You must not write down anything hanggang di pa nagstart ang exam. The laminated papers is usually 5 pieces (not sure) and pwede naman back-to-back magsulat. If you need a new one, it's either they will give you an eraser or they will provide you with another batch of paper.

Thank you po for all the tips here, they have been extremely useful. I managed to get superior level scores in my first take. Based on personal experience, APEUni is a good practice tool but don’t rely much on the AI scoring. My actual PTE scores were much better than my practice scores.
All the best everyone!

Thank you sa info about APEUni, been using it now kaya lang nakaka discouraged yung scores na nakukuha ko. Di ko alam kung reliable. Also kasi inconsistent, minsan mataas minsan sobrang baba - layo ng gap. Pero now, mukang may differenc naman sa actual based sa experience mo?

Thank you! Same, my scores in APEUni has a very wide range but rarely above 79. Just keep practicing and don’t get discouraged by the scores! You might even encounter some of the questions in the actual exam.

Yes po, it’s required to wear a mask the entire time. Suggest po to wear something comfortable. The mic naman po is sensitive to sound and you have time to test it before the exam begins.

Nakakatuwa at ang daming inputs na makukuha mo dito. Kaso sa sobrang dami di ko na alam san ako magstart na site or sa ang tools ang maganda mgstart. I think personal choice nalang siguro which one will work for you. Salamat sa lahat. Got a good scores pero magretake ako kase need ko 79+ all.
