    @Heprex Nagbibilin ang Pearson kung ano oras magpaakyat ng examinees. If you're taking the exam at 8am, at around 7am pwede na. Tell the guard na examinee ka, at wag ka aalis sa tapat ng entrance :D

    @Lexi agree. Good luck sa next take mo. Minsan Lang Kasi, you need to take any advantage that you can take. And getting computer 1 is not illegal naman :). Pero agree ako sa yo. Pang desperate moves Lang yung advice Ko. Go early or go late Na Lang :). Early para may chance to get station 1. Late para may chance to get the last station. You said naubusan ka ng Oras a listening? Yung listening is yung after the break, second part diba? May template ka for,listening? Payo Ko Lang Baka sakali gumana sa yo. Sa listening, diba you will type what you hear. Type mo Lang without minding the spelling. Correct mo spelling and grammar after matapos yung recording para di ka maiwan. Good luck again. Kaya mo yan

    @Lexi I also agree. May shinare din ko na nag-ninja moves during ng exam ko. Pang#9 ko tapos si kuya ninja mas nahuli pa sakin dumating. Then nung nagpapasok na sa reception area diretso n sya kuha ng no.1 queue slot. Hehe... Tapos during the exam beast mode din. akala nya sya lang examinee, walang pakialam sa iba, tsk tsk....

    @Heprex yup, pumasok lang ako then sabi ko pearson 8am. Ung pinakamaaga sa logbook, 6:50am ang in.

    Siguro sinuwerte nga lang kami na walang sumisigaw dun sa batch namin, pero I believe na magconcentrate ka lang sa pc mo. Try not to mind others.

    @xiaolico and @PCK, sinave ko na sa notes ko yung advices nyo. Salamat ng marami. @xiaolico Mukhang maganda yung hack mo sa retell at describe image. Susubukan ko yan kapag na-mental block ko sa exam. Pero practice parin ko using the templates. Salamat din sa mga nagbibigay ng encouragements, laking tulong talaga, kc di rin biro yung challenge ng pte lalo na sa mga x no. of takers. Apektado talaga lahat. Prayers, encouragements and your advices really help. Goodluck sa tin lahat.

    @2pe add ko din, sa describe image, make sure masabi mo lahat ng words na nakikita mo sa pic. In terms of yung numbers pag graph, kahit yung lowest at highest na Lang. Pero if wala ka na masabi, read the other numbers. No matter what, wag ka titigil until two ticks away na Lang yung blue bar timer from finishing

    hello po.. ask ko lang tungkol sa repeat sentence kasi mahina talaga ako sa pagmemorize.. lahat po ba sa inyo na nakakuha nang 90 sa speaking ay naulit niyo talaga yong words in verbatim accurately?

    @rhycka may tatlo ata ako Na di natinig. Tatlong sentence. I invented an answer Na Lang. First 3-4 words Lang naulit Ko. I think over 100 yung point system Nila, tas 90 highest possible score. Focus ka dun sa re tell lecture at describe image. Sa repeat sentence Kasi, to,be honest, Malaki luck factor. You can try what others did, write the first letter of every word that you hear

    Ako po yung nagtatanong before kung may chance ba na makapasa ako sa actual exam kung mababa yung MOCK TEST.

    Mock test A - LRSW - 75/56/54/74

    Nagtake ulit ako ng mock test B naman. And eto ang result ko..

    Mock test B - LRSW - 77/70/76/71

    Ang saya ko! Daig ko pa ang nakapasa sa tunay na test! Haha. Ang ginawa ko lang na iba sa reading e, parang may buhay at emotion yung pagbabasa ko. Na parang nag kukwento ka friend mo at excited ka sa mga sinasabi mo.

    At ang isa pa palang difference ay gumamit ako ng headset na maayos this time. Hindi na yung built in ng Mac.

    **** yun lang, sana magawa ko sa tunay na exam :)

    @DrAgKurt Ako I didn't use any templates. Pero I do suggest gumamit ka. Madaming mataas ang scores na may template. Di kasi ako sanay na may script. Mas ok ako pag improtu or parang random casual conversation Lang. Pero again you are going against a machine. Better to be and think like a robot if kaya
