    L-8.5,R-8,W-6.5,S-7.5=TBS 7.5. Tanong lang po, ipapasa ko na ba tong result ko sa EA for assessment o iparemark ko muna? O pede bang ipasa ko na tong result for EA assessment then iparemark ko for visa purpose naman? pede po ba yon? waaahh di na ako aabot sa July 1 nito. huhuhu!
    Pasa mo na muna yang IELTS result mo sa EA. Tatanggapin nman nila yan eh. Saka ka na lang magparemark after. Sayang kasi ang oras. Yung nangyari naman sakin dati naglapse na yung IELTS ko na pinasa sa kanila with a grade of 6 on all subtests. Basta valid naman upon submission sa kanila e ok lang yun. Saka na lang ako nag retake ng IELTS. sa kasamaang palad e meron din akong 6.5 sa writing subtest yun lang ang sablay ko. Nag try din ako magparemark ng writing at speaking ko sa BC pero sawi pa rin.hehe. Kaya eto 475 visa ang bagsak ko ok na SS ko sa WA baka maglodge na ko this March. pera na lang ang kulang.hehe

    Yun pala si @diwata ang boss ni @Bryann sa trabaho noh? Yari na!

    I would take k_mavs' advice if pasok na sa EA assessment ang IELTS 6....yung iba kasi tulad ng sa humahawak sa mga accountants at nurses, kelangan all IELTS 7, at kung magpapasa ka ng hindi, irereject lang nila, sayang lang yung binayad kung mangyayari yun :(

    Hay... kalungkot. Sa Writing pa sumabit. Hindi ko expected. Inaasahan ko pa nga sa Speaking ako sasablay pero mataas pa yun score ko dun. Badtrip naman yun writing. Pa-remark naman mga 7.2k php, tapos tagal ng processing. Ayaw ko naman mag IELTS ulit. Sayang pera badtrip. Bukas punta na lang siguro BC, pa-remark. No choice eh. Kailangan ituloy ang nasimulan.

    Oo nga buti ka pa, yun writing and speaking maayos. Lungkot ako sa writing ko talaga. Bukas punta na lang ako BC, pa-remark ko W & S. Baka sakali tumaas. Gusto ko nga sana sabayan ng isa pa IELTS exam ulit (pwede ba yun? exam while waiting sa remark)? Kaso magastos. Haha.

    since ok naman ang IELTS ko, may k na ko mag share ng tips. hehe.. sa writing, ok talaga ung writefix.com at sa speaking, need nyo talaga kausapin ang sarili nyo kahit minsan eh parang nakakaloka. talk about any topic at wag bilisan magsalita. sa listening and reading naman eh ok na ok ang cambridge reviewer. mga 1 to 2 months na gabi gabi magpractice eh ok na un.

    eto nga pala ung question sa akin, para pede nyo pag praktisan.
    speaking - part 1
    what is your job?
    where are you from?
    do you spend time with children?
    what did you do when you were younger during your free time?
    what do kids do today in their free time?

    part 2
    what would you buy if you have the money?

    part 3
    what do we throw now that people in the past would usually repair?
    what is the impact of this on the environment?

    Writing:
    part 1
    You and an elderly friend who had difficulty in walking visited a museum and you experienced problem. Write a letter to the museum explaining your difficulty, the details of your visit and suggest ways to improve.

    part 2
    Strict teachers help students learn. But others believe that teachers should be friendly. Discuss both views and give your opinion.

    Wow galing naman. Topic is yun posted ni @diwata. About sa museum visit and teachers. Try ko din pa-remark, and exam at the same time. Para at least may options. Mahirap na kasi baka pagdating nun remarked results sa April, and wala pagbabago panic mode na mag-IELTS kasi lapit na mag-July. Sayang lang money kasi nadoble gastos ng exam, I'll just think of this as an investment.

    Well based on the info I gathered, hindi bababa ang scores mo sa remark.. possible lang na mag-stay the same, or tumaas. Usually .5 to 1 point tinataas daw. Umaasa ako sa remark maging 8 sana yun writing. Haha. Pa-remark ko na din yun speaking. Gastos talaga. Hihi.

    By the time na dumating yun remarked results, nasa akin na yun results siguro nun Take #2 ko. Haha. Kasi plan ko sa Feb 18 na, or Mar 10 magtake eh. Para meron na nakabackup. If makuha ko results nitong Take #2 and okay naman, apply na ako state sponsorship ng NSW. Pa-remark ko W & S. Baka sakali tumaas pa. Problema kasi if dumating yun remarking results, tapos mababa pa din. Parang magmamadali na ako magtake IELTS nun.

    @Bryann Medyo mataas naman yung mga grades mo sa ibang subtests.kaya safe na siguro if you can apply for a remark baka mahatak yung grades mo. :)

    Ah tingin mo po? Yup magpa-remark po ako. But iniisip ko kasi, what if hindi umangat yun writing. IELTS ulit sa April. Hmmm.. gusto ko kasi humabol sa State Sponsorship ng NSW. So if April makuha ko un remarked results, tapos apply agad State Sponsorhip, around May magkaka result.. tapos latest June lodge visa. Sobrang last minute. Hehe. As compared sa remark ako as backup. Tapos take #2 this month, para March if pasado yun take 2, makapag apply na agad State Sponsorship ng NSW. Good plan kaya ito? :D

    @Bryann, I am assuming you are planning to take visa 175 which is points-tested....so the first question before you take another exam is if you will reach 65 points even if you get 0 in the English Proficiency...

    If the answer is yes, then wala problema...wag ka na magretake, nakatipid ka pa.
    Magiging mahalaga lang naman yung extra points sa IELTS kung (1) di ka umabot sa 65 at (2) tingin mo pagkatapos ng July 1 mo pa maipapasa yung application mo.

    Hi sir Loki. Hindi po aabot eh. Actually sakto lang po yun points ko, sa 65pts. With 10pts sa IELTS. Bonus na lang if maka-20pts which gives me a total of 75pts. Another option I'm considering is if I will take the NSW State Sponsorship application. Para mas mabilis magka-CO. Pero I've decided hintayin ko na lang yun result ng remarking. By 1st or 2nd week ng April dadating yun if bukas ko i-file sa BC. Then from there, if umangat yun writing ko, apply ako for NSW State sponsorship. IF minalas at hindi tumaas yun score ko sa writing.. no choice, IELTS ulit. Ito kasi scoring ko,

    Age - 30pts
    Qualification - 10pts
    Work Experience - 10pts
    Australian Study Requirement - 5pts
    IELTS - 10pts
    ------------------
    65pts total

    @katlin924 Thanks, problem kase sa ken is required talaga ng assessing authority na 7 ang IELTS for all bands, so di pedeng mag proceed till ma-clear ko ang IELTS...wait ko pa result ng remarking ko, this week siguro lalabas na result, sana talaga tumaas ang score ko kahit .5 lng....

    @LokiJr- nagparemark na ko sa first writing test ko and expecting the result this week, sana maging positive ang result, otherwise take na naman ako ng IELTS for the third time...magconcentrate na talaga ako sa writing kase yun talaga weakness ko...

    thanks guys, updateko kayo pag nareceive ko na remarking result ko...

    If may accountants din dito, pakishare naman ng experience nyo sa IELTS, maybe you've been on the same situation before...
