Hello! Magtatake ako dapat earlier this year ng PTE pero ayun nga nasira ng pandemic lahat ng plano. So ayun balak ko magtake next year mga Feb, ipon lang ng fee hehe. Advisable ba na magtake na ko that time or wag muna since hindi pa din naglalabas ng list si NSW? Also, saan ba at paano ko magsisimula? Sorry naooverwhelm kasi ko sa mga kailangan

alamin mo po yun mga test format. and practice mo yun mga techniques for each test format. kasi kahit magaling ka mag english, thats not gonna be enough to get a high score. marami po free resources online kahit sa youtube. tapos practice lang ng practice.

Merry Christmas everyone.
Hihingi po sana ako ng tips/help/templates sa mga nakapag-exam na.
I got that result today at sobrang baba po ng nakuha ko. During my exam the headphone that I am using was working properly during the testing of microphone test. Until I reached the 2nd part of my speaking exam which RS, no audio so when I raised the concern nag-reboot/start lang ng computer and returned to where I was left off, but again no audio until they decided to replaced the headphone that I’m using. And because of this incident I was too worried, distracted na baka the entire READ ALOUD ko which is a 7 or more items walang na-capture yung microphone.
I want to share my experience because I really feel bad to receive my result today and it’s way too low. 😭😭😭

Hello, ang sabi sa Australian Study Requirement, kelangan nakastudy ka ng 16 months sa Australia. Pero dahil covid, counted sya as long as meron ka nang student visa.

New student po ako😬 I have never been to AU as a student. Feb2021 intake sana kaso wala pako PTE exam. Baka idefer ko nalang kasi mukhang hindi nako makakabahol not unless okay lang sa uni na mag online class ako kahit wla pako student visa kasi mag-apply plang sana ako once may result nako ng PTE exam

Oh i think you misunderstood me. You can start online classes anytime kasi enrolled ka na. With or without visa you can study if merong online class and the uni allowed you to study.
I am talking about the Australian Study Requirement, which allows you to apply for the Temporary Visa 485. It also gives you 5 additional points in your PR application in the future. As long as you meet the conditions in the Australian Study Requirement, then you are good.

That’s the answer I was looking for 😊 If I can start my studies without a student visa. So I just need to take the PTE exam and get the required score. Hopefully the uni offers online class in nursing. I'm still waiting for their response. Anyway, thanks for your replies. God bless🙂

Happy New Year to everyone! I'm preparing to take the exam next week but I'm worried sa ApeUni speaking ko. Usually ang score ko for each item is 40 to 60 lang. For those who used ApeUni, do I need to worry much about sa speaking or di accurate scoring nila? I'm doing okay for writing, listening and reading, speaking lang talaga.. huhu

Naexperience ko din ito sa Apeuni. Mababa ang mga scores na nakukuha ko. Nabasa ko somewhere here na may iba din na nakakaranas nito. Kaya from then on hindi na ako nagrely sa scoring ni Apeuni for Speaking.

Hi po sa lahat, Happy New Year po! Would like to ask some advice in speaking po sana. Twice na po ako nagtake ng PTE, mababa po talaga yung speaking ko. First take ko po I got 49 then second take po was 58. I tried speaking in a loud voice and normal pace, still mababa pa din po. I feel frustrated kasi yun na lang ang need ko i-improve and required score po sakin is 65. Please, gusto ko po sana makuha sa third take. Pano pong practice ginawa nyo po? May template din po akong gamit sa DI and RL. Hindi ko po alam kung ano po need ko gawin.

Tips para sa mga mag-take ng PTE
Part 1: Speaking & Writing
Read aloud - Basahin lang yung texts ng normal, 'wag mabilis at 'wag din mabagal. Imagine yourself na parang reporter sa TV, tapos mag-pause din sa commas and periods. Pronunciation ay important.
Repeat sentence - FOCUS. Kapag hindi mo maulit ng buo yung sentence, okay lang yun. Ang importante kapag hindi ka sure sa narinig mo, at least yung sound medyo gayahin mo, para lang yung dating eh nabuo mo yung sentence.
Describe image - use E2Language's structure, yun lang swear makukuha mo 'to.
INTRO: " This "TYPE OF CHART" represents "TITLE" which includes "CITE EXAMPLES FROM X/Y AXIS OF CHART"
BODY: Compare highest vs lowest, most vs. least or maximum vs. minimum.
Conclusion: In conclusion/To summarize..."yung pagkakaintindi niyo sa chart".
PLAN B: Since mabilisan 'to, minsan nakakalito mag-isip ng conclusion, pwede mo din sabihin na "In conclusion, the chart/table provided useful information about "TITLE".
NOTE: 'Wag na 'wag mag-pause.
Re-tell lecture - USE E2Language's structure. (PLEASE TAKE DOWN KEY WORDS)
a. The speaker was discussing "TITLE"
b. He/She talked about KEYWORD 1
c. He/She mentioned KEYWORD 2
d. He/She highlighted KEYWORD 3
e. He/She discussed KEYWORD 4
f. He/She talked about KEYWORD 5
g. He/She suggested that KEYWORD 6
TIP: Before mag-start yung section na 'to, sinulat ko yung structure sa provided na paper. Para yung keywords, parang i-fill in the blanks mo na lang.
Answer short question - madali lang 'to.
Summarize written text - make sure na include yung main point ng paragraph and at least one or two sub-points.
Essay - Ganun din, USE E2Language's structure.
Intro: Sentence 1: Rewrite "General Statement"
Sentence 2: Mention side 1 and side 2
Sentence 2: Give overall opinion
Paragraph 1: Sentence 1: Restate "Side 1"
Sentence 2: Give reason/s
Sentence 3: Give example/s
Sentence 4: Conclude "Side 1"
Paragraph 2: Sentence 1: Restate "Side 2"
Sentence 2: Give reason/s
Sentence 3: Give example/s
Sentence 4: Conclude "Side 2"
Conclusion: Sentence 1: Rewrite "General Statement"
Sentence 2: Give overall opinion 1 or 2
TIP: PRACTICE at TIME MANAGEMENT. Yung 20 minutes mabilis lang.
Part 2: Reading
Multiple choice, choose single answer - Understand the question tapos connect question sa answer options and then read text.
Multiple choice, choose multiple answers - at least two answers para safe
Re-order paragraphs - PRACTICE. use PTETUTORIALS(may app din sila)
Reading: Fill in the blanks - PRACTICE. use PTETUTORIALS. Collocations ang importante dito
Reading & writing: Fill in the blanks - PRACTICE. Clues mo para sa answers ay depende sa context, semantics, at grammar
Part 3: Listening
Summarize spoken text - Structure? Same lang ng RE-TELL LECTURE.
Multiple choice, choose multiple answer - at least two answers para safe
Fill in the blanks - madali lang 'to. Pero practice pa din. Press "TAB" para mag-skip sa next na blank.
Highlight correct summary - Okay din mag-take ng konting keywords, nakatulong siya sakin.
Multiple choice, choose single answer - PRACTICE. use PTETUTORIALS. Okay din mag-take ng konting keywords, nakatulong siya sakin.
Select missing word - Makinig ng mabuti. CONTEXT is EVERYTHING.
Highlight incorrect words - Madali lang 'to. Habang nagsasalita yung speaker, yung mouse pointer mo sunod mo lang sa words na sinasabi niya, kapag may discrepancy sa sinasabi niya at sa texts sa screen, click mo lang agad.
Write from dictation - Makinig ng mabuti,
Overall, PRACTICE LANG AT TIME MANAGEMENT pagdating sa exam. As much as possible, 'wag na bumili ng review materials kasi madaming available online. E2Language lang and PTETUTORIALS enough na.
Kapag feeling mo hindi ka pa ready, practice lang ulit. Sa exam relax lang.
