Ganun na nga sa tingin ko hehehe, sa Listening ganun din eh, parang naiba yung sequence, swerte ko sa writing kasi isang essay lang. Sa Reading naman eh 2 jumbled question.
Tingin ko mas ok yung dropdown ng actual compared sa mock pero not so sure kasi sa mock eh 3 questions pa ng dropdown yung di ko natapos .

Reading:
one answer multiple choice - read the questions first then skim the paragraph.
Multilple answer multiple choice - cross out the wrong choices, or wrong answers. Tapos ung matitira ayun na mas likely ung answer.
Fill in the blanks - inaalam ko lang ung mas bagay dun sa mabubuo ko nasentence and consistent dapat dun sa message ng paragraph ung mapipili mo na word.
Jumbled- just like what i have said earlier, para syang puzzle. Hanapin mo lang ung linking words sa bawat sentence.
Sorry yan lang mapapayo ko, medyo mahilig talaga ako magbasa eh,hehe. Kaya siguro medyo naging ok ung part na toh sa akin.
Sa speaking: for those people na nagtatanung ng template.
Eto sikreto ko..from 48 sa 1st take naging 74 sa 2nd take.
Need mo lang magsabi ng minimum of 4 sentence, pansin ko kasi nung 1st take ko sa retell at describe image, wala ata ako nabuo na sentence kasi wala ako maisip na sasabihin..kasi pressured and all.
Kaya guys eto gagawin nyo..take note para sa mga nahirapan lang toh ah. Nakita ko na toh sa previous threads pero ginamit ko sya in my advantage.
"The graph/chart/table is well structured, thus provides accuracy and conciseness"
Ano napansin nyo, dinescribe ko lang di ko sya inenterpret..kaya ang ginawa ko bago palang ako magpunta sa test center madami na ako nakabisado na template sentences. Regardless ano itsura ng graph ayun lang sasabihin ko. Describe the image sya...hindi naman interpret the the results.
Gumawa din ako conclusion na standard, na regadless na ano lumabas yun pa din sasabihin ko.
Sympre mas maganda kung masasabi mo lowest, and highest value. Pero pag wala ka na tlga masabi, kailangn may ready ka na natemplate. Kasi part ng grade ang fluency.

@kate27,
Hehe parang memorize kona rin yung sasabihin ko sa intro ng describe image kakapanood nung video dito about sa graphs, meron din pala lumabas sakin na continent ng Africa sa describe image, baka lumabas senyo.
@Misterkehn,
Oo nag pa sched nako ulit agad, nag kakaubusan ng sched dito eh, baka mawala ako sa momentum hehehe.
@NicoDC,
Thanks sa tips bro, nabasa ko nga sa multiple choice single at multiple answer eh wag muna basahin yung choices, question lang talaga at absorb yung passage. Maiksi lang naman yung passage kaya magegets din basta practice.
Focus ko ngayon Reading at some academic words sa writing, mataas na kasi Written Discourse ko eh, palagi 90 both sa mock at actual, vocabulary nalang and grammar. Baka maka sulot pa ng all 79 eheheh
@chapoy,
Baka naman perfect ka? Ganyan daw mga perfect matagal kasi nirereview daw ng tao

Gets kona hehe, kaso ang dami, kuha nalang siguro ng ilang words, tapos i incorporate sa essay or summarize paragraph.
Mga ilan ba kinabisado mo?
@eischied_21
Parang ganito rin ginawa ko, pinapalitan ko nalang kung graph yun or line graph or continent or picture then kwento ng kahit ano makita sa graph, basta slow lang para madami maisip while speaking at maiwasan ang mistake.
@wingleaf,
Pwede mo pag practisan yung macmillan tapos kung may extra ka eh yung mock exam, meron din naman yung offline para ma familiar ka lang sa format ng exam. Sa actual exam eh mabilis nga talaga yung phasing sabi ng iba dito. Meron part sa speaking nasa answer short question na pala ako pero akala ko nasa repeat sentence pa. Ayun inulit ko yung sinabi ng computer instead na sagutin ko. Lolz.

1. nung nag-exam ako, iba yung sequence ng test, so nalito ako lalo na sa listening haha.. so ang marerecommend ko is, since before mag-start yung section, nakalagay yung sequence (na hindi ko pinansin during the actual exam haha, nag-next ako kasi akala ko alam ko na haha), isulat dun sa notebook.. eto yung magiging guide natin para hindi na kelangan basahin yung instructions at focus na lang sa question/answer..
2. naka-90 ako sa writing. di ko hinabaan sagot ko, inaabot ko lang yung minimum.. for example, 30-70 words, 30-35 lang sagot ko.. dun sa essay na 200-300 words, less than 210 lang sinulat ko.. dun sa 1-sentence summary, di ako gumamit ng semicolon (kasi di ko sure pano gamitin yun haha).. so ang advice ko is wag na mag-take time pahabain ang sagot.. during the actual exam, mas ok to spend time sa pag review ng tamang grammar, spelling, punctuation, vocabulary.. as in mag-allot ng at least 2mins for that..
good luck sa ating lahat always pray
