    Hello po! may ask lang ako.. sa Monday na ang exam ko.. nasstress at nagpapanic na ako kasi ito yung mock exam results ko:

    Mock exam A (taken last week) Mock exam B (taken today)
    Communicative Skills
    Listening 73 - 76
    Reading 62 - 63
    Speaking 51 - 56
    Writing 80 - 78

    Enabling Skills
    Grammar 83 - 90
    Oral Fluency 49 - 51
    Pronunciation 34 -30
    Spelling 90 - 90
    Vocabulary 79 - 90
    Written Discourse 90 - 90

    Nagimprove ng konti ang speaking pero bumaba naman ako sa writing... hayst..
    Bali ung una ko gnamit ko headset ng iPhone... ung ngayon tinanggal ko kasi pag nagssample ako too loud lagi... so ndi ko alam if dahil dun ba or talagang soplak ako sa speaking... haha... ung bar po ba sa gilid pag nageexam ung may green and red indication ba un na masyadong malakas pag red? dpat ba imaintain ko lagi sa green level? or wla naman effect un?

    Tapos po pala. ung practice ko is ung voice to text ni chrome.. so todo binubuka ko na bibig ko at ineemphasize ko mga "t" , "ed" ganyan kasi pra marecognize ng speech to text. then inapply ko sa speaking so nagimproved naman pero ndi ko lang alam if ganon ba dpat or tlgang natural lang... hehe

    thanks! panic mode na tlga ito...

    @dorbsdee as the words needed is specified, do not attempt to exceed the word limit in making essays lagi. Kasi, error ko yan kaya bumaba writing ko sa actual test. May effect sa score pag na exceed mo as instructed. You may just optimize the words without losing its essence, fit mo lang exactly para chances of point credit is high.

    Sa written text naman, if sinabi na one sentence summary lang, same applies. Basta follow what is instructed.

    @crosshair17 don't worry about that. Sakin din automatic nag send. Kung ano naman ideclare mo number sa application mo yun ang iaccess ng dibp ;)

    Btw, para sa mga test takers na mataas sa speaking. Pano po ginawa nyo sa Read aloud section? Mabilis ba? May mga nagsasabi kasi na dapat half the time mo sya matapos. I can't remember what I did during my first take, hehehe. Medyo lutang kasi noon.
