Hello, gaano po ka accurate yung results ng PTE mock tests? Baka po meron makaka-share kung saan ako pwede mag focus to increase yung scores na nakuha ko. Meron pa po akong 1 and a half week to make some adjustments.
Mock test A: 78/73/85/72 (L/R/S/W) Mock test B: 81/73/77/78 (L/R/S/W)
Salamat po!

I always thought that Mock test results are scored lower than the real PTE exam. Mock test ko are always +79. But in the real exam, bumaba siya sa 71. so it really depends. sometimes yung environment ng exam nakaka affect din sa test mo..

Thanks, @ga2au is it really distracting yung noise sa real test? in a scale of 1-5, how noisy is the environment you had during your exam?

Depende sa tao siguro. In my case, I used to study in a quiet environment. Tapos headset ko pa nun talagang sakop na sakop tenga ko. Nung dumating ako sa exam, full pack ang room, nasa 13 kami. Kahit anung focus ko, naririnig ko parin, kasi may mga malalakas tlaga ang boses.(lalo na yung katabi ko. heheh) Andun din yung kaba kasi halos lahat ng Repeat sentence ko walang tumama. so in a way, nabawasan yung concentration ko kasi pakiramdam ko bagsak ako sa Speaking. (surprisingly, yung pa na 90 ko. ) hahaha so depende sayo. baka pagdating sayo ayos naman.

@eioj16 mas madali ang questions sa real exam kaysa sa mock test. yung ingay lang sa speaking ang kalaban mo sa real exam lalo na kung madaming exam takers.

You can try TCY. pero medyo kulang ang evaluation ng score nila. Pinakamaganda is yung mock test tlaga ng PTE. worth it naman ang bayad. kumpara kung uulitin mo.

Hello all! I just took the exam today and surprisingly, nakuha ko agad yung result this afternoon! Just to give a background, nagtake na ako ng exam 2016 (L85/R76/S81/W80) pero dahil ang taas na ng kailangan ko na score, I had to retake para makakuha ng 20 pts sa language and yessss! I finally got my desired scores today (L90/R90/S90/W90). Sobrang laking help ng forum na to kasi ang dami ko nakuhang tips so thank you everyone!
For me nakatulong talaga yung mga Youtube videos from E2 PTE Academic kasi malalaman nyo kung ano ba talaga yung kailangan nyo gawin sa bawat type ng exam.
Importante din na magmock exam para mafeel nyo talaga kung paano yung flow ng exam at hindi kayo magulat sa actual exam.
At yung pinakaimportante - practice practice practice!
Also, I am selling my unused mock exam for 1.2k - Set C from ptepractice. Message me if interested!

After 4 takes, eto ang tips na pinaka nakatulong sakin.
1) Search E2 Language sa Youtube to learn about METHODs regarding PTE. Dito nyo makikita yung mga tips at kung pano gawin. 2) Add your own 'flavor' sa methods sa taas. For example sakin, hirap ako listening at repeat sentence, gumawa ako ng way para mapadali. For repeat sentence - sinusulat ko yung first letter ng words, so lagi akong kumpleto. It's not 100% fool proof (around 5 mistakes ako last time) pero at least nagwork sya sakin and perfect ko ang speaking. 3) PRACTICE! Eto pinaka tingin kong pinaka importante. Visit ptetutorials.com, meron silang 10 libreng mock exams. 70-80 items so makukuwa nyo yung 'feel' ng exam. Meron din silang app for practice. Around 300 items per test section para mahasa kayo lalo. 4) PRAY!
PM nyo lang ako if may gusto kayong klaruhin.

mas madali ang questions sa real exam kaysa sa mock test. yung ingay lang sa speaking ang kalaban mo sa real exam lalo na kung madaming exam takers.

For me nakatulong talaga yung mga Youtube videos from E2 PTE Academic kasi malalaman nyo kung ano ba talaga yung kailangan nyo gawin sa bawat type ng exam.
Importante din na magmock exam para mafeel nyo talaga kung paano yung flow ng exam at hindi kayo magulat sa actual exam.
At yung pinakaimportante - practice practice practice!
Also, I am selling my unused mock exam for 1.2k - Set C from ptepractice. Message me if interested!

1) Search E2 Language sa Youtube to learn about METHODs regarding PTE. Dito nyo makikita yung mga tips at kung pano gawin.
2) Add your own 'flavor' sa methods sa taas. For example sakin, hirap ako listening at repeat sentence, gumawa ako ng way para mapadali.
For repeat sentence - sinusulat ko yung first letter ng words, so lagi akong kumpleto. It's not 100% fool proof (around 5 mistakes ako last time) pero at least nagwork sya sakin and perfect ko ang speaking.
3) PRACTICE! Eto pinaka tingin kong pinaka importante. Visit ptetutorials.com, meron silang 10 libreng mock exams. 70-80 items so makukuwa nyo yung 'feel' ng exam. Meron din silang app for practice. Around 300 items per test section para mahasa kayo lalo.
4) PRAY!
PM nyo lang ako if may gusto kayong klaruhin.
