sabi dun ay:
evidence of a trade, diploma or higher qualification awarded by an institution in or outside Australia which involved at least two years of full-time study and all instruction was in English
for my wife's case, basta kumuha kami ng certificate from her university tapos naka-attach din ang diploma and TOR nya.

You will be asked to come at 7:45 am. But the written exam will start at around 9 am. Finishes at 12 noon. Sa hapon ang speaking. Sa amin, sa same venue lang ang speaking test. Around 4:40 pa ang naging sched ko kaya umuwi muna ko ng 12 noon. Di ko sure kung taga-saan ang examiner ko but I did not hear any British accent. He speaks very clear to me that I don't need to ask him to repeat every question.
Kala ko nung una, kaunti lang ang test-takers. Kasi wala ako kasabay na nagpa-register dati sa Brit. Council. Na-surprise na lang ako sa dami ng tao. Mostly mga Qatari students. Marami ring Pinoy. The ones I met were also aspiring Australian migrants.
