    @Diana__Jane

    I allotted a month to familiarise myself with the flow and type of the exam. I highly suggest mock test (2 sets) para malaman mo kung saan ang weakness mo and then focus from there. Also, para mag ka idea ka rin on the flow ng exam at saka para mag karoon ka ng idea on how to budget your time in Reading (usually kasi may examinees na hindi to na ttpos so you need to know how to budget your time wisely).

    @SAP_Melaka now Ko lang nakita yung file Na shinare mo. Actually I got that same email a day after Ko nakuha Na available Na scores Ko. I saw my scores Na when I got that email :). Look at it this way, no news is good news. And madami Ako nabasa, yung mga nag antay ng mas matagal, halos lahat got the scores they wanted :). Hassle Lang talaga yung suspense
