bjsad214 · January 2017

@j_fangonilo ang alam ko walang discount sa pte scored mock test

2pe · January 2017

@j_fangonilo I agree with @bjsad214. Nagtry nako magsearch ng promocode before but to no avail. Yung price kc sa PTE site is already discounted.

@Skye24 hi! Newbie here. Nagtake din ako PTE exam kanina sa Makati and like you nag aabang din ng reportable scores online. Anyway same din nakikita ko sa Pearson acct ko. Not available pa daw.. hindi nga ako makatulog. This is my second English proficiency exam na kasi.. the first one was IELTS, 7.5 overall rating ko but sadly may 6.5 ako sa reading. So ayun nagtry ako ulit but Pearson na this time kasi may nag advise sakin na mas malaki daw chance na makakiha ng superior rating.. hoping for the best. Goodluck to us!

@bjsad214 hi I got my result and I have to retake nanaman dahil sa speaking... Guys patulong naman my 1st take scores was L61 R60 S49 W68 tapos etong 2nd take ko L73 R70 S59 W77... Mababa oral fluency ko 41 at 49 pero pagkakatanda ko minimal ang pause ko talaga... Hindi ko na alam anong problema..

miranda82 · January 2017

@Skye24 same tayo..overall score ko 80 LRSW 82/86/56/90. Mangiyak ngiyak ako sa result g speaking ko.. oral fluency ko is 41 lang and pronunciation 60. Di ko mawari bakit ganun.. Di ko iniexpect yun kasi alam ko maayos naman speaking ko..

miranda82 · January 2017

Pwede bang iapela yung result?

bjsad214 · January 2017

@miranda82 @Skye24 I also got mine, but unfortunately hindi rin ako nakapasa for the first take. L63 R63 S44 W75

For the speaking (OF37 & PR35), bakit kya ganito? Sobrang baba naman kahit spontaneous naman ung pagsasalita ko (except sa may naririnig akong hangin sa headset, na sabi nmn ng test admin ay normal lang nmn daw).

Dahil sa cases naten hindi ko maiwasang matanong. Nagwowork pa kaya yung mga standard templates or somehow nadedetect na rin ng PTE/computer yun. Hmm. Anyone kumuha rin recently and positive ang result sa speaking? Please help us po. Salamat.

Skye24 · January 2017

@miranda82 hi mukhang mahirap iapela yung ganyang score maybe if 64 yan.. Tingin ko oral fluency dumale sau parang sakin.. Dami ganyan dito ang tataas na speaking talaga sumasabit... Magretake kaba? Im planning to retake on jan 30 or feb 1... Pero kausapin ko muna yung agent ng university na target ko sa australia...

Skye24 · January 2017

Guys kung sino dito nkakuha ng 90 sa speaking please help us! I took ielts 2x, oet 2x I passed naman kaso mali ko ung 2nd take ko hindi ko kinuha lahat.. writing lang resit ko dpat resit all.. And 2x pte na.. Nakakasira na ng tiwala sa sarili... Nakakapagod na magaral at bumagsak... Nawithdraw na application ko sa australia... Paexpire na ICHC ko sa 15... Nakakadrain na...

miranda82 · January 2017

@Skye24 pinag iisipan ko pa kung kelan ako magriretake. Ambigat din kasi sa bulsa..

batman · January 2017

@Skye24 @bjsad214 @miranda82 sorry to hear about your scores. Question is how far you will go for your Australian dream?

Keep trying guys, and umaayaw ay di nagwawagi. aral pa nang mabuti. makinig ng bbc cnn ted talks podcast lahat gawin nyo na. kong nagawa ng iba magagawa nyo din, wag mawalan ng hope. wag kalimutan din ang prayers.

PCK · January 2017

Hi guys, silent reader lang ako for the past few months dito. I'll be sharing my experience and tips later, sobrang laking tulong nung mga nagshare ng templates and experience dito so sana makatulong din ako.

Nagtake ako nung jan. 9 and I can attest na nagwowork ung templates sa speaking.

freakazaa · January 2017

@Skye24 Baka pwede kayo magbigay ng samples nyo para malaman namin kung ano possible mali nyo? Bigay kayo ng sentence for read aloud then provide a recording. Same din sa describe image.

bjsad214 · January 2017

@freakazaa and everyone in this loop, eto po sample recording ko. This is recorded during the scored mock test B. I believe mas okay ako during the actual exam.

bjsad214 · January 2017

Hi @PCK looking forward sa sharing mu. Salamat.

Heprex · January 2017

@bjsad214 Okay naman recording, though for me, medyo mabagal sya. Do you click next pag tapos ka na?

@Skye24 @miranda82 ano mga template ginamit nyo?

anonymousprincess · January 2017

Hello!! Newbie here. Pwede po pasend din po ako ng review materials nyo po?

freakazaa · January 2017

@bjsad214 eto mga comments ko sa recording mo:
- parang mejo nag he-hesitate ka.
- nag stutter ka before saying doctor. Any reason why?
- mejo off yung pronunciation mo. Specifically these words: fast, balance, staff. Letter A sa words na yan dapat parang 'ae' hindi 'uh'. Sa words like legal, stress mo yung e na parang 'ee'
- commas = half pauses, periods = full stops

Eto recording ko nung sentence mo. Pasensya na sa sound quality hahaha nagddrive ako eh.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B3WkIVufGvawRXBYUFF0NTVoQUk/view?usp=drivesdk

Yung reviewers na ginamit ko like MacMillan, meron mga sample recordings to compare. Helpful tong mga to. Try to google din mga pronunciation ng words na di ka confident.

Another tip, diba may timer before mag start yung recording? Dun pa lang nag read aloud na ko para ma practice before nung tunay na recording. This can help lessen stuttering due to hesitations kasi napasadahan mo na yung sentence.

Hope this helps! Kaya yan practice lang.

bjsad214 · January 2017

@Heprex binagalan ko yan actually kc ung una kong mock test binilisan ko umaabot lang ako 20 seconds so binagalan ko pra mreach around 25-30 seconds. Ayun, tumaas naman score ko.

@freakazaa di ko maaccess recording mo. Ayaw magplay. Try ko ulit. Anyways, ung sa doctor, the reason behind is nag scan kc husband ko from image gamit app so medyo natakpan nya ung binabasa ko nun. Check out ko ulit pronun ko sa mga words na yan. Thanks sa comments.

Also, ginagawa ko din na binabasa ko aloud ung sentence dun sa timer, pra alam naskim ko na sya at alam na ung thought nung sentences.

freakazaa · January 2017

@bjsad214 AMR yung file type ng recorder ng phone ko. Try mo play through VLC media player.

azn · January 2017

I would like to share sa experience ko. I think effective pag ang tone nang voice is natural not high pitch but clear to hear. Same tone kay @freakazaa.

vanessajoy · January 2017

guys meron pa ba kayong ibang strategy sa summarize written text aside dun sa e2 na who did what na mga template?salamat po

miranda82 · January 2017

@batman thank you.. Siguro I will try ng isa pa, kapag bagsak ulit baka nga my Australian dream is not meant to be.

Skye24 · January 2017

@freakazaa hi I will try mamaya magrecord isa sa nkita ko din mali ko ung read a loud ko mabilis ako matapos... Nagamit ko templates s describe image at re tell lec pero ung read a loud ko tingin ko malaki impact sakin kasi meron talaga mali nasabi ko and tingin ko din humihina boses ko...

Skye24 · January 2017

@batman hi halos d n nga ako tumitigil makinig sa bbc at ted talks pero nakatulong siya sa listening ko from 61 naging 73 ako kahit halos d ako nkapagpractice tests

Skye24 · January 2017

@Heprex hi ginamit ko template nyo dito lalo n sa describe image tapos s re tell lec din ung latest n nagpost dito un sinunod ko d ko na matandaan cno nagpost..actually bihira nga pause ko eh.. Mas ok nga speaking ko may improvement pero bitin from 49 naging 59 nga lang

freakazaa · January 2017

@Skye24 Oo malaki effect ng read aloud. Yan pati repeat sentence ang madaming items sa speaking portion.

sunshineee28 · January 2017

Hello po. Ask lng po ako sa mga recent test takers, anu po topic nyo sa essay? D po talaga ako confident sa writing kaya sana po my mgshare ng topic. Thanks po.

bjsad214 · January 2017

@freakazaa cge try ko later paguwi ko. Buksan ko sa laptop, ayaw sa phone eh. Baka magbook ulit ako for retake, oks lang ba like 3 weeks after today ibook ko na?
