    Regards,

    I got my scores na!

    Listening - 8.5
    Reading - 9
    Writing - 8
    Speaking - 7

    Overall - 8 :)

    Sayang yung speaking, d pa nakisali. Haha! Anyway happy kasi sakto 60 points ako for visa 189.

    Tip ko lang sa future takers,feeling ko kaya 7 lang ako sa speaking kasi d ako gumamit ng idioms. Saka d din ako gumamit ng mga palabok words like firstly,furthermore, lastly ek ek.

    Hello! SG taker din ako:) nov 27 pte-a ko failed sa speaking. last Dec 12 i tried ielts and got my results today- L9/R7.5/W7/S8 overall 8. BC ako nag take so i guess depende sa examiner kasi mabait yung sa akin... naka smile and nakipag interact sya like 'yes, i agree', 'right...' So di ako masyado nailang makipagusap. Ace the ielts ang ginamit kong reviewer plus podcasts, youtube vids and actual practice in speaking
