wag ka bumili or magtiwala sa scoring sa pte tutorial or kahit saang mock test exam, even APEUni may inconsistency sa Speaking rating; magkakaiba ang way ng pagmemeasure nila, manual scoring sa Pte tutorial and most likely with the intention to make you register sa kanilang program, samantalang si Pearson is AI at walang ibang mock tests na mas reliable sa scoring kung di yung Official from Pearson which is www.ptepractice.com, dahil sa pearson ka rin mag eexam hindi sa iba, syempre yung official mock tests yung pagbabasihan mo kung tama yung ginagawa mo.

@coolguy22 take mock tests from pearson.. For RS, practice in youtube search for pte tutorials or careercoves. For reading, practice in ptestudy.com

practice lang talaga @Admin este, madaming practice.
ang ginawa ko jan lately e makinig ng mga mp3 files, dati mga TED talks at Podcast, (thanks @Heprex ) kaya lang, mas magaling, i mean mas naging effective sakin na gawing audio list na lang yung mga repeated question ng SST at RL, informative din naman yung mga audio files na yun kaya di naman ganun kaBoring.
Mapapansin mo na lang lately nag-iimprove na nang kusa yung short term memory mo.
then yung audio, i-x2 x3 x4 mo yung speed nang paunti unti kapag mejo nahahasa na yung skills. (c/o @Supersaiyan ) from mga last takes ko nasa 65 avergae ko sa Listening, nung ganang review practice na ang ginawa ko naging 86 na, ewan ko lang kung sa susunud na take e mamamaintain ko hehehe.
Fake it until you make it.

sa RS, eto naging style ko;
-last 2 sec before magsalita yung AI, anticipate na may maririnig kang word, upon hearing it, need to imagine it para mas matagal maretain sa short term memory. Pwede rin imimic yun way ng pagsasalita nya para makuha mo agad yung sentence.
-try to remember chunks of phrases with few initials.
works 100% for me.

yes sir mura yung sa pte tutorial, I tried 1 rin before pero after 1week yung result compared to ptepractice within the day meron na agad, I realized manual nila ginagawa yung scoring which is lower compared to ptepractice. Regarding your scores sa Pte tutorial i bet mas mataas dyan yung makukuha mo if you took ptepractice official mock tests.
Yun official mock tests ni pearson is part of the journey, ang idea is to Understand how the AI scoring works, from there kahit hindi ka na uli magmock tests, kada exam mo alam mo kung saan mo need mag improve, based sa score mo previously.

Hi everyone. tanong ko lng po kung may naka subok or naka experience na ba sa inyo dito tungkol sa paid IELTS or PTE test certificate with passing score? skeptical lang ako baka scam. Kung legit nman mga eto,, bat may nag aalok ng ganito lalo online? sabi nila, Pwede daw gawan ka nila ng modified passing score na gusto mo sa PTE or IELTS.. Hmm Too good to be true. Pa-advise lang po. Salamat

If you think it is too good to be true then stay away po. I have no idea sa business nila, pero it doesn't make sense na sa mga english exams so in my opinion illegal yan hehehe. Aral nalang mabuti at isuperior natin ang PTE

Yes @jdash plano ko na din kumuha ng gold kit sa pearson after salary hehe. Sana makasuperior. Listening and reading ang tingin kong weakness ko. Dun muna ako magfocus at salamat talaga at may forum na ganito.

Permission to post po, sorry for asking an off topic question, pakidelete nalang po kung bawal po sa admin. Ang question ko po is, is it fine kung halimbawa 65 palang ang nakuhang score sa pte then inapply na for registration for ahpra. then kukuha nalang ulit ng pte to get higher point for PR? or yung initial pte score na yung magagamit? Thank you po sa sasagot.
