Kakatapos ko lang po magtake ng first actual PTE ko nung May 17 and
proficient grading ang nakuha ko.
LRSW - 74/73/90/66
First and foremost,
I would like to thank sir @batman sa template na nakita ko para sa
Retell lecture and conclusion on Describe Image
Nagkulang po ako ng time sa reading (FIB R) at 1 question ng WFD
kaya sabit ang writing score ko.
Lumabas po na question sa Essay is Parents liable for children at their young age.
Sa Describe image, lumabas po ung complicated image nung How to use Keyboard (4 sections - 2 good 2 bad)
Yung reading section nmn, lumabas ung Blue color related to food.
Pansin ko rin po, sobrang delay ng software ng PTE. Kahit fast typer ka, delayed ang mga words na tinatype and mejo matigas ang keyboard hehe.
Can anyone suggest papano improve scores ko?
And paadvise narin po if need ba talaga ifast track ung assessment ko?
Thank you.

Yes sure po ako na un ang reason kung bakit ang baba ng writing ko including spelling dahil more likely 9-10 words namiss ko sa last sentence ng WFD.
Anyways, can someone give me advise for the moment?
@chyrstheen - same po tayong Chemical Engineer
Mgsusubmit palang ako documents sa Engineers Australia,
Pwde po ba paadvise if need ko ba ifast track ung submission ko?
Kelan kaya ang magandang timing ng pagreretake ng PTE?
Thank po and sorry if naoff topic.
