Hello, Everyone! Ngayon ko lang nalaman na may forum na ganito para sa mga nag-a-aspire mag-migrate sa AU. Haha. Anyway, Nakapag-exam na ko last Nov 9. Shoutout sa mga nakasabay ko!! Sana nandito rin kayo. I got superior marks naman, awa ng Diyos.
Hindi ako related in anyway sa Dream English PTE pero dun ako bumili ng mock tests. Real exam materials ginagamit nila so malaking tulong din. At least mga 4 FIBs, 1 ROP, lahat nun 4 WFDs, some RS, some DIs lumabas sa exam. Laking tulong saken especially sa part ng Reading na 2 ROPs na mataas yun score weight nya . ROP kasi pinakaayokong question. Hahaha. Tama na kagad yun isang ROP ko at yun isa nalang ang inintindi ko talaga.
I can attest din naman dun sa APEUni pero mas preferred ko yun mga youtube videos ng PTE Tutorials at CareerCoves. I noticed almost same content. Before nun schedule ng exam ko, naglabas din sila ng prediction file at videos, dun din ako nagconcentrate. Marami talaga ang narerepeat na questions so mas magiging madali na.

Hirap ng Re-order paragraph. I already tried different approach para makuha ng perfect score sa bawat item sa APEUni pero average ko ay 1-2 points palage. Less than a month nalang, exam ko na ule. Itong part na to talaga ako nahihirapan. I tried 5 finger strategy, SVO, etc. pero di ko mai-angat un points ko. Just would like to ask yun approach na ginawa nyo po dito sa part na to. Thanks po sa mga sasagot.

@bartowski, don't be disheartened. Just keep practicing. I can share to you the November prediction file sent to me by Dream English PTE para mapractice mo yun mga real exam ROPs. PM me your email address. It will definitely help a lot. More practice will give you some clues. Eventually, masasanay ka rin magsolve or mag re-order.

Go with the platform. Don't go for the application because you will attempt an exam on the platform. So go with the platform. I have a good suggestion for a mock exam platform is 79score.com. Its provides one free mock exam with instant result.

Sorry sir, may nakita po ba kayo na article or statement from Australian immigration na tumaas na po yung requirements nila for Superior English? or from PTE Pearson po mismo. Pa-send din po sana dito yung thanks. I'm trying to find one pero wala po ako makita eh. Thank you po.

Hi, bartowski! Wala pang announcement from AU Immigration. Yan ay announcement from Pearson, and it was made public by Dream PTE. I am still hoping na hindi muna itataas to 84 ng AU Immi, or iretain ang 79, or exempted sana yun mga nag-exam at mageexam pa lang before the effectivity date na Jan 12, 2021. I, myself will be impacted should this change be implemented by AU Immi. Lahat ng sections 90 ang score ko except Reading na 83. Imagine mo yun 1 point. Nagkcomplete pa ko ng ibang requirements for assessment sa EA. So, kung next week pa ko makakasubmit, baka yun outcome eh next year pa. So, if ever iimplement yan at maabutan ko pa, need ko iretake yun exam, get superior score 84+,just to claim 20 pts.

Sana hindi i-follow ng AU Immi.

Hello, kakasubmit ko lang for ACS assessment so sunod ko naman itong PTE.
Nakaka-anxious naman to, nagbabasa palang ako ng exam tips kinakabahan nako kaagad haha
Nakakasalita naman ako ng english ah hindi ba pwedeng usap nalang kami i-share ko buong talambuhay ko in english. Lol
Kidding aside, gaano po katagal overall ang test, 2 hrs ba? May expiry ba ang result neto?
Thanksssss

Na-cancel po ba previously ang exam niya? If yes, need po manually i-resched yung exam niya. If wala po kasing address, baka nasa temporary holding test center siya.
