Bring passport size photo, colored, with face straight and lips closed. Pencils and eraser. (based from BC website)
san po ba mas maganda kumuha sa BC or IDP? is there any difference ba? ang anong exam po ba ang kailangan na itake academic or general?

@rpspanilo - dont stress yourself too much on word counts basta practice lang ng practice on writing and make sure your words are coherent and they adhere to the topic being asked...

I would like to know the pointing system in Writing category.
For both letter and essay type, how are the words counted? Like for example:
1. car racing - (two words/ 1 word?) 2. determinants/preposition counted? - (eg: the, at, to, of, as,and ) 3. his/her - (is this two word/ 1 word?) 4. Pronouns are counted?
I would appreciate any kind of additional information.
Thank you.
1. Yes 2 words 2. I bought the practice material from cambridge nung tiningnan ko kasama sa count nila yan, otherwise, kulang yung words sa mga sample specially dun sa mga 'ideal' sample. 3. 1 kung ang context eh for example "it depends on his/her ability". 4. Yes
Ang kagandahan dun sa cambridge material, they'll show you samples kung ano itsura ng say writing na ang score eh 6.5, 7.0, 8.0 and 'ideal' response. Yung una kong score, 7.0 sa writing, confident ako sa writing and I thought at least kaparehas ko yung sample sa book na ang score eh 8.0. I applied for remarking and eventually was given an 8.0 sa writing (balik pa S$185 ko hehe).
Ang technique na ginawa ko, kada paragraph na matapos ko, bibilangin ko. Then gawa ako small mark for my count. Of course, sinosobrahan ko. Burahin ko na lang mga mark ko later. Btw, hindi lang number of words ang basihan ng pointing system ha.

bkt po sa BC website online registration yung writing and speaking lang ang may nakalagay na date? kasabay lang ba dun yung listening and reading?
Listening, Reading and Writing will be done on one sitting...
Ang Speaking naman will be done separately; depende sa schedule mo, it can be either in the afternoon immediately after your LRW exams or it can be on a separate date.

There should not be too much difference I suppose except for the Listening and Speaking part where the voice you will hear is either Australian (IDP) or British (BC) accent...

@ LittleBoyBlue , psychoboy, LokiJr , thanks for the advice.
It is also recommended to use variety of vocabularies, avoiding repetition of words, and check the spelling, to name a few.
Big help din ang Cambridge resources as previously mentioned. Most importantly, yung mga samples taken from various Writings will give an idea of a good score.
nakita ko sa bc and idp yung test sched puro ba talaga saturday? isa lang ang hindi saturday kaso nov 8 parang ang tagal kasi kung sa november pa ko magtake ng exam bka sa dec or jan pa ko maka submit ng eoi. pwede kaya magrequest ng weekdays on october?

nakita ko sa bc and idp yung test sched puro ba talaga saturday? isa lang ang hindi saturday kaso nov 8 parang ang tagal kasi kung sa november pa ko magtake ng exam bka sa dec or jan pa ko maka submit ng eoi. pwede kaya magrequest ng weekdays on october?
i don't think you can request a special test date just for you. dahil sabay sabay po ang exam... unless may open na slot sa particular date, dun ka lang makakapag-palit ng earlier date na gusto mo..
you can try... contact them kung pwede nga.. or kung may available slots pa for earlier dates...

I would like to know the pointing system in Writing category.
For both letter and essay type, how are the words counted? Like for example:
1. car racing - (two words/ 1 word?)
2. determinants/preposition counted? - (eg: the, at, to, of, as,and )
3. his/her - (is this two word/ 1 word?)
4. Pronouns are counted?
I would appreciate any kind of additional information.
Thank you.

Will try to answer this the best I can.
1. Yes 2 words.
2. Not sure about this, but I included them on my counting.
3. 2 words
4. Yes I counted them in.
Problem is you don't really know, dito ako bumagsak nun 1st take ko e. Hirap ng Writing talaga, subjective din kasi sa examiner. Good luck mate.

2. I bought the practice material from cambridge nung tiningnan ko kasama sa count nila yan, otherwise, kulang yung words sa mga sample specially dun sa mga 'ideal' sample.
3. 1 kung ang context eh for example "it depends on his/her ability".
4. Yes
Ang kagandahan dun sa cambridge material, they'll show you samples kung ano itsura ng say writing na ang score eh 6.5, 7.0, 8.0 and 'ideal' response. Yung una kong score, 7.0 sa writing, confident ako sa writing and I thought at least kaparehas ko yung sample sa book na ang score eh 8.0. I applied for remarking and eventually was given an 8.0 sa writing (balik pa S$185 ko hehe).
Ang technique na ginawa ko, kada paragraph na matapos ko, bibilangin ko. Then gawa ako small mark for my count. Of course, sinosobrahan ko. Burahin ko na lang mga mark ko later. Btw, hindi lang number of words ang basihan ng pointing system ha.

It is also recommended to use variety of vocabularies, avoiding repetition of words, and check the spelling, to name a few.
Big help din ang Cambridge resources as previously mentioned. Most importantly, yung mga samples taken from various Writings will give an idea of a good score.
