@jedh_g di gumana kahit try ko yung PTE2016 wala pa rin, anyway, okay na bumili na ko...
time to move on with my 6.5 speaking sa IELTS but I think I did better, now thinking about of remarking....

Hi dorbsdee, kelan ka magttake ng PTE? Ako kasi june 6...

Took the exam yesterday (supposedly May 9 pero naubusan ng slot) and got the result just now. Thanks God pasado :-)
I would say medyo mas mahirap yung format ng PTE kesa IELTS and medyo challenging sa speaking kasi sabay2 kayo nagsasalita ng ibang test takers. But overall the experience was good. Good luck sa inyo guys :-)

@wolf7309 congrats!

dorbsdee

@cheezy_pops yan din target date ko kaso lang di pa ako nagbook dahil baka kulangin ako sa preparation time, kung satisfied ako sa mock test then book na ako ng test.
magandang date yung six una dahil imperfect number, pangalawa expected ng week on ITA.
so kung after 1 or 2 days may result ka na pwede na agad update EOI.
Not sure anong mga changes sa DIBP after July.
BTW, galing ako ng BC I paid P4,092 for the remarking of my IELTS Speaking....
pero tuloy pa rin PTE just in case my back-up na IELTS.

@wolf7309 congrats!

wolf7309

@cheezy_pops yup,nagtake ako ng practice test,binili ko kasi ung gold kit and I recommend it to everyone kasi magkakaroon ka ng idea kung paano yung actual exam and malalaman mo kung ano yung weakness mo.

April 11 - Start PTE Review
Test A LRSW - 70 67 76 69 April 23
Test B LRSW - 74 72 70 74 May 2
PTE Acad LRSW - 67 78 68 78 May 13

Nun nagexam ako may construction site sa malapit and maingay ung machine nila pambakbak ng semento, tingin ko nakaapekto un sa listening kasi naooverride yung headset and nagkakaroon ng difficulty intindihin yung recording. Sa speaking din napansin ko na supposedly after 3 sec na dika nagsalita magsstop na un recording pero sa case ko yung iba hindi lalo na kapag nagsasalita un ibang test takers.Tingin ko napipick up niya yung mga nagsasalita :-)

Makaryo

hello po, any one experience having issue on their gold kit practice exam? i tried different browser and different headset walang ma detect na sound ung mic at kahit I already allowed access sa camera and mic. thanks po

@dddrew sa multipla choice with multiple answers, alam ko right minus wrong.

garfield

My husband will be taking PTE this coming May 28 sa Dubai sana ito na ung chance maka kuha ng 10points. Sino po ba mag take or nakapag take sa Dubai pa share naman ng experience nyu. Thanks in advance.

Captain_A

@dddrew & @Urlilangel_christy i suggest sir to place your mic between lips and chin.. open your mouth more when you speak to give emphasis to your pronunciations at hindi makain ang ilang letra sa salita.. speak moderately rin sir and smile while speaking.. wag po susuko kaya nyo yan.. God bless

Captain_A

@wolf7309 congrats EOi na

wolf7309

@Captain_A thanks, yup yun na next na gagawin ko, kelan lang magkausap tayo about dito sa PTE and here we are now :-)

dddrew

@ddrew , yes for me, initially i got scores sa fluency and speaking na around 50-60. I tried to ensure that my mic is around 45 deg with respect to lips and triple checked un mic test. Tumaas ng onti yung 2nd mock exam but nde parin passing. Fortunately sa real exam naman, perfect score (90) for everything)

Don't be discouraged. Just remember for speaking lalo na yung may long time for you to speak, salita lang ng salita with the proper punctuations and pauses *not too long*, Kahit mali mali grammar. parang ang laki kasi ng deduction nung computer sa spaces and pag hindi spontaneous un pagsasalita mo.

Thanks ngayon ko lang to nabasa. I still have 1 day left to cram haha

@dddrew sa multipla choice with multiple answers, alam ko right minus wrong.

@dddrew, download ka sa PTE website ng score guide Tips at PTE Test Tips

sa Reading
- Multiple Choice, choose multiple answer

sa Listening
-Multiple Choice, choose multiple answer
- Highlight Incorrect words

Hmmm kaya din siguro mababa yung speaking at reading ko sa scored test. This is noted, I think I've red somewhere na it's better to answer just 1 instead of 2 kung hindi ka sure sa 2nd answer because it won't deduct any point..

Captain_A

@wolf7309 onga sir, habol na kayo sa May 25 round of invitation.

Hi dorbsdee, kelan ka magttake ng PTE? Ako kasi june 6...

@Urlilangel_christy, mukhang expired na PTE2015 code..

Urlilangel_christy

Normally ba ano ending nyo sa retell lecture. Although yung template dito it works..pero naubos na yata time ko sa template pa lang. What could you suggest for fillers.

Yung exam , tama yung sabi ng isang commentor dito na sa short question nay nakalagay na details na sa gilid at don hanapin ang answer. ano ba bagong exprience ng nag exam dito? yung lumalabas ..share share naman ....

If anyone knows the new discount code. Thanks in advance . GOD BLESS
