    @supermadi May nabasa ako sa kabilang forum na naglodge ng application ng July 5 and nacontact today dahil mismatched ang pangalan nya sa documents. Mukhang nagrereview naman sila ng applications, wala nga lang invitations.

    PTE Writing Tips

    For writing essay I used E2 language format and applying what I learned from Ielts. Sa intro, sa 1st sentence ni restate ko lang yung question using my own words. Then sa 2nd sentence if one sided lang yung question, I give summary of the reasons ( 2 reasons only). Example, if ang essay is about importance of computers (one sided), eto 2nd sentence ko. Computers are valuable resources as they (1st reason) aid in learning and are (2nd reason) used to communicate with others. Then sa 3rd sentence sasabihin ko para pampahaba-- In this essay, I shall discuss my point of view by giving points and examples about the topic.

    Then sa 2nd paragraph, elaborate ko na ang 1St reason. Mga 2 sentences na magsupport sa 1st reason, like if yung 1st reason ko is aid in learning, expand ko ang topic by answering how computers aid in learning,etc. Usually yung reason mo convert mo by asking how, what, when, or who. Tapos sa 3rd sentence, I state examples. Pwede ka din mag add pa ng 4th sentence parang isummarize mo lang ang 2nd paragraph.

    Sa 3rd paragraph discuss naman ang 3rd reason same sa ginawa sa 2nd par.

    4Th paragraph 1st sentence conclusion, then 2nd sentence recommendation.

    If 2 sided naman yung intro pwede mo gamitin yung nasa template like kina Heprex na samples. Then yung 2nd par yung kabilang side, then yung 3rd paragraph yung other side. Tapos same last paragraph.

    If medyo nahihirapan ka sa mga ideas, research ka dito sa forum ng mga recent topics. Tapos based dun sa topic reasearch ka anong pwedeng maging points and reasons para may idea ka na ano ilalagay mo sa essay.

    Ang key talaga sa writing is dapat marami ka ideas. If nahihirapan ka mag construct ng idea try to research as much as possible. Google mo yung mga common or recent topics on pte writing tapos may mga sample questions dun,, then research mo ano possible answers para sa actual exam may idea kana ano isasagot. Tapos dpat familiarize mo mga connectors (like moreover, therefore, for instance, etc) kasi mas mataas ang grade kapag medyo complex ang sentence na ginagamit mo kesa simple sentences lang.

    For summarize written text strategy ko is to first get ano main topic. Then analyze what important points were given, may nangyari ba? If meron ano ang nangyari, kelan nangyari? ano at para kanino ang purpose? Usually kasi sa mga paragraphs naka detail lang pero yung point lang naman dun is parang dinedescribe lang yung main topic. If you can answer who/what, when, how and why about the topic pwede mo na pagdugtungin yung ideas mo thru connectors and form a sentence. If you will have multiple paragraphs, summarize mo muna per paragraph then summarize mo ulit lahat in one sentence

    Another tip also in writing as much as possible do not repeat the same words. If you dont have much stored knowledge about synonyms okay lang. Practice and Research is the key. Kaya malaki ang help sa akin yung pag research sa mga common or recent topics kasi while practicing pwede akong mghanap ng synonyms then mas madali ko syang ma recall sa actual exam kasi nagawa ko na sya before. Tapos if meron kayong word na ma encounter na parang hirap kayo mag elaborate, google nyo din anong synonym or phrases na pwedeng same meaning ng word. Share ko yung nilista kong mga synonyms na possible na magagamit sa mga essay kasi minsan these are the topics commonly asked.

    @kimpoy parehas tayo ng nangyari, what I did was gumawa ako ng bagong application so meaning 2 ang application ko. Isa yung nagkaerror which is stuck at "Payment in Progress" at yung isa ay bayad na kaya "Lodged" na ang nakalagay. Nag e-mail nalang ako sa kanila sa nangyari sakin at sinabi ko iproproceed ko yung "Lodged" application ko. Mahirap na kasi baka maubusan pa ako ng slots kakaintay sa reply nila. :)

    Just an update, nagreply na sa e-mail and they have said na tama nga yung ginawa ko. Just ignore the initial application as long as lodged na yung bago mo :)

    @beetle00 Ganun na din yung ginawa ko. Gumawa ako ng new application then binayaran ko. Then after ilang oras nakareceived ako ng email regarding my 1st application tapos may option na pwede ng bayaran to push thru with the lodging. Ignore ko na lang yung 1st application kasi indicated that it will be deleted after 7 days without receiving any payment. Baka madami lang mga nagsasubmit ng application kaya may lag yung system nila.

    @chococrinkle pwede po bang magtanong? usually nung nag file ng 489 for SA inalis mo ba yung 190 applicaiton nyo sa ibang states? Kasi sa part ko 489 ang pwede i apply pero may mga EOI ako for 190 visa to NSW and Victoria. Any inputs po? Iniisip ko mag withdraw ng other EOI pag naka tanggap na ng pre invite.What do yout think po? Salamat din po sa inputs ng iba :)

    @supermadi For state sponsored visa medyo mataas na chance of approval kasi it was already pre checked by the state. SA is asking for documents already when applying for State nomination so they have already assessed your docs, and based on experience with SA they advise when they see something wrong sa EOI. As long as you did not overclaim points and you submit all documents pertaining to the occupation, most likely you’ll get your visa grant. God bless you.

    PTE Writing Tips

    For writing essay I used E2 language format and applying what I learned from Ielts. Sa intro, sa 1st sentence ni restate ko lang yung question using my own words. Then sa 2nd sentence if one sided lang yung question, I give summary of the reasons ( 2 reasons only). Example, if ang essay is about importance of computers (one sided), eto 2nd sentence ko. Computers are valuable resources as they (1st reason) aid in learning and are (2nd reason) used to communicate with others. Then sa 3rd sentence sasabihin ko para pampahaba-- In this essay, I shall discuss my point of view by giving points and examples about the topic.

    Then sa 2nd paragraph, elaborate ko na ang 1St reason. Mga 2 sentences na magsupport sa 1st reason, like if yung 1st reason ko is aid in learning, expand ko ang topic by answering how computers aid in learning,etc. Usually yung reason mo convert mo by asking how, what, when, or who. Tapos sa 3rd sentence, I state examples. Pwede ka din mag add pa ng 4th sentence parang isummarize mo lang ang 2nd paragraph.

    Sa 3rd paragraph discuss naman ang 3rd reason same sa ginawa sa 2nd par.

    4Th paragraph 1st sentence conclusion, then 2nd sentence recommendation.

    If 2 sided naman yung intro pwede mo gamitin yung nasa template like kina Heprex na samples. Then yung 2nd par yung kabilang side, then yung 3rd paragraph yung other side. Tapos same last paragraph.

    If medyo nahihirapan ka sa mga ideas, research ka dito sa forum ng mga recent topics. Tapos based dun sa topic reasearch ka anong pwedeng maging points and reasons para may idea ka na ano ilalagay mo sa essay.

    Ang key talaga sa writing is dapat marami ka ideas. If nahihirapan ka mag construct ng idea try to research as much as possible. Google mo yung mga common or recent topics on pte writing tapos may mga sample questions dun,, then research mo ano possible answers para sa actual exam may idea kana ano isasagot. Tapos dpat familiarize mo mga connectors (like moreover, therefore, for instance, etc) kasi mas mataas ang grade kapag medyo complex ang sentence na ginagamit mo kesa simple sentences lang.

    For summarize written text strategy ko is to first get ano main topic. Then analyze what important points were given, may nangyari ba? If meron ano ang nangyari, kelan nangyari? ano at para kanino ang purpose? Usually kasi sa mga paragraphs naka detail lang pero yung point lang naman dun is parang dinedescribe lang yung main topic. If you can answer who/what, when, how and why about the topic pwede mo na pagdugtungin yung ideas mo thru connectors and form a sentence. If you will have multiple paragraphs, summarize mo muna per paragraph then summarize mo ulit lahat in one sentence

    Another tip also in writing as much as possible do not repeat the same words. If you dont have much stored knowledge about synonyms okay lang. Practice and Research is the key. Kaya malaki ang help sa akin yung pag research sa mga common or recent topics kasi while practicing pwede akong mghanap ng synonyms then mas madali ko syang ma recall sa actual exam kasi nagawa ko na sya before. Tapos if meron kayong word na ma encounter na parang hirap kayo mag elaborate, google nyo din anong synonym or phrases na pwedeng same meaning ng word. Share ko yung nilista kong mga synonyms na possible na magagamit sa mga essay kasi minsan these are the topics commonly asked.

    @chococrinkle Thank you po sa clarification. Lahat naman po ng hiningi samen napasa na namen. Sana nga po tuloy tuloy na. Based on experience po, how long does it usually take po for the grant? Nabasa ko po sa website kasi for 489 parang 7-10 months.

    @supermadi @chococrinkle state sponsorship doesn’t really give one an indication na mataas chance of approval. 189, 190 and 489, or any skilled visa have the same chances of approval/refusal when it comes to visa application stage. The usual cause of unsuccessful application at the latter part is either health or character issues which would not have been identified in the prior stages. Good luck!

    @Pandabelle0405 Walang pre-invite sa SA kasi ang process dun is kailangan talaga magsubmit ng separate application directly sa SA pagkatapos magsubmit ng EOI. Tapos SA will make a decision based on the application na sinubmit sa kanila. Hindi ako familiar sa Victoria pero sa SA ang processing time is 15-20 weeks.
