@anntotsky thanks po. kaya yan! goodluck
Para sakin, sa read aloud, kailangan po clear ung pagkakabigkas ng words para maayos ung pronunciation, yun kasi nadedetect ng computer. Malaking tulong po sakin ung mga graded PTE exams para maguage ung weaknesses ko for the exam.

Sa written text never ako nag copy paste from the passage, kasi i believe na dapat rephrasing ang gagawin dito. Pag gumagawa ako ng swt it should answer the question 'who did what, which did what'. Use Fanboy connectors.
Hope makatulong.

Kahit di ko sir magets ung ideas nya basta marinig ko ung words na sinsabi ni speaker e magttype ako. basta make sure ko na makakabuo ako ng phrase para maidugtong sa template ko. Ang mahirap dun sir e kapag di mo marinig or maintindihan ung words mismo na binabanggit nya, e.g. kinakain nya lahat ng salita nya kasi pag ganun nangyari wala ka masusulat.

I'm a silent reader of this thread, and prinint ko lahat ng info na kailangan dito simula page 1, it helped A LOT. Tama po ang sabi ng iba, panoorin yung videos ni romanpte on youtube.
Write from dictation
Repeat sentence
Read aloud
Reading and Writing FIB
Yan ang top priority. Last 1 week ko before the exam, yan lang yung finocus ko. Syempre need din magpractice sa ibang areas, pero yang apat yung todo effort dapat. Careercovers on youtube, PTEtutorial app and PTEstudy.com yung mga pinagpractican ko. Di na ako nakapagmocktest.
Tama po ang advice ng lahat dito na derederetso lang talaga dapat ang pagsalita, if you stutter, tuloy lang ang pananalita, medyo napapawhat the @$#%@# narin ako kasi nung nautal ako kung ano ano na sinasabi ko, kaya tumatawa ako during the exam everytime nangyayari ito. Haha also, sobrang sobrang helpful po kung pagaaralan talagang mabuti yung exam. Finally, yung placement ng mic, rinesearch ko po talaga ito sa mga previous posts, and I think it helped a lot. Mga 10 mins ako nagmmic test, hanggang sa boses ko lang talaga narinig ko, no external noise. Bale sa bandang tapat na ng ilong ko to. (naprove ko to kasi yung sa last take ko di ko ito ginawa). Yung loudness ng voice is tama lang. Sa speed ng pagsalita, tamang tama lang pero leaning towards medyo mabilis, pero dapat hindi mabulol. Sobrang laki ng impact nun sa RS and RA.
Yun lang po, sobrang humbled by this experience, mas proud ako dito sa exam na to kesa sa mga boards ko ganun hahah triple pa ang anxiety kasi after 6 days ko pa nakuha results (may error sa account ko).
God is great! ( :-S God bless and good luck po sa future takers!

@anntotsky I agree with @edge sa SWT, better to rephrase and use synonyms - except if one of the critical points e walang applicable synonym
By rephrasing and using synonym, you are showing yung skills mo sa grammar and vocabulary - which can boost your score.
Sa buong passage - kuhain ang atleast 3 main points. Gaya ng sabi ni edge use FANBOY Connectors.
List down and study synthesis and transformation words to help create a complex sentence. Study maigi for complex sentence - kasi sabi nga nila, it’s either successful ka in creating a complex sentence or you fail and lose marks. By generating a complex sentence, dun mo lang ma eensure na you can cover all main points in a single sentence, and maabot din ang ideal # of words sa SWT
