Check mo yung kay Jay ng E2 language. Maganda yun technique nya doon. It was my weakness back then itong ROP. Haha. Pero baka kulang karin doon sa first time ng speaking part, kasi malaki ang bigay nun sa reading. Try to practice sa Apeuni and saguting un monthly or weekly test nila.

Hindi na eh. Pero to be honest, mas nadalian ako sa actual exam compared sa mock test and ApeUni tasks.
Tama si silverbullet, focus on the Big 4 which are Repeat Sentence, Read Aloud, Fill in the Blanks, and Write from Dictation.
Ang napansim ko during my actual exam, sobrang dami ng Fill in the Blanks sa Reading category. You might want to focus and gain score from that task.
Medyo nahirapan din ako sa Reading since yun ang pinakamababa ko at 83/90. For Listening, Speaking & Writing kasi I managed to get 90/90.
PS: Always pray na madali lang ang maibigay na questions sayo during your test day. Pray na lumabas din mga nireview mo. Tiwala lang po and have faith, God will help you.

Kailan po exam niyo? Sa November 18 ako haha! First test date after the changes that will happen on November 16 sa PTE. Sana gumana pa lahat ng templates.
And yes, tama sila. Focus on these 4 question types (listed in order of importance): Write From Dictation, Repeat Sentence, Read Aloud, and Fill In The Blanks (Read and Write).
Focusing on these doesn't mean you should not practice the other question types. Based sa mga nababasa ko, ito yung may mga malalaking weightage sa scores and they affect 2 strands. Sunod sa mga yan are SWT, SST, and Re-Tell Lecture.
Good luck sa atin!

So far po yung changes is decreased duration sa overall time (from 3 hours to 2 hours); so that means may mga test items na nagreduce ng number of questions. You can watch yung E2 Language PTE Update video on what specific question types yung nagreduce.

Just received my PTE exam results! Nag-take po ako kanina lang (November 18), 7:30am. Sa mga kasabayan ko diyan, grabe ang ingay pala talaga!!! HAHA NO OFFENSE! May isang babae dun kanina grabe ang ingay talaga huhu!
First take, naka-Superior po ako! Thank God need ko kasi ito to reach 70 points sa EOI.
Sa mga mag-ttake po, here are some of my personal observations and tips sa loob ng testing center:
1) Sa loob ng testing center, MAINGAY TALAGA. Kaya mag-practice po kayo with background noise (specifically this video: ). Dapat marunong din po kayo mag-zone out ng ingay.
2) Ang challenging lang talaga is the Speaking part. Lalo na ang daming maingay kanina (no offense kung kayo yun tapos kasabayan ko kayo kanina haha!)
3) Sa Reading and Listening, wag masyadong mag-focus sa mga Multiple Choice questions kasi nakakakain ng time yun.
Experiences with the test:
1) Ang dami kong stutter sa RA (siguro mga 3 items), same with RS (2-3 items din) pero for some reason naka-90 pa din ako sa Speaking di ko ineexpect haha!
2) Challenging ng kaunti yung Reading section sa test ko, kaya yun yung pinaka-mababa ko. Pero at least, Superior pa din.
3) Feel ko nakabawi ako sa WFD, kasi na-perfect ko siya. So maganda din na mabilis kayo mag-type para ma-type niyo as you're hearing the audio.
Good luck po sa mga mag-ttake!

Wow. Congrats! Ang taas.
Maingay nga talaga sa testing center. May 2 instances na nadala ako sa ingay kaya nabulol ako sa isang RA and nalimot ko ng slight yung template sa isang DI.
Focus talaga on your OWN exam. Wag makinig sa performance ng iba.

Salamat po! Opo nakakadistract nga, lalo na ang daming gumagamit nung JimmySsem na templates for DI and RL kaya sobrang mabubulabog ka. Kaya need talaga mag-practice with noise para matuto kang mag-zone out ng ingay.

Thank you po! Hindi na po required ang face shield. For the templates, ginamit ko po yung kay JimmySsem for DI and RL, pero nag-add ako ng kakaunting words para full of thought at hindi puro keywords. Bale ganito po ginamit ko:
"The given image is about interesting topics based on many different categories. Firstly we can see that the image can show a major point which is connected to our society, so it is fair to say that it is important. In addition, the given (graph/chart/picture) ** provides us with the information about **(title of graph/chart/picture) ** for **(kung may years, then years; kung may breakdown ng categories, then categories) measured in (yung measure ng graph, kung percent or number). Overall this image is very informative."
Same din po with re-tell lecture, pero mostly keywords na ginagamit ko dun pero may added context pa din like "He discussed (keyword1). He also discussed things like (keyword2,3,4,5), as well as (keyword6,7,8,etc)"

Nung nagbu-book po kasi ako ng schedule, yung pinaka-maaga kong nakita is November 18, which was 1 and a half months from the day I booked. So I spent po every day studying for it na.
For full PTE skills practice, you can use ApeUni.com pero ang ginamit ko talaga is LanguageAcademy.com.au. Meron silang weekly question predictions and may ibang lumabas sa exam ko, lalo na sa Reading section. May libreng mock test pa when you sign up

Salamat po! Yes po, kay JimmySsem na DI and RL na templates.
Ang ma-share ko po is don't focus on these modules kasi nung nagka-change sa PTE nung November 16 onwards, bumaba yung items ng DI from 5-6, naging 3-4, at yung RL from 3-4, naging 1-2. Dun po sa exam ko, 3 na DI lang ang na-encounter ko and 1 lang na RL. Yung RA and RS po, hindi bumaba yung number of items.
Yung DI and RL madali nalang kasi may templates pero dapat todo practice po kayo sa RA and RS kasi yun yung may pinakamalaking weights sa Speaking and other strands tapos hindi pa nag-reduce yung number of items.
You can use languageacademy.com.au po for all skills practice. Diyan ko po talaga napractice yung RA and RS kasi makikita niyo din po yung fluency and pronunciation scores niyo. Also FYI po, according sa mga PTE tutors, mas malaki ang hatak ng fluency sa score compared sa pronunciation. Kaya dapat as much as possible, speak naturally and without any pauses.
