    @Heprex @batman I did another mock test today, result attached here. Yung pronunciation ko ang baba pa din (sana sa headset lang tlga na gamit ko). Binuksan ko malakas TV while doing the mock test para masanay ako sa ingay. Ng-ok na ung OF ko, sinunod ko lng ung mga nbasa ko sa previous posts nyo, mabagal kc ako mgsalita tlga, binilisan ko lng konti. 2 tulog na lang moment of truth na. Hope to have a good night sleep prior the exam. These past few nights puyat lagi, naiisip ko ang exam ko sa Friday. Kinakabahan ako ng sobra. I don't know what to expect sa actual test kasi first time ko mg take PTE. Wish me luck everyone!

    So after a week of waiting, I just got my result.

    L-82, the rest all 90. :) first time to take pte acad, now lodging my post study visa and submitted na an eoi application for 189.

    Tips on pte kasi meron pa akong namiss na repeat sentence :(, dapat focused ka while taking the exam. Wala akong review kasi super busy but during the test, i made sure na pinag iisipan ko ung sinasabi ko and nakafocus kahit maingay sa room. Also, wag maglong pause, and make it very conversational ang pagsasalita wag parang robot. ;) and lastly, prayers! :) good luck to all!

    Super glad with my result kahit ang tagal. Hehe.

    Hi po mga sir and mam, ask ko lang po lahat po ba dito sa forum self review ginawa? I’m considering po kasi mag enrol sa review center di po kasi ako makapag focus sa bahay dahil sa mga bata. Ok po ba sa JRooz review center? Your advice po is highly appreciated. @Heprex @Supersaiyan @jedh_g at sa mga makakabasa po.

    @csdizon0904, usually po self - review lang po kami. Mejo complicated nga po yang sa inyo since may mga bata sa bahay. Pero po I assure po na kahit mag enroll po kayo sa review center sasabihan dn po nila kayo na mag practice sa bahay, that means time investment po tlga. It's up to you po in the end, pero yung mga tinuturo po nila sa review center na tips usually makikita na din po dito sa thread.

    Matthew 7:7
    Ask and you will receive, search and you will find, knock and the door will be opened for you.

    Psalm 23
    The Lord is my Shepherd, I shall not want. He makes me lie down in green pastures, he leads me beside quiet waters, He restores my soul. He guides me in paths of righteousness for His name's sake. Eventhough I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will not fear no evil, for you are with me. Your rod and your staff, they comfort me. You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies. You anoint my head with oil. My cup overflows. Surely goodness and love will follow me all the days of my life, and i will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

    PTE Writing Tips

    For writing essay I used E2 language format and applying what I learned from Ielts. Sa intro, sa 1st sentence ni restate ko lang yung question using my own words. Then sa 2nd sentence if one sided lang yung question, I give summary of the reasons ( 2 reasons only). Example, if ang essay is about importance of computers (one sided), eto 2nd sentence ko. Computers are valuable resources as they (1st reason) aid in learning and are (2nd reason) used to communicate with others. Then sa 3rd sentence sasabihin ko para pampahaba-- In this essay, I shall discuss my point of view by giving points and examples about the topic.

    Then sa 2nd paragraph, elaborate ko na ang 1St reason. Mga 2 sentences na magsupport sa 1st reason, like if yung 1st reason ko is aid in learning, expand ko ang topic by answering how computers aid in learning,etc. Usually yung reason mo convert mo by asking how, what, when, or who. Tapos sa 3rd sentence, I state examples. Pwede ka din mag add pa ng 4th sentence parang isummarize mo lang ang 2nd paragraph.

    Sa 3rd paragraph discuss naman ang 3rd reason same sa ginawa sa 2nd par.

    4Th paragraph 1st sentence conclusion, then 2nd sentence recommendation.

    If 2 sided naman yung intro pwede mo gamitin yung nasa template like kina Heprex na samples. Then yung 2nd par yung kabilang side, then yung 3rd paragraph yung other side. Tapos same last paragraph.

    If medyo nahihirapan ka sa mga ideas, research ka dito sa forum ng mga recent topics. Tapos based dun sa topic reasearch ka anong pwedeng maging points and reasons para may idea ka na ano ilalagay mo sa essay.

    Ang key talaga sa writing is dapat marami ka ideas. If nahihirapan ka mag construct ng idea try to research as much as possible. Google mo yung mga common or recent topics on pte writing tapos may mga sample questions dun,, then research mo ano possible answers para sa actual exam may idea kana ano isasagot. Tapos dpat familiarize mo mga connectors (like moreover, therefore, for instance, etc) kasi mas mataas ang grade kapag medyo complex ang sentence na ginagamit mo kesa simple sentences lang.

    For summarize written text strategy ko is to first get ano main topic. Then analyze what important points were given, may nangyari ba? If meron ano ang nangyari, kelan nangyari? ano at para kanino ang purpose? Usually kasi sa mga paragraphs naka detail lang pero yung point lang naman dun is parang dinedescribe lang yung main topic. If you can answer who/what, when, how and why about the topic pwede mo na pagdugtungin yung ideas mo thru connectors and form a sentence. If you will have multiple paragraphs, summarize mo muna per paragraph then summarize mo ulit lahat in one sentence

    Another tip also in writing as much as possible do not repeat the same words. If you dont have much stored knowledge about synonyms okay lang. Practice and Research is the key. Kaya malaki ang help sa akin yung pag research sa mga common or recent topics kasi while practicing pwede akong mghanap ng synonyms then mas madali ko syang ma recall sa actual exam kasi nagawa ko na sya before. Tapos if meron kayong word na ma encounter na parang hirap kayo mag elaborate, google nyo din anong synonym or phrases na pwedeng same meaning ng word. Share ko yung nilista kong mga synonyms na possible na magagamit sa mga essay kasi minsan these are the topics commonly asked.

    @csdizon0904. Self review din ako and with 2 demanding kids. What I did was after work nagrereview ako dito sa office, di muna ako umuwi, para tuloy tuloy ang review ko. If you have locker rooms naman at work or canteen mas maigi doon ka mag review. Ok lang if maingay kasi para masanay ka sa noisy background kasi sa actual PTE sabay2 kayo magsasalita at kung di ka sanay ma dedestruct ka talaga. God bless you sa review. Kaya yan. Tyaga lang sa pagrereview at prayers makukuha mo target score mo. :-)
