PTE ACADEMIC

Hi @jema, di ba abolished na ang 457?

Anyway, same like for EA, nagaaccept sila ng combined scores for assessment, but I dont think DIBP accepts combined scores.

I took the exam again last May 16, here are my scores L- 88, S - 88, W- 87, R- 72. Hindi ko maintindhan how can i get these enabling scores tapos 72 lang reading ko..



Grammar - 79

Oral Fluency - 79

Pronounciation -80

Spelling -90

Vocabulary -84

Written discourse - 90



Any suggestion po?

Hi @PMPdreamer , possible case kasi na magaling sa grammar, fluent, magaling sa pronunciation, spelling, malawak ang vocabulary at magaling magsulat(most are from speaking and writing), pero sa reading nagkaproblema.

Maaring may mga maling sagot sa multiple choice or sa reorder paragraph. Eto kasi yung mga parts na walang typing element, eto yung parts ng exam na hindi nagcocontribute sa enabling skills and are just basically testing your reading/understanding capabilities.

Cheers

Hi. I need help. I took the set A exam from the PTE gold kit and this is the result:

Listening80
Reading60
Speaking62
Writing78

Can anybody please help with with speaking and reading? Any tips? I used the template given in this forum for speaking section.

jessy

Tanong ko lang din sana kung familiar kayo sa practicepte.com? Legit ba ito? Purchase sana ako ng pte materials. Thanks

@jessy For speaking try to speak as much as you can during the 40 seconds time. Naalala ko nung exam ko madami akong maling pinagsasabi na di nagrereflect sa data dun sa describe image pero mataas pa din score ko sa speaking.

aisleandrow

@jessy di rin mataas score ko sa mock exam tapos kung ano ano lang din pinagsasabi ko sa describe image at sa retell lecture. Ng stick ako sa templates ko para tuloy tuloy lang ako. Nung time ko meron ako nung mga combine grap mga tig 2 or 3 graph lumalabas sa describe image. Binasa ko lang yung isa tapos sa retell lecture wala ako masyado naintindihan sa narinig ko. Gumawa ako ng sarili kong story haha! basta andun parin yung mga words na narinig ko sa lecture. Basta tuloy tuloy lang

jessy

ok thanks @boy_sisig and @aisleandrow ... Worried ako kc take na ako ng exam this 29. tsk! nahirapan din ako sa reorder paragraph. waaaa.... Sa speaking ano pano ang pacing? at nagclick ba kayo ng next agad after magsalita? thanks

aisleandrow

@jessy oo click agad. tuloy tuloy na medyo mabilis. yung parang nakikipagchikahan na tuloy tuloy ngsasalita

@kuya.king
i lodge it before ang announcement.
=( im really sad to hear that na di pwede combined =( it means masasayang ung application ko?
I uploaded Certificate of English Language as mode of teaching sa secondary at teriary, aaccept kaya nila?

kuya.king

@jema i see. Sad to know that.

The best thing na naiisip ko is to take an urgent english test, whichever has the fastest results. Ang kaso, makikita sya when mo tinake, I believe it should be taken before invitation. Im not sure about this, I think you can verify it direct with DIBP what your options are. Anyway, may binigay ba na deadline/timeline to provide? Or nakapagfeedback ka na?

Hi @aisleandrow , tanong ko lang tama ba na pang 8th time mo na nag take ng PTE? grabe I am encouraged by your perseverance!

aisleandrow

@ray1188 oo 8th times tapos yung pang 8th ko yung wala na akong gana na sobrang sukang suka nako sa kakapractice kahit naglalaba ng reretell lecture ako. Nakabuo nako ng story sa utak ko in case wala akong maintindihan sa describe image at retell lecture. Muntik ko ng ipacancel yung pang 8th ko tapos sabi sa online walang mababalik sa binayad ko kasi less than 7days nko from my exam. So ayun napilitan akong mg exam. Yan yung pinaka relax ko na exam kaya naniniwala ako na better to relax and let it go!

MissOZdreamer

Hello guys. Im going to take PTE for the second time para tumaas ang overall points ko. Though nagsubmit na ko eoi for 189 & 190 with only 60 & 65 points. Based sa trend, i wont get invited soon with that points since may ceiling and pro rata ang occupation ko 2613. Can you please share any motivation and inspiration during your PTE journey? Right now hindi ako motivated and tinatamad ako mag review i just need a little push para bumalik ung momentum ulit. Thanks po sa mga sasagot

@aisleandrow naniniwala talaga ako dito na dapat relax ka. ako nung nag take ako medyo pressured kasi gusto kung makapasa agad ang resulta bagsak.
yung asawa ko hindi nag study at yung template na binigay dito yun lang ang inaral nya last hour pa.muntik na din nya e pa cancel kasi nga sure sya na bagsak kasi walang preparation pero tinuloy na din kasi pinilit ko. yung resulta ang taas ng score nya mga 68pts. pasok na sa 10pts na need nya.hihi...dapat nga talaga relax lang. :>

aisleandrow

@gwapita_me exactly! kasi mas nagpapanic ka kapag di ka kalmado. Fluency is rated kung gaano ka smooth ka magsalita. Di naman alam ng computer ano nakikita mo at naririnig mo except dun sa multiple choice at sa writing.

MissOZdreamer

@kuya.king hello. Thanks po sa encouragement. Nabasa ko ung unedited comment.hehe I really appreciate it God bless

Heprex

@MissOZdreamer Aja!!

lizzzie

hi good evening everyone..

tanong ko lang regarding sa e2 language test kit.. ano difference nung $79 sa gold kit na $59? mas ok po ba reviewhin ung express nila na $79?

thank you! God bless!

MissOZdreamer

@Heprex fighting!

Heprex

@MissOZdreamer I'm also on my quest to Superior, kaya natin to. Ito na lang ang kulang natin para ma-invite.

MissM

@MissOZdreamer Push lang sis! Have enough rest the night before the exam. Mindset mo na Superior ang makukuha mo ngayon.

MissOZdreamer

@Heprex kaya natin to. Walang susuko! kelan mo plan mag retake ng pte?

I asked myself these questions para matauhan ako:

1. If I wont retake pte I might get invited probably in a year or so. Will that be ok for me? Definitely not

2. If I want to get invited soon what must I do? Retake pte and get a superior mark

3. To get a superior mark in pte what must I do? Study hard, focus, never quit, manage my time wisely, think positive, pray and trust God.

4. If I won't do the things in #3 what will happen? I will waste my money, time and effort over and over again. My OZ dream will take a long time before it becomes a reality.

5. Can I afford #4 to happen? Never

6. What must I do then? Go to #2

MissOZdreamer

@MissM thanks sis sige imind set ko na yan. Nakita ko post mo sa PTE review materials thread, very helpful I downloaded the materials na pero sabi mo mas nagamit mo ung pte test plus kesa macmillan. Bakit di mo masyado ginamit ung macmillan?

Heprex

@MissOZdreamer i-print ko yan, lagay ko sa work desk ko.

May schedule na ako sa last week of June. Focusing on my weaknesses now, reading and writing, specially essay. Just keep practicing and do what we need to do. We have all the help we need in this forum, the rest is up to us. Aja!

albertus1982

@Heprex and @MissOZdreamer good luck and God bless sa inyo! kayang kayan nyo yan

MissOZdreamer

@Heprex go for it

iniisip ko din magretake last week of june just in time for the first invitation round in july kung papalarin pero need ko pa din igauge ang sarili ko if ready na ko talaga before ako magbook para di masayang ang pera.hehe previously, i used e2language during my review pero it seems some of the techniques there are not effective for me. Need ko ng new technique this time....

need ko din magfocus more sa reading kasi un ang weakness ko. For speaking, i will use the templates na nashare dito. For writing, i will check ung format ni steven fernandez. For listening, need to practice taking down keywords while listening.

God bless sa exam. Kaya mo yan. Aja!

MissOZdreamer

@albertus1982 salamat sa help and encouragement God bless

albertus1982

guys pede nyo gamitin to sa reading. malaking tulong para sakin maraming sets yan ha

@Lizzie

E2 language - it's more of videos, methods and practice. It also include live mock test with other students..(Note: it is not scored.) The really important you will get is their methods and practice all the materials) - 30 days validity

Ptepractice Gold Kit - Sample questions on all categories of the exam that you could repeat over and over again. 2 scored mock test which you will experience like you were taking the actual exam. It was scored that can help you gauge what is the part that you still need to practice. 3 months validity.

If you have budget, you could purchase both else I would suggest e2language express package then practice more of their tips and methods.
