    Hello po! Tanong ko lang po, mahirap po ba ma-achieve ang 65 na score sa PTE? Ayun daw kasi ang required score sa BSN ng Deakin. 6.5 sa ielts lang kasi nakuha ko so need ko mag retake.

    Thanks po.

    @carlomorato hello! In my opinion, better to buy gold kit than use that youtube video. Tbh you're not paying for the content of the mock exams, anyway these don't appear in the actual exam and there are lots of resources for practice. What you are paying for is the simulation of the actual exam that you won't get by watching the video, and most importantly, scoring your speaking. :)

    I passed my PTE last July 24,2018 with an average score of 80 and the rest are 80-90's. It took me three times before I passed the exam because I need to have a minimum score of 55 both for enabling and communicative skills as a requirement Licensure by endorsement in Las Vegas. Unfortunately, my spelling score was less than 50 for the previous examination, so I have to travel to California, Alabama, and Phoenix Arizona every 5 days just to meet the deadline of my RN job requirement. Imagine I have to spend more or less 2000$ for the three trips, but anyways everything was worth it. My only piece of advice is to check on youtube videos for sample questions/exams because unlike the PTE Gold kit, there's no rationalization after the exam. So, you won't really know what were the answers especially to those difficult questions. I prefer to study exam with rationalization/explanation because you will retain what you learned and not just answering the question. Mostly youtube PTE videos gives you sample answer and explanation. The Gold Kit will just give you an idea of a real life exam situation. However, I noticed during the actual exam, the timer used in PTE is equally divided depending on the category of the exam compared with the Gold kit that they will give you like 1 hr to comply with the reading and writing skills, especially with the Reading Category, most test takers doesn't finish during the actual exam compared with the Mock test. Anyways, this is just based on my experience and we have different approaches or strategies how to ace the exam. Practice a lot! Rationalize your answers, check on strategies how to answer fast. Just keep the faith and Don't give up. :)

    Hi, thank you po sa lahat ng members na nag share ng tips, review items, at encouragement sa mga test takers na kagaya ko. All templates ko po ay dito galing, and really helpful po siya. Isama pa naten ang E2language by Jay. Eto po ang naging PTE journey ko and how I managed to get my desired scores. I will also highlight my mistakes para 'wag naten maexperience pa. So eto po ang timeline ko (Forgive the long post):

    July 9, 2018 (L-66, R-75, S-90, W-67) - Tama po na kapag hindi natapos ang WFD eh eto mangyayare sa atin, so please take extra care sa pagtingin ng time lalo sa listening part. Mas humaba po talaga ang mga recordings at hindi ma-inext agad, I've taken 2 mock test kaya alam ko naman ang time capacity ko, pero nasurprise ako sa actual bakit ako kinulang ng oras at dahil d'yan, 2-3 items ng WFD po namiss out ko. Pangalawa ako sa una natapos sa exam room pero ako pa kinulang sa time. 2hrs 20mins

    July 21, 2018 (L-84, R-81, S-90, W-76) - I tried my best to beat my time limit kaya natapos ko sia talaga ng maaga. Proctor says I'm very fast. So eto mistake ko this time, ang summarize written text ko po ay complex sentence but copy paste lang ng mga parts ng passage ginawa ko, and I think it made my score lower. Essay ko is opinion but I made it look like argumentative and basta ko nalang ipinasok ang topics sa essay template. 2 hrs 10mins

    July 31, 2018 (L-90, R-90, S-89, W-88) - Finally! So eto po ginawa ko since writing ang dapat ko i-improve, Summarize written text po is I did not copy paste parts ng passage, I took keywords then synonyms ng keywords ang ginamit ko, while constructing a complex sentence with connectors na madali tandaan (and, but, while). 2hrs 20mins

    Essay ko po, unfortunately dalawa kinaharap kong essay. Pero laban lang! Ganito ginawa ko:

    1st essay is opinion, so yung templates naten dito sa forum, I reconstructed it in a way na, as if ako lang ang naglalahad ng reasons, then I added two complex sentences sa kada paragraph.

    2nd essay is argumentative, pasok na pasok ang template naten dito. I just made some adjustments by making some paragraphs contain two complex sentences.

    Thanks po sa lahat ng prinovide n'yong templates again. If ever 'di mo man makuha ang desired scores, prayers will help na mas palakasin ang loob at bigyan tau ng pagasa na wag sumuko. Keep thinking why we are doing this, ang ating mga inspirasyon sa buhay. :-)

    Hi Madam, @Marites_47 for my listening po, I tried my best sa listening task na HCS at MCSA na makinig nalang ng mabuti, instead of taking many notes (I write maybe 5 keywords na sobrang important lang tingin ko), pero while carefully glancing sa answers. Mabagal po ako magsulat kaya sa pagnonotes, namimiss out ko po yung buong sense ng topic it turns out na sa akin hindi advisable sa kagaya kong mabagal ang magnotes masyado.

    Reading po is need talaga ng practice po sa pagcomprehend ng passage, araw araw sa byahe ko kase papasok po while riding MRT (Minimum 30 mins), libangan ko na po magsagot ng reading tasks ng PTE APP (paid app sa playstore). Halos 50% po ng app nasagutan ko na. Hirap po ako sa reorder paragraph, kaya nung actual exam binuhos ko ang 4 mins kada reorder para ma analyse ko siya mabuti. Then mga FIB naman po I do eliminate mga possible wrong answers una palang (ginawa ko kada item sa FIB mga less 1min lang masagutan para mabawi yung nagamit ko sa reorder). Same sa mga multiple choice at single answer ng reading ganun po diskarte ko cross out ko lang agad mga sureball na wrong answers para mas narrow ang choices ko. I do mock exams kay E2language din po, naka sampu ako ng mock exams ni Jay.
