  ganun po ba...ung PTE ba ay acceptable for skilled independent category? SA profession ko kasi need ng 7 ielts score in every skills which i assumed makukuha ko naman, however just having second thought on score of 8 for every skills for migration purposes.
  
  In this case i would take PTE to get the score of 8 instead, would this be acceptable?

  @chellequebec .. for skilled migration the minimum requirement is to have 7.0 in all areas.. however, people are trying to hit band 8 kung kulang sila sa minimum 60 pts.. or gusto pa nila magpataas ng score para mas mabilis ma invite.... btw.. why do you need band 8?

  What you can do siguro is take ielts and aim for 8, but if you get 7 then submit mo lang para sa assessment ng assessing body. Then mag pte ka aim for 79+ for more points pag magaaply kna ng eoi.
