@lizzzie /everyone, ito po mga ginamit kong reviewer na dito ko din lahat nakuha sa forums

1. PTE Academic - Test Plus (pdf with mp3 files) --> para sakin mas madali mga questions dito and mas less complicated which is mas hawig sa real exams, plus pag nakikita kong tama mga sagot, mas lalu akong ginaganahan mag continue magaral
2. PTE Academic Official Guide (.iso) - practice materials lang ito, application sya na makakapag PTE exam ka talaga --> maganda ito in a way na mafefeel mo yung totoong feeling sa exam, same na same ang font size and font style ng text kaso lang medyo mahihirap yung Reading dito (atleast for me)
3. McMillan (pdf with mp3 files) - okay and medyo madali din sya may tips kada exam type at may explanation mga answers kaso mas less ko itong ginamit


+share ko lang din po experience ko sa re-tell lecture, 3 out of 3, halos non-sense pnag sasabi ko hahaha. super konti ng na-notes ko kaya dinaan ko nalang sa template na ginawa ko. back up plan ko lang yung template pero since nahirapan ako, nagamit ko sya for all items ng re-tell lecture. sa mga hirap sa part na to, wag kayo madiscourage kasi tamang diskarte lang talaga ang kailangan

Goodluck and Godbless to all future takers!

@paragon714 in my opinion hindi sya masyadong sulit kasi ung mga sample questions nila dun napagaralan ko na galing sa ibang references ewan ko kung natiming lang saken o ganun ba sa lahat. yung mock tst lang siguro yung nakatulong saken. that is only me opinion ha.

silverblacksoldier

@siena101 congrats! Nakuha ko na rin results ko knina umaga and thankfully, nakuha ko naman yung gusto ko.

Sa question mo regarding EOI, pwede na. Gumawa ako kanina lang. Walang docs na required pero hinihingi yung mga reference number for ACS at PTE.

jhocel

hi! may nag try ba dito ng AECC global pte voucher? is it tru na 8,900 lang tlaga babayaran sa exam?

siena101

@silverblacksoldier thanks! Congrats din sayo. Acs ka rin? Cge gawa na rin ako maya. Will try 189 and 190.

pindiola

may promo code pa ba kayo dyan? ayaw na nung PTE2015. thanks!

misterV

@jhocel I bought the voucher from them when I booked for my exam last January 2017. Seems legit naman sila kasi nagpush through yung code na binigay nila. Although pumunta talaga ako dun sa office nila sa Makati para sure na gumana haha.

misterV

@pikachu13 Ah okay hehe. Although based lang sa experience ko, moderate lang yung level ng boses ko nung nag exam ako so I don't think na yung lakas ng boses yung factor dun. Maybe clearer lang talaga yung pronunciation and more fluent yung mga nakasabay mong indians? As far as I know, di finafactor sa pte yung accent, rather, the machine focuses on the clarity and continuity.

pikachu13

@mistervirata ah okay hehe.btw, dun sa summarize written text,mina maximize mo ba yung 75 words or less?mga ilan?tnx

question po.. totoo po ba yung pag naka first take ka tapos di mo nakuha yung required score sa isa halimbawa speaking pwede ba mag 2nd take pero ang target ay speaking lang tapos pagpatungin lang yung mga scores?

jhocel

@mistervirata Thank you! but how does it work? bibigyan ka ng code?

misterV

@pikachu13 55+ words ata yung ginawa ko dun. hehe.

@jhocel email nila yung code sayo

jhocel

ahwww! thanks @mistervirata. I need to practice tlaga kasi mababa ako sa oral fluency.

pindiola

Everyday akong nagbabasa ng 1 article dito --> https://www.sciencedaily.com/
Then yung mga words na hindi ko alam, nireresearch ko lang din sa net, then gumawa lang ako ng list of vocabulary ko. Aside from expanding your vocabulary, pwede mo din isummarize yung nabasa mong article, pinaka practice mo nadin sa Summarize Written Text. Hope this helps! Good luck po

michaelguanzon_ust

Share ko lang din po ito, aside from all the efforts in reviewing and practicing, pray this for 9 days including your exam day.. Big help and worked for me

@pindiola Ano bibilhin mo - practice set or exam na? I bought mine through AECC. Legit naman sila. Yun exam is only 8,900 tapos I bought Silver Kit nasa 1,900 pero di ko nagamit.

pindiola

Hi everyone,

Pwede pong maka hingi ng tips in Retell Lecture? What template po ang ginamit ninyo? Thanks.

pindiola

@Xiaomau82 @MissM got it thanks for sa tips.

silverblacksoldier

Hi all. Are PTE scores automatically sent to DIBP when you create an EOI? I received a confirmation that my scores were sent to DIBP but I did not make a request to do so. Thanks in advance!

Trish1208

@michaelguanzon_ust hi! baka naman pwede mahingi ung template mo sa re-tell lecture? thanks. God bless.

paragon714

Hi. Just want to ask your advice. Anyone here who tried to reschedule the exam to make it one day before the scheduled date? I tried it in the website but you can choose only to reschedule it to the future available dates. Thanks in advance.

diskartepinay

Good Morning. Gusto ko lang malaman ilang weeks kayo nag prepare for the exam? TIA

michaelguanzon_ust

@Trish1208 / @coachella9/ everyone, hindi po ako masyadong nag focus sa content pero ito ginamit ko, ako lang gumawa ng template na yan then finill ko lang talaga yung blanks ng galing sa notes ko, since memorized ko yang part na yan, inensure ko lang na maganda at malinis pagkakabigkas ko dyan and hindi masyadong mabilis. hope it helps:)

template:
The lecture provided a brief information about _____________.
According to the speaker, _______________.
He/She also said that __________________.
Overall, the speaker discussed all the details clearly and provided all the necessary information.

example:
Notes:
•HDI
•ranks the nation - life expectancy, education, income
•in 2006 - ranking (Australia, Ireland, etc.)

Answer:
The lecture provided a brief information about Human Development Index or HDI.
According to the speaker, HDI ranks the nations through various categories which includes life expectancy, education and income.
He also said that in 2006, the most rated country is Australia.
Overall, the speaker discussed all the details clearly and provided all the necessary information.

Something like that hehehe, hindi yan ang best answer pero it worked for me
