    @imeetr bakit ka po magreretake? and OBS daw po is insignificant. OET is the minimum score requirement. like kahit ang OBS is 9, but may score ka sa isa na 7, then you can only claim 10 points..

    @mhej @Umbenieyon I need to get OBS 7.5 with minimum of 7 in each sub-test, for professional registration po kasi ako, kailangan ko muna pumasa sa IELTS not for the EOI but for the qualifying exam that is a requirement for pharmacist registration.

    @SolemateD, I wrote a conclusion for writing task 1. I also wrote one sentence of overall trend right after my introduction. Although I followed ielts-simon format for task 2, I obeyed my review center in task 1.

    @imeetr, Born uli. Sayang. Konting adjust na lang. Kaya iyan.

    @imeetr, focus ka in improving your Lis and Rea. Napakalaki ng room for improvement dyan. Continue mo lang W at S mo. Unlike me na sablay dati dyan dahil sa 6.5, napaka minimal ng improvement kahit sobrang practice na.
