    @larkspur_ksl Congrats! If you don't mind me asking, do you do systems support? Ano ang required English score ng Vetassess? Madali pa magpa-assess dun?

    I'm going to take PTE exam soon, but I'm thinking of other options kung saan magpa-assess.

    Thanks in advanced :)

    @Lexi thanks. Yes, dapat Support Engr or Sys Ad yung ipapa assess ko kaso lang nag special condition/medium avail na sila sa SA tapos naging 70pts requirement kaya yung Cust Support ang sinubukan ko.

    TRA yung assessing body ng Cust Support, sa Vetassess yung education ko lang pina assess ko. Ang pagkaka alam ko walang requirement ang Veta sa language, pwede ka magpa assess agad kahit wala pa PTE. Same din sa TRA kahit wala pa language exam. Meron dito separate topic para don, check mo mas marami ka makukuha info :)

    Good luck sa PTE exam, God bless! :)

    Hello guys, bago po ako sa thread na ito. I've been a silent follower for quite some time now. Si hubby ang primary applicant and I read this thread to help him with the tips. Recently we received his results and yung speaking medyo frustrating. Sabi kasi sa youtube tips na napanuod namin, dapat yung pag sabi ng sentence is per segment... pero sabi dito sa forum dapat tuloy tuloy. So I guess thats the reason why mababa sya sa fluency.. PTE Academic results L:82 R:80 S:66 W:86 :(

    We are aiming for 79+ per band for 189.

    Mag exam ulit this month end using solely mga tips dito sa thread. Hoping and praying to get our desired score na.

    Congratulations sa mga nakapasa na and sa mga nasa Australia na!
    Really inspiring stories. :)

    Pag sinabing "tuloy tuloy" ibig sabihin lang na dpat di ka nag hesitate or mag pause ng matagal ng wala sa tiyempo. Kunwari sa Describe Image, dapat continuous ka magsalita for about 35 secs.

    Iba naman yung "reading in segments" sa Read Aloud. Syempre kelangan mag pause ka after sentences and phrases. Makababa din kasi ng score kung di ka magbabasa with the correct phrasing sa Read Aloud. At importante din ang intonation. Dapat pababa ang tone pag end ng sentences.

    @ClmOptimist similar den sa binigay ni @jaceejoef yung ginamit ko. kapag nakabisasdo mo na yan, yung short time na meron ka mas mafofocus mo sa pag analyze ng graphs/images and sa lectures.

    good luck! :)

    Hi guys, I copied a template of Retell Lecture posted in this thread before.

    " The lecture provided a brief information about (topic) and a significant amount of time was spent discussing this topic.
    The speaker concluded after all the data points were discussed completely.
    To summarize her/his analysis, she/he pointed out that (1st point)
    In addition, she/he also mentioned that (2nd point)"

    my question is: is it enough not to include a conclusion at the end?

    TIA :)

    Hi guys!

    Im happy to say, naka band 66+ na rin ako.. after 3 tries... 10points na claim ko. EOI 189/190 {65pts/70pts}

    Salamat guys! Utang ko sa inyo mga tips na binigay nyo...

    Sa mga mag eexam, eto lang masasabi ko... Concentration ang Key sa Exam...

    Weird to say... Naglasing ako kinagabihan bago exam... And yun... lagapak ako sa kama, tulog ng 10hrs... pag gising sa umaga... buong buo utak ko, wala gano iniisip at fresh....

    Nung una try ko kasi, a day before the exam, d ako mapakali, excited, stress, kinakabahan, so ang tendency, di ako nakatulog kinagabihan... so walang concentration pag dating sa exam kasi nga wala tulog... kaya bagsak. haha ...


    Salamat guys!!!
