@zanx thanks :-)

hello po. taos puso po akong magpapasalamat sa grupo nato dahil sa mga tips nyo dito, 65 lang po yong target score ko pero palaging 50-63 lng talaga ang speaking ko nung nagtake ako bago ako naka join dito.
at ngayon po, nakuha ko na,
L/R/S/W 79/77/89/79

Nabulol pa ako twice, my ubo at sip on, may apat na repeat sentence akong di nakompleto pero sinasabi ko nalang confidently kung ano yong na remember ko,4 din na mali sa last part ng speaking kasi hindi ko alam ang mga tanong pero sumagot ako kahit mali at alam kong malayo na tama yun pero i still got 89. Tama sila, dapat talaga mabilis sa read aloud, di at rl, dun siguro ako nakabawi, tapos dahil sa ubo ko medyo dark na rin yung boses ko, ung mic ko po 3 inches talaga siya sa upper lip.

@kaidenMVH hi! saan ko po mahanap ang "ultimate guide to PTE exam"? tnx!

minelliespiritu · October 2017

Hello po. I will be taking the exam tomorrow. First time to take the exam. My problem po is writing. Any tips po? There are times sa mock test na hindi ko nabubuo un 200 words na minimum. And hindi ako confident sa essay ko.

@minelliespiritu, you can watch E2L and bring this structure with you in the exam:

kaidenMVH · October 2017

@eherm eto po pdf file.

Badong · October 2017

@minelliespiritu Writing din pinakamababa ko out of the 4 english skills. Tanda ko lang is out of 300 words max, nasa 220-230 words lang nagawa ko. I think this is a big factor, so try to maximize the words sa essay writing. You can prepare some "deep" words and insert insert mo na lang sa mga sentences/thoughts mo.

Format na ginamit ko for essay writing

1st paragraph - your stand on the issue(expound) make sure your stand/choice is clear.

2nd paragraph - cite reasons and examples to justify your stand.

3rd paragraph - conclusion - reiterate your stand and summarize all the reasons

minelliespiritu · October 2017

Thank you po @Supersaiyan @Badong. Okay lang po ba na 3 paragraphs lang ang gawin ko? Kasi sa E2 structure 4 paragraphs po.

Badong · October 2017

@minelliespiritu haven't tried 4 paragraphs sa essay writing, laging 3 paragraphs lang gamit ko pati sa mock exams. Lumampas naman ako 79 for writing with that style.

eherm · October 2017

@kaidenMVH thanks so much!

Heprex · October 2017

@wandererPH Anong part yung di mo nasagutan?

wandererPH · October 2017

@heprex 1 multiple choice single answer, tpos 2 write from dictation.

nursealexi · October 2017

Hi @heprex

ano po yung mga usual na topics for write essay na na encounter mo? I'm going to take the exam this November. kinakabahan ako baka hindi ako familiar sa topic na makuha ako. yari.

chandria · October 2017

Hi po, sa timing po sa exam.. separate po ba ang time ng summarize written text and essay? Or comhination na po xa?

greenapple · October 2017

@chandria hi sis ung essay after siya ng speaking part. ung summarize written text is usually start ng listening part. pero it differ depende sa computer.

dyanisabelle · October 2017

@minelliespiritu hi! Hope maka abot pa yung tip ko. Out of my previous takes, consistent na mataas yung scores ko sa writing. I used the PTE method 3442. Kulang din ako usually ng words- kapag kinukulang nagdadagdag ako sa examples. Sa lahat ng takes ko nasa 200-220 lang word count ko, so in my opinion mas important ang quality over quantity

very important yung flow. I made sure to use "this is because" "the reason is" "for example" "therefore" while following the PTE method. Good luck and God bless po!

caeley · October 2017

Hello po! Ngmock test ako kanina at eto po ang result:

L:72, R: 64, S: 65, W: 76
G: 47, OF: 83, P: 46, S: 90, V: 66, WD: 47

Iba tlga pg ngmock test na scored compared sa ngppractice lang lalo na sa speaking. Di ko ineexpect na 76 ako sa writing kasi more or less 200 words lng nasusulat ko, muntik pa ko mgkulang sa oras dito eh. Pero next time I'll try maka 250 words. Grabe nahirapan ako sa reading, halos di ko alam yung word choices.

Any tips pa po to improve my score? Tanong ko din po halimbawa 65 up na scores ko sa communicative skills then enabling skills ko nman ang mejo mababa, tatanggapin pa din ba for iron progr amd immigration? Or kelangan pati enabling skills 65 pataas din? Thank you.

caeley · October 2017

@dyanisabelle ginamit ko din yun sa writing and I think more or less 200 words lng ako. Naka 76 ako sa mock test.

MLBS · October 2017

Tip ko po sa nagkukulang sa writing: fabricate information kung wala na talaga kayo masabi. Mag imbento na kayo. Wala naman background check yan kung totoo sinabi nyo e. Better be safe na pasok kayo sa word limit para walang masyadong problema. Also state basic concepts for your answers pero elaborate the way you say it.

Agree. Naalala ginamit ko sila Jack Ma and Manny Pacquiao as "subject" tapos ginawan ko nalang ng istorya. hahahaha!

Need to practice sa Retell Lecture and Repeat Sentence. Dito ako medyo nahirapan pg ngppratice.

May question lang po ako
Describe Image: okay lng ba na basahin ko yung actual words sa graph or iparaphrase ko dapat?
Retell Lecture: okay lang din ba na yung mismong key words na sinabi ng speaker ang sabihin ko din? Medyo may struggle ako sa time pg mgconstruct pa ako eh.

caeley · October 2017

Sir @Heprex Thanks sa link. Super helpful lalo na sken na hindi ganun kalawak ang ideas and vocabulary.

dyanisabelle · October 2017

@MLBS haha.. true! Gumagawa ako minsan ng fake statistics hahaha according to the national authority for chuchu.

dyanisabelle · October 2017

@caeley communicative skills lang po ang may score requirement. Yung enabling okay lang kung di umabot sa desired score niyo.

Mas nahirapan din ako sa reading sa mock test. Mas madali sa actual.
