Hello everyone. Silent reader lang ako and I only send a message privately to the members pag may tanong. I just need any advice na baka makatulong.

I took test a sa gold package mga 2 weeks ago and i got 65 for both speaking and reading. Then i took test b yesterday. I got 67 sa reading and 69 sa speaking. Sa other 2 exams superior nung test b though nung test a nasa 70+ ung scores ko.

For speaking, medyo nautal utal ako sa read aloud tapos sa describe image and retell lecture mas okay nung test b kasi diresiretso na ako mgsalita. Gumamit kasi ako ng template as advised dito sa forum. Nung test a madalas ako huminto kasi hindi ako agad makaisip ng words to turn my notes into sentences. Malala nung test b ko ung repeat sentence. Hirap tlga ako dun. I tried writing yung 1st letters ng words, it worked sa iba but sa iba hindi din. Hingi lng sana ako ng advice exam ko na sa tuesday.

and malaki ba impact ng repeat sentence sa score ng speaking? Ang alam ko highest na nagbibigay ng score sa speaking is ung read aloud, tama ba? Ang liit kasi ng tinaas ng score ko from una mock test so im thinking ano ang highest contributor sa score.

Pinakamababa ko in both tests is reading. Seems easy kasi kung iisipin mgbabasa lang pero yun pa pinakamababa. Parang wala ako nadadalian sa lahat ng test types sa reading. Huhu. Reorder paragraph pinakamalala saka ung 2 fill in the blanks. Madalas nakukuha ko halos sunod sunod unng blanks na hnd ko na maintindihan ung paragraph. May I ask din po ano highest contributor sa score dito? Parang ang onti kasi ng points for reading at pag madami ka mali, mahirap bawiin kasi nga onti lng items.

Any comments and advice will be appreciated guys. I am aiming for superior scores. Thank you in advance.

batman · May 2018

@mabelledita try mo improve read aloud mo. it constitute also sa score mo sa reading part. Hindi lng sa reading module naka base ang score/ kahit sa other module as long may pagbabasa nagaganap interrelated sya. (afaik)

fioning1120 · May 2018

indulgence · May 2018

@batman please send me the template sir,. need kopo isapuso yan 4 days before ng actual exam. Thank you sir.

chyrstheen · May 2018

@fioning1120 kinukuha ko main topic sa first part nung passage then conclusion sa last part. Di rin ako masyado naglalagay ng detalye. Make sure din na complex sentence yung SWT mo. Usually 30-35 words lang nagagawa ko.

chyrstheen · May 2018

@mabelledita reading fill in the blanks contribute both sa reading and writing skills. Try mo magbasa sa mga unfamiliar topics sayo. In my case kasi dun ako pinakanahihirapan sa FiB and yun din nakakafrustrate.

Sa repeat sentence naman, try mo magshadow sa mga youtube vids para mapractice short term memory mo. Good luck

jedh_g · May 2018

@deaddisco email address mo?

archdreamchaser · May 2018

Question po. Sa first part ng exam, after introduction, before Read aloud my 30 seconds preparation ba for each item? kasi balak ko sana magsulat ng template for retell lecture and describe image atleast 15-20 seconds gagamitin ko from Read Aloud, so that when I'm about to start in retell and describe image may note nako para basahin. Natry nyo na ba magsulat ng template sa actual exam? or wlang chance?

Now ko lang naconfirm even pala yun watch bawal magsuot? visible ba yun clock sa computer?sa lower right portion? or just in PTE exam screen lang?kasi pag full screen usually nahide yun clock below. Thanks

Supersaiyan · May 2018

@archdreamchaser, wala kang time na makita sa ilalim ng computer only timer. Full screen yung PTE Academic application na running sa PC mo. Pde ka nman mag sulat pero make sure nka focus ka pa rin sa sasabihin mo and also kung start recording na. May na encounter ako na walang beep sound na tumunog tpos nagulat ako recording na yung status sa screen ko.

archdreamchaser · May 2018

@Supersaiyan Thank you. plan ko pa nman isuot digital watch para my timer and stop watch. Anyway sana hindi ako kapusin sa time kasi kung walang clock di ko alam kung nagexceed na pala ako:-(

archdreamchaser · May 2018

@Hunter_08 Thanks sa info, I thought speed is the key, buti nalang normal lang as long as matapos ang passage on the given time, kasi nagkakaerror ako ng try ko yun super bilis, nawawalan narin ako ng intonation, naging flat ang pagsalita ko.
parang mamalatin nako kakapractice ng Speaking Section, This week na exam ko iwas nalang inom cold water hehe!

mabelledita · May 2018

@chyrstheen thanks miss.

rjq.m · May 2018

@archdreamchaser Sa speaking section sir just try to sound confident with what you say. Kaya mo yan, mejo forgiving din ung scoring system nila. sa experience ko may isang item ako sa describe image na puro wrong grammar na, tapos may 3 items ako sa repeat sentence na gibberish na ung last word. Then may 1 item ako sa re tell lecture na mejo nag stutter ako. Despite that naka chamba pa ng 90. Kaya mo yan!

archdreamchaser · May 2018

@rjq.m Thank you sa encouraging words, kinakabahan ako. first time ko palang magtake. Sa dami ng reviewers parang I need more time to review, but this is it na! Thanks again.

Supersaiyan · May 2018

@archdreamchaser yaka mo yan. Basta give your best shot para walang pagsisihan sa huli. God bless.

rctc · May 2018

Hi All,

Planning on taking PTE Academic soon. Pwede po makahingi ng review materials?

Thanks in advance!

Lexi · May 2018

@mabelledita sa Reading sa MCMA, answer at least two. If you’re not sure sa third answer mo, wag no na isagot. Nakakabawas kasi ng score yun maling answer. Goodluck!

Lexi · May 2018

@archdreamchaser yun Read Aloud, malaki chance na ma-perfect mo yun area na yun, which will add big component to your score. So I suggest to use the free time to practice reading it aloud before recording begins. Para alam mo basahin at di ka mautal bigkasin yun difficult words. Mabilis lang ang preparation time dun. Baka di ka din makasulat. Distraction lang sya, in my opinion.

Just memorize the templates.

mafimushkila123 · May 2018

Hello! I just took the PTE tapos sa awa ng Dyos naka-superior agad ako. medyo nasurprise ako kasi di ganun kaganda mga sagot ko, nag-utal-utal pa ko sa mga retell. pero i think nakatulong ng malaki yung pag-accent ko ng slight hehe. may napanood ako sa youtube, yung E2 academic (search nyo lang "PTE" yun agad lalabas, yung Jay ang speaker) yun lang reviewer ko plus yung binigay sakin na material. Anyway natuon pansin ko sa sinabi ng speaker dun sa video na "if you are number 1 Filipino, number 2 Indian.. this is going to be difficult for you because of your accent. Nothing wrong with your language, but it's just the way you speak" hahaha! Anyway, ayun, dinaan ko sa pag-accent at pagbigkas ng letter "T" nang may arte. feeling ko nakadagdag yun. Good luck sa mga magte-take! :-bd

lizzie86 · May 2018

@pangky_town just read your post. Actually napanood ko from the one of theu pte reviewers sa youtube na medyo pinahirap nga nila ang pte dahil nga dumadami na o ang immigrants sa Oz. Kaya ang tip nila is mag focus sa grammar and spelling sa exam para masmaka superior score ngayon 2018

ronharper69 · May 2018

@archdreamchaser, for every Read Aloud meron ka 40 seconds to prepare before magstart yung recording so you can use this time to write your re-tell template if you wish. Sa dalawang take ko ng PTE, itong portion ko tlga sinusulat yung re-tell template ko kasi weakness ko talaga listening.

Pero be careful lang kasi baka nagstart na recording di mo mapansin. Regarding sa pag gamit ng timer watch, very strict kasi sa Pearson papatanggal nila lahat ng accessories or jewelry mo. Before taking the test they will ask you to roll up your sleeves, collar etc to make sure na wala kang notes etc. Lahat ng nasa pocket mo papaiwan sa locker..

malmon46 · May 2018

guys selling my silver kit pte. PM me!

archdreamchaser · May 2018

@ronharper69 totoo yun sabi mo distracting kasi un 1st item read aloud, i dont know if 1 or 2 yun. nainext ko agad. I thought recording na sya. Instead na nagready ako before mgread aloud. Another worry ko hindi ko natapos un 2 items ng write from dictation kinapos ako sa time. I think naubos time ko sa reading sections:-(
