Just got my results in 1 hour after taking the exam.
Medyo sinuwerte, Malakas kutob ko na proficient lang ang kinaya ko sa exam dahil sa listening but viola!
Maraming salamat sa mga tips dito sobrang laking tulong!
Exam experience:
Mejo panget para saken ung quality ng output nung headphone siguro kasi high quality ung gamit ko na headphone sa bahay but anyway yung mic talagang may noise cancellation. Pagdating naman sa exam itself, ung difficulty nya parang mas madali compared sa apeuni lalo na ung sa reading section. During my review, sa reading ako lagi bagsak sa apeuni, di ako umaabot ng 75+ pero sa actual exam mas madali. Yung vocabulary na ginamit hindi ganun ka lalim like sa apeuni. Sobrang hirap tlga sa APEUNI un lang masasabi ko, never ako naging superior during my review. Kung makakuha man ako 79 up on a certain band, talagang may below 79 sa ibang bands.
When it comes to templates during exam, parang combination ni anusha, jimmysem and apeuni ang ginamit ko. mukang gumana naman
My learning technique and observation sa apeuni:
Ang ginawa ko is nag subscribe ako sa apeuni(30days) then unli mocktest. Bale ung inital mocktest ko parang familiarization lang sa question types then inassess ko sarili ko kung san ako mahina na question type then thats the time i went to youtube (anusha and jimmysem) para makakuha ng tips and tricks.Then everyday mocktest ako minsan twice a day pero minimum ko maka isang mocktest kada araw.
Napansin ko din na ung sa speaking(RA / RS) ni apeuni may hinahanap syang keywords na predefined na dapat mong mabanggit (makikita mo sa suggested answer) so kahit napakahusay ng english mo or ginamit mo ung anusha and jimmysem template tapos di tumama sa keywords na nandudun, negatib ang magiging result or mababa.
Maraming salamat uli sa mga tips dito! Mabuhay kayo

Hello guys, planning to up my PTE scores after I receive my skills assessment in a couple of months. Last time kasi proficient lang ang result. and sa Speaking po talaga ako sobrang baba (70 😭). I'm not sure pero I think it has something to do with my mic position. Have bought mocktests from PTE mismo and aced 2 mock test exams at 90 both sa speaking, kaso pagdating sa exam, bagsak. Any tips when it comes to the mic position po? Btw singkit and medyo soft po ang boses ko haha. Thanks everyone!

For mic position, you may check ung instruction sa pte website. I followed Jimmysem's tip which is to place it parallel to your lips and yung tips & tricks nya sa speaking, watch nyo din po. I got 90 sa speaking 3 times with these tips.

Took the exam this afternoon and got 90 in speaking. I used Jimmysem’s template for DI.

I took PTE the second time last Dec 26 using Jimmy's RL and DI template.. b
However I only got 65 in Speaking. How did you end the last sentence? Doon kasi sa template, "Finally, keyword1, hanggang keyword n" like mga 10 siguro or more ang sinabi ko. Is it wrong?
