how to improve SPEAKING and READING section? thanks

Ivan_M · February 2017

Hi Guys, bago lang po ako dito.

I also took IELTS 2x here in Dubai, nag fail ako both times with just .5 difference sa Writting (1st test) then another .5 sa Speaking (2nd test). Then nag PTE na ako.

Got my desired score from my first exam and more! naka 90 ako on all categories kaya gulat rin ako.

check out E2 Language from youtube and do the practice test to see where you're lacking.

squinx22 · February 2017

Sinubukan ko ung paid mock test sa PTE. Medyo nahirapan ako sa reading. Hayssss Practice pa more!

L 70
R 62
S 75
W 69

Target ko kahit 65 points lng.

@Ivan_M Hello, sa Dubai ka din pala. Saan kang center nag exam?

traveltart · February 2017

@sammybear Hi! Dun po ako nag exam. Less than 24 hours. 9am po ako nag exam. Nareceive ko po yung result at 4.30am.

Ivan_M · February 2017

@Diana__Jane Hi Diana, yup dito rin sa Dubai. I suggest you take your exam at The Exam Preparation & Testing House in Silicon Oasis. Nakita ko na yung as Al Barsha and they don't look really comfortable. Parang internet cafe lang siya with cardboards as dividers. Whereas sa TEPTH, wood desks with wood cubicles yung testing centre nila.

I suggest take the test in an inconspicuous day like Tuesday morning (10am). That way konti lang kayo mag tetest, nung test date ko, 2 lang kami (indian yung kasabay ko). Sa Al Barsha (JNS), punuan usually.

Like I said, do take E2 Languages videos from youtube seriously, lalu na yung sa Describe Image method nila.

Good luck Diana!

Ivan_M · February 2017

@squinx22 Hi! Practice lang yan and makukuha mo yan in no time!

Ivan_M · February 2017

@Diana__Jane Mag reretake ka ba ulit ng exam?

vincechaos · February 2017

@Ivan_M Congrats on your Superior in English Result! Btw, anu inaapplyan m na VISA? I suggest that you put your status in your signature setting. See sample VISA application status in my signature.

Ivan_M · February 2017

@vincechaos Hi! Thank you! Actually na gulat talaga ako sa result, as I was expecting it much lower but I was hopeful na makakakuha ako ng passing score. Anyway, I'll try to edit my signature mamaya sa bahay

Nasa office ako now and may konting down time kaya browsing lang ako dito.

Also, same to you ganda ng score mo sa PTE!

Ivan_M · February 2017

@vincechaos We might apply for state sponsoring sa Canberra, but I'm looking at options for Skilled Independent. Hopefully it's more promising.

@Ivan_M Salamat! Truly, the 80+ grades in all the PTE sections is a blessing and will fast track our application for Permanent Resident Visa.
Btw, you have an option whether to choose VISA 189/190. Depends on the outcome of your assessment. Like me, I am still waiting for the assessment as to how many years the VETASSESS will give me as my years of exp in my IA occupation.

sammybear · February 2017

@traveltart wala pa rin sakin

Saturday Ka rin ba nag exam?

Diana__Jane · February 2017

@Ivan_M Oo tatake ulit, super competitive ng selection and invitation process sa accountants. Currently, my EOI is at 70, kaya lang parang ang naiinvite 75 and above mostly for visa 189.

Ivan_M · February 2017

@Diana__Jane Ah okay, I hope you get your desired marks soon! Anyway, check this playlist I made for PTE-A reviewer. Laking tulong nila eh, if ever wala ka pang reviewer na effective.

Medyo na tyambahan ko lang yung score ko pero naka tulong yung mga videos and practice for sure.

Good luck!

Ado · February 2017

hi mga idol - tanong ko lang for PTE, bumili pa po ba kayo ng mga reviewers bukod dun sa "Gold Preparation kit"? tapos ung sa gold preparation kit, minsan mo lang mo ba yun magagamit or as long as pasok ka sa 90 days pwede mo ulit ulitin? salamat!

jerm_au16 · February 2017

@Ado My “Pte Review Materials” forum dto. Dun ako nkakuha ng mga reviewers. Otherwise, try mo back read p, my mga free reviewer links n prinovide ang iba. Once lng dn pwede gamitin ung scored mock tests, pero ung mga sample questions n hnd scored pwedeng balik balikan.

jerm_au16 · February 2017

Meron po b dto ang nakapagpurchase ng scored mocktest sa TCYonline?

Hi guys, just want to share my experience. (not a very happy one

)...

I took my PTE last Sat, 25Feb, here in Jeddah. Up til now wala pa rin result. There was an incident during my exam. After ko mag mic test ng pagkatagal tagal, nung nagstart na ko mag read aloud, nagtaka ko bakit in 2-3 sec eh biglang nagcomplete na agad ung recording eh ilang words pa lang yung nasasabi ko. Then I called the attention of the admin, he said just click next and try again tapos umalis na sya. So 2nd item, same thing happened. I called him again. Next ko lang din daw ulet. 3rd item same thing. Then the admin, rebooted my PC.

While waiting for my PC to boot, chineck ko yung button sa headset for the controls ng volume at mic na nakabaligtad facing down sa table. AYUN! nakamute pala mic. Napindot pala yung mute button. It was a new type of headset (Microsoft). Nung First take ko di pa un ang headset, Plantronics pa ata yun.

To cut the story short, sabi nung admin magfile nalang daw sya ng incident report then expect ako ng call from PTE. I waited two days now. I called again the test center today, just finding out na di pala nagsubmit ng incident report itong si admin guy. grrrrr....

Now meron na kong incident number. But when I called the PTE Customer Service (na napakamahal ng charge) sabi nila since ngayon lang daw nacreate yung incident report, I would need to wait for another couple of days for the call. If wla daw tumawag, follow up ako after 3-5 days. Haayyy...

After all the preparations, and thinking na "this is it!!!", ayun hassle pa. I was hoping pa naman na makahabol for the March1 invi round.

Anyways, all is in God's control. Just need to trust in His perfect timing...

Just sharing guys...

@squinx22 pano ung mock 3 mo?nag avail ka ulit ng another set of gold kit?ty:)

squinx22 · February 2017

@vanessajoy nung umpisa nagavail ako ng solo lng tas gusto ko kc magpractice pa ng marami. Ayoko kc sayangin ang chance. Then nagavail ako ulit ng gold kit. Satisfied naman ako sa results ng mock test. Marami nagsabi na mas madali daw ang real exam kaya positive vibes din ako. Target ko kahit 65 lng pero sana palarin ng 79 para auto invitation.
