@jample yes gngamit ko dragon dictation

ysabelle · October 2016

i will be taking the pte exam next month. any tips?

mirmodepon · October 2016

@jample sa pag check ng mic dapat wala maxadong hangin. ung paglagay ko ng mic nung nag exam ako nsa ibaba xa ng lower lip. try mo magbasa ng kunwari "international money transfer" assess mo kung may hangin ba o wala then kung clear ung boses. kung wala ng hangin try mo na lng ilakas pa ng konti ung boses mo if mahina sa mic.

sa describe image at re tell lecture. gumamit ako ng template then lowest at highest lang then conclusion. wag mo na sabhn ung iba pang content ng graph. focus ka lng sa lowest and highest kahit na mali mali ung cnsabi mo. ang importante dito mamaintain mo ung fluency and pronunciation dapat tama. again dapat pababa ung intonation pag may comma na or full stop. wag mo gayahin ung mga aussie na parang patanong ung intonation sa dulo. lol

nakuha ko lang din dito tong templates ko, again focus ka sa templates mo at kabisaduhin mo para ung fluency ok na ok.

Graph: (eto introduction mo lagi as in kahit anung graph)
The (graph) projected on the screen is the presentation of variables from research entitled.... basahin mo lang ung title saken kc binbasa ko lang kung anu nakalagay na dun mismo minsan sinisingitan ko lang ng ilang words like between or in a year of etc.

eto ung main body mo: the highgest figure is... while the lowest figure is in form of.. yan lang lagi mo sabhn again maintain mo fluency mo wag ka mag stop stop or mag pause.

conclusion mo: mamili ka sa dalawa
1. overall, it can be seen that blah and blah are both increase in rate but blah remained at a higher rate through out this time.
2. this graph was accurate and concise and it can be use as a reference with the same objective. ----> gamitin mo to pag ung oras mo eh nsa 30 secs. ka na nagsalita. kung mejo mahaba pa ung #1 ang gamitin mo.

yan lang gamitin mo sa describe image. same lang to sa ibang tips na nabasa ko dito.

sa re-tell lecture nman eto ginamit ko (nkita ko lang din to sa tips ng isang nag upload nito. i forgot kung anung username pero salamat sayo haha)

The lecturer provided brief information about... and a significant amount of time was spent discussing around this topic.

The speaker also concluded after all the data points were discussed completely.

To summarize his analysis, he point out that... in addition..

nsa 30 seconds na ata yan. so ung mga points na sinulat mo sabhn mo na lang.

kinabasido ko lahat yan. fluency and pronunciation not the content nman ang sa speaking. kaya nagfocus lang ako sa read aloud kung anung technique dapat so un nakuha ko kaya mataas ung speaking score ko sa actual at mock.

yan na lahat ng tips ko sa speaking part. haha

@argelflores in this case. writing ka magfocus.

vocabulary and grammar dun ka mag focus.

sa written discourse make sure 4 paragraphs. andun ung introduction then body1 make sure may example ka dito kahit na hindi nila hingiin ung example same din sa body2. sa conclusion gumawa ka ang conclusion na pang general. sa part ko kasi 2 essay ung napunta saken sa actual. 90 ang written discourse ko.

sa vocabulary make sure gumamit ka ng mga academic words/collocations. tataas yan cgurado ako. meron sa site ng pte ung mga words. download mo un. kumuha ka ng mga words na pwede mong gamitin. kasi di mo nman mamemorize lahat un. ung score ko sa vocabulary nsa 87 nung gumamit ako mga words dun sa pte.

goodluck!

@kokoc sa NSW din ako. andito ako sa kogarah hehe. uwi ako pinas sa 29 prang meron pa ata ako kulang sa requirements. hopefully mabigyan agad ng letter from ahpra para maka pag start na ng bridging.

ang ginawa ko pre sa speaking lahat ng intonation pag may comma at full stop dapat pababa. pag may comma wag mo maxado magstop kumbaga parang .5 sec lang ung pag pause. pag full stop mga 1.5 sec lang ung pag pause.

may feelings ung pag babasa ko pero ung flow ng pagbabasa ko tuloy tuloy na parang ubusin mo ung hangin mo hanggat walang stop or comma. ganun gnawa ko. 54 ung fluency ko na pra akong newscaster nung first take ko pero nung ginamit ko to naging 74. wag mo maxadong diinan ung pagbigkas ng words na dapat iemphasize. natural lang at relax. mag upload ako ng sample. lol. pero di ko alam panu mag upload dito.

mirmodepon · October 2016

@Pretsels goodluck ah!. message ka dito kung andito ka na ako tour guide mo lol!. or kita kita tau pag andito na kau lahat! haha.

mirmodepon · October 2016

@argelflores make sure din pala na tinitingnan mo na ung spelling ng tinatype mo para kahit maubusan ka ng oras atleast mataas spelling mo. yan nga lang consistent kong 90 sa enabling skills from 1st to 2nd take. haha.

sa summarize written text eto ginawa ko:

who did what when where why

yan lang lagi iniicp ko.

sa listening nman ung re tell lecture dun gumamit ka lagi ng complex sentence. laging complex sentence wag ka na gumamit ng simple sentence.

sa mga nahihirapan namn sa repeat sentence. di na ko nagfocus dito kc alam kong magkakamali mali nman ako dito haha. pero nung nsa exam na ko bigla ko nakahanap ng strategy na matatandaan ko lahat ng words na cnbi. ang ginawa ko tinatype ko kunwari ung narinig ko then saka ko xa cnsabi nakuha ko tong strategy na to under ng listening ung itatype mo nman ung cnsabi nung nagsasalita. mas madali ko kc natatandaan pag tinatype ko prang nag ssplit ung utak ko. haha.

@mirmodepon pwedeng sa reading din pls.

mirmodepon · October 2016

@michel_75 sa reading naman. sa choose one answer basahin mo ung tanong wag mo muna basahin ung choices. ginwa ko ginamit ko ung marker ginwa kong parang papel ung screen ng computer pinagguguhitan ko ung screen mas madali kasi alam mo na ung keywords pag may mark. haha. kabaligtaran nman sa choose multiple answer. basahin mo ung question then basahin mo ung choices. make sure naintindihan mo ung choices.

@jample. This coming Monday na exam ko at ng wife ko sa Makati

WAHM · October 2016

Kaye28 · October 2016

hello po..cnu po dito ang PTE A test takers in sg? I just want to know which of the two test centers is better, the one in International Plaza or RELC? I just got my IELTS result yesterday. Sadly, I failed to get at least 7 in my Speaking test, I was short of 0.5

. Then on that same day, one of my friends told me about PTE A. So I started to backread here. Un nga lang medyo sumakit na mata ko kakabasa maghapon..hahaha...and so far I have not read anything about the test centers here in SG. I initially intend to get my Speaking Test remarked but then it will take at least 8 weeks and no assurance pa. I got inspired with all the success stories here so I decided to follow the rest of the PTE takers...Fully booked na kc ung sa International Plaza this Oct. I want to take PTE A after I review for 2 weeks cguro. RELC na lang may availabble slot but I do not personally know anyone who had taken the test there. Hope to hear from anyone who did.

argelflores · October 2016

mirmodepon · October 2016

@michel_75 fill in the blank basahin muna ung paragraph. then dun mo malalaman ung tamang sagot. sa re order paragraph nman hanapin mo ung parang conclusion un ung huli then ung una naman un ung may topic ng buong paragraph.

mirmodepon · October 2016

@argelflores tumaas na scores mo ah. konting practice pa. mababa scores ko sa mock pero mataas nakuha ko nung actual.

Asha · October 2016

Sa mga test takers, just do your best sa review and be confident sa pag exam. And if you were not able to get the scores you need sa first try nyo, never be shaken. Take lang ulit. You will eventually get it. God bless us all sa ating Australian dream.
