga assessors... hehehe
    Winner ka! Thanks sa info! Galing!

    @katiequintos: I just checked. July 04 ang ina-assess ng EA today. So that's a little less than 3 months lang... plus mga 2 weeks sa snail mail. So mabilis na nga din ngayon.

    tick..tock...tick...tock... Took my GT in Singapore last Saturday... waiting for October 04.... tagal ng 13 days... haiz...
    Checked your timeline...You got EA results that fast? 3 months? wow!
    By the way, have you read about this? Saw you lack 5 more points without IELTS. =)

    http://australiavisanews.net/2013/03/02/living-in-other-states-on-a-subclass-190-visa/
    @katiequintos, yes I heard about that from my officemate. i'm planning to apply for 190 if I don't get my 10 points come October 04... :-D
    OT: Makisingit na rin po. Is it possible to apply for a 190 Visa, e.g. ACT, but I will land in WA? Or I need to go first dun sa sponsoring state before I can move to another state?

    Thanks a lot!

    according sa link pde. =)
