IELTS for General Skilled Migration visa (Sub class 189)
@hailey, visa 189 and 190 are both for working visas. May I know your applied occupation and assessing body? Usually namn kasi tinatanggap either academic or general training. However, you need to reach a required band score for additional points or to pass assessing body and visa requirements. Kung kinapos, hmm.. re-take tlga. Goodluck.

Last October nitry ko kumuha ng IELTS General(ang mahal mahal nito), di ako nagreview so ang score ko: Listening: 9, Reading: 8.5, Writing: 7, Speaking: 6.5 so madali sya actually medyo tumagalid lang ako sa interview kasi halos 5 years nako di nagpapractice mainterview. Walang kwenta ang score kasi ang points required ay 7 sa lahat ng category para magkaroon ng 10points sa skillselect. PTE Academic daw mas madali sa speaking kasi hindi face to face ang interview tama ba?

I wouldn’t say na mas madali yung PTE-A, pero mas mataas ang chance to get a Band 8 (Superior) on all language skills. Naexperience ko both IELTS and PTE-A, I’d say na mas tricky ang IELTS for me.
For other’s reference - main difference is - IELTS is evaluated and scored by a human rater, and PTE naman is by a computer program.
Let me give you one perspective for now. On Speaking…
Go for IELTS if tingin mong.. • Mas comfortable ka makipagusap sa tao • Kasi if okay ung speaking skills mo, even you stutter sometimes, mas forgiving ang tao on this situation. And computer does not. • Especially if you are a conversationalist - na madali sayo pagusapan yung buhay mo, general knowledge, or anything under the sun
On the otherhand, gofor PTE-A if tingin mong.. • You have a clear diction/ speak clearly (not necessarily with accent) • You know what words to stress when reading or delivering a lecture • Kung tingin mo, na kapag nagkkwento ka - minsan napagbabaliktad mo ung order of events or you’re trouble delivering your thoughts with coherence, then better ung PTE-A sayo. Unlike humans, I think mas forgiving naman ang computer kapag napagbali-baligtad mo ung sentences mo. Sentences ha, not particularly the words.
Hope this helps
