PTE ACADEMIC

Krisian · September 2017

hi guys, already got my score yesterday, sadly i got only 35 in speaking. Baka lang po may maka-help sakin, last monday kasi i was confident kasi nga i memorized the templates and practiced a lot particularly yung mga past tense na verbs. I was thinking then na somehow i can get a high score in speaking, kasi compared to my first exam i didnt mess up. I dont know if my issue yung mic positioning since same lang yung position ung ginawa ko, nasa nose level yung mic ko, and malakas din voice ko. hays.. sana may makatulong sakin, speaking lang po yung issue ko and i am really frustrated now

2nd take:
Speaking: 35
OF: 42 Pron: 22

1st take:
Speaking:54
OF: 64 Pron: 44

@Krisian pede makahingi ng sample recording mo. Kung ganyan ang OF mo, baka mabagal ka magsalita. Sa read aloud ba, nauubos mo ang progress bar?

guys can i use the same format in re-tell lecture to summarize spoken text? Although limited ang text sa summarize spoken text, i was just wondering if anyone tried to use it. esp kung hindi nasundan un main point ng lecture and all i have are just keywords.

The speaker provided a brief information about....
he mentioned that...

Supersaiyan · September 2017

@nicstee, yup, actually you can use the same template for retell lecture and summarize spoken text. It's 2 birds in one stone, pero like you what you've said, mejo limited yung word count. You can just tweak the template to save word count. Just my two cents. :-c

Krisian · September 2017

@Heprex , i copied the recommended speed here, for read allowed di ko po nauubos yung bar, around 3/4 nung progress bar yung consumed ko for long sentences and paragraphs, while a little more than po sa half yung nauubos ko for short sentences and paragraphs. I'll try po to send here my recordings, i just have to figure out lang po how to attach media po here sa forum.

@chandria hello, sorry wala po akong recording ng DI.

Levannie · September 2017

@Blackmamba aww mejo same tayo ng pinagdaanan sayang hehe

Levannie · September 2017

@cailynragsdepot sayang naman. may i know kung ilan usually sagot mo sa multiple choice-multiple answers?

katniss2015 · September 2017

@Levannie I've read somewhere na to be safe daw, try to answer at least 2 sa multiple choice multiple answers unless sure ka sa 3 answers. Sa lahat ng previous takes ko sa PTE, laging may 3 answers ako kahit hindi ako sure sa sagot which is not advisable kasi nga may negative marking. Pero sa next take ko, I will surely follow this advice and let's see kung may improvement sa reading score.

Blackmamba · September 2017

@Levannie Laban lang, kaya natin yan! Kelan mo ulit balak mag exam?

Chad10 · September 2017

@nicstee salamat po

may gmail ka? nasa google drive kasi files ko eh

shobskie · September 2017

Hi guys, I badly need tips from 79+ scorer sa speaking. In my 2 takes, consistent ang speaking ko at 65-66. Oral fluency is 76 at pronunciation ay 52.
First take, mabagal salita ko, mic position is between my upper lip and nose.
I tried to speak faster sa 2nd take, at positioned the mic in front of my mouth, mga 3 inches away.
I used templates din, binabasa ko na lang nung 2nd take para ok ang OF.
Help po! Any advise on how to improve Pronunciation? TIA!

AkawntantAnne · September 2017

HI! Ask ko lang sa mga nagtake na ng PTE
What is the best time to take PTE? In the morning, midnoon or afternoon? Why?
Thanks!

Levannie · September 2017

@katniss2015 yep kaya nga i asked her baka may effect yun sa score nya hehe. Napanood ko sa youtube yung experienced ni Jay ng e2language after ng exam nila na isa lang sagot nya sa multiple choice- multiple answers kc hindi nya nabasa yung instruction akala nya single answer lng pero naka-90 pa din sya sa reading.

Levannie · September 2017

@Blackmamba cguro nov or dec cguro. Hindi p makafocus sa revirew eh.

Hi guys, I got my 2nd PTE exam results taken yesterday.

Communicative Skills: L48/R66/S90/W53
Enabling Skills:G64/O90/P90/S90/V90/W90

Although I failed to achieve superior marks, but I am so relieved that my Speaking preparations and strategies work to perfection where I got S90, OF90, and P90. My first speaking mark before was S52. I focused on Speaking and Writing, next round intensive practice in Reading and Listening.

In SWT, Write from dictation, and Highlight incorrect words hindi ko natapos which tremendously affected my scores in Writing, Reading, Listening. Of course, I guessed for answers for Reading and Listening which I may choose wrong answers too.

Nagpapasalamat ako ky @Heprex,@hyperdex,@MissM,@cicciotinnie,@MLBS,@Supersaiyan,@bokz42 at sa lahat for sharing tips and experiences.
Another 2 weeks preparation for my Reading and Listening tasks. God bless us all.

kaidenMVH · October 2017

share ko lang po yun PTE A exam ko taken last Friday. Medyo yun review ko putol putol kasi mejo busy hehe, then bigla nag open NSW ng visa 190 para nominated skill ko so nag pa sked kaagad ako last Tuesday and luckily meron pa nakuhang slot ng Friday.
Eto po yun results ko:

L 85 R 83 S 79 W 80

Grammar 80 Oral Fluency 63 Pronunciation 75 Spelling 88 Vocabulary 88 Written Discourse 55

Thank God naka superior on first take hehehe. Thanks din po sa mga nag share dito ng mga tips, malakin tulong talaga para ma prepare.

Ang masusuggest ko lang po, own nyo yun test, pagpunta pa lang dapat kumpyansa na kayo na papasa, erase all doubts.
and sa mismong exam, if you miss something just move on, no point na isipin nyo kung may mistake man kayo sa previous question. Goodluck po sa mga susunod na takers. Will be submitting na may EOI asap.

chandria · October 2017

@ceasarkho @kaidenMVH what did you do sa speaking mo to improve your scores? Did you use exactly the templates for describe image? Sa repeat sentence nakuha mo ba lahat?? Thanks

ceasarkho · October 2017

@chandria, I followed lng ang generic template dito at 80%-90% accuracy using "https://dictation.io/" for speech recognition. Baseline ng speech speed is "Read A Loud" 40%-55% completion of the entire passage. Then same speed na for the rest of Speaking task. Mic position is front of my lips with 3inches distance, and speak aloud talaga.

ceasarkho · October 2017

@chandria , by the way sa repeat sentence pala, 2 items hindi ko na kompleto.

MLBS · October 2017

Good day guys. Tinatry kong iverify yung test results ko sa www.pearsonvue.com/ptescores pero lagi nyang sinasabing incorrect info daw kahit sure ako sa inenter kong username at pw. Anyone tried verifying their results here? Paranoid lang thanks!
