Initial: L-8.0 R-7.5 S-7.5 W-6.0
After remarking: W-6.5
Suntok s buwan pero i took d little chance n mging 7.0 but im quite positive na kaya mag 6.5 base sa pakiramdam.
I suggest pg magpaparemark, always include Speaking and writing, wag lang either pra may added chance n my mabago either sa dlwa at ndi masayang ang pera. and tama ang iba, its not just wanting for a higher score, dpat alam ren s srli qng tlgang ang pakiramdam ay dapat mas mataas ang nakuhang score then ska ipursue ang remarking.
Im still reviewing for 2nd take though , while waiting for skill assessment result. Sayang ang time hehe.
Goodluck satin walang susuko basta pangarap.

remarking. I took the test twice already, but i still did not get the desired score i need.
First take result L - 5.5/ R - 6.5 /W - 6.5/S - 6.5. The next scores i got L - 7.5/ R - 6.5 /W
- 5.5/S - 6.5. I need atleast 6 in each band scores. I only need .5. I heard that writing can
be remarked, i want to take again for the 3rd time but unfortunately the next schedule for
GT will be on april 18 and ill be leaving the country for work this end of the month. What
do you think guys i should do best? my options is to re take the exam outside the
philippines since i dont have time to take the test in philippines on april. The next option
is i will take the risk of having my writing test to be remarked. What do you think i should
do? Thank you very much..Goodluck and Godbless us all.

You did complete both writing tasks right?
Go for it! To be safe, include Speaking for the remark in case, either writing or speaking changes, your payment will be refunded.
