    to all, may napansin lang po ako sa website nang IELTS yung grading system.

    yung Reading for General Migration pala talaga mataas...kelangan yung raw score of 35 above maabot or 34 atleast para makuha band 7.0

    any tips or learning techniques para sa reading, ginagawa ko yung mga mock up exams sa reading at so far hindi ko maintindihan kung maingay lang ba sa bahay, out of condition probably kulang ako sa tulog, or sadyang mahirap yung passage...

    out of 4 ace the ielts exams 2 dun yung doing ok ako...pero yung 2 din medyo mahirap

    sana po may makatulong...maraming salamat

    I haven't lost everything except my mind...

    if you are taking GT reading, prepare for it by practicing AC reading passages.
    the rest is the same, skimming, scanning, synonyms, tsaka try using roadmaps
    for the passages

    Hi guys! Done with ielts today. Nothing beats PRACTICE..lalo na sa listening,prfect score is possible talaga. Tapos sa reading,hanapin nyo muna kung san kayo magaling then tackle them with confidence. Saka na yung weakness pts nyo. For ex.sa case ko i hate the T/F/NG so talagang last ko na yun ginawa sa all 3 passages.

    Tapos sa writing what i did was read and eat books as in fast reading sa last 2 days before exam. It's stockpiling ng vocabulary..

    By the way hindi ako satisfied sa rview cntr ko kya 4x lang ako pumunta puro prctice listening pa tsk..thanks sa cmbrdge series @imeetr huge help talaga.. that's all thank you hehheh
    The waiting starts..

    Hi guys! Done with ielts today. Nothing beats PRACTICE..lalo na sa listening,prfect score is possible talaga. Tapos sa reading,hanapin nyo muna kung san kayo magaling then tackle them with confidence. Saka na yung weakness pts nyo. For ex.sa case ko i hate the T/F/NG so talagang last ko na yun ginawa sa all 3 passages.

    Tapos sa writing what i did was read and eat books as in fast reading sa last 2 days before exam. It's stockpiling ng vocabulary..

    By the way hindi ako satisfied sa rview cntr ko kya 4x lang ako pumunta puro prctice listening pa tsk..thanks sa cmbrdge series @imeetr huge help talaga.. that's all thank you hehheh
    The waiting starts..
    goodluck po sa inyo, sabay pala tayo nagexam madam nasa row 12 ako btw bc ako ulet nagparesched...agree kaso yung question #10 ko nagkamali ako umbrellas nailagay ko narealize ko lang paguwe ko na flowers pala yun...nadidistract kasi ako dun sa umuubo sa right side nung exam room hindi tinatakpan yung bibig nya.

    yung writing, nagpractice talaga ako paulet ulet kahit umay na napansin ko lang dumali yung pagsusulat, nasa taga correct nalang siguro kung ipapasa nya tayo

    about sa reading, para saken naramdaman ko talaga yung reading dumali lalo yung part na animals 1 month puros reading ako salamat sa mga tips dito, vinavary ko activities for 1 month reading listening writing minsan sabay sabay buong araw ganun, yung exam ngayon walang masyadong TFNG, ang meron YFNG pero tatlong questions lang.

    pinaka mas nagaalala ako ngayon is yung listening if ever kasi yun nga yung part na may Antony regarding organizations at types of walks medyo nalito pero the rest nadali ko lahat sana lang maminimize ko yung errors dun to 10 makakakuha ako 7 if ever. sana less than 10.

    anyway tip ko lang sa second takers mas maganda kung napaghandaan in 1 month, yung difference nung first na walang aral at yung second sobrang laki nang diperensya.: )

    if ever makapasa malalaman ko din haha..for now back to reality work mode

    I haven't lost everything except my mind...
