Ngayon ko nalang pala ishare ung ginawa ko po sa review hehe hindi ako makatulog sa sobrang tuwa.
Una po, gusto ko po muna magpa-salamat sa thread na ito. Kung hindi po dahil sa inyo, hindi po ako makakakuha ng tips sa PTE exam ko. Pangalawa po, HUWAG PO KAYO SUSUKO! 6 takes po ako bago ko nakuha yung score na kelangan ko. Kung hindi niyo po makuha sa una, ikalawa, ikatlo, huwag po kayo panghinaan ng loob. Makukuha niyo rin po yan!
Ito naman po yung mga ginawa ko nun nagrereview po ako:
Speaking
Read Aloud
Malaking tulong po sakin dito yun ApeUni. Practice lang po sa talaga sa ApeUni ang ginawa ko dito. May shadowing din kasi si ApeUni, kaya pwede din po kayo masanay kung papano po yung tamang pag-pronounce ng words and intonation. Nun una, mababa nakukuha ko kay ApeUni sa RA tapos pag pinakingan yung recording ang panget ng output. Pero may settings lang pala sa chrome browser para maging maayos un pag-record ng boses niyo. Kelangan niyo lang po piliin yung tamang input device or yung mic ng computer niyo. iCheck niyo nalang po sa youtube or i-google niyo po kung pano po iset ng tama un mic sa google chrome. After ko po ito magawa, kahit nag-stutter ako sa practice nakakakuha parin ako ng score na above 70 sa ApeUni Read Aloud. Another advice din po, kuha po kayo ng headphone na may maayos na mic. Para masanay din po kayo pagdating sa exam. Nun una po kasi, ang ginagamit ko lang ay yung mga free earphones (pag bumili kayo ng cellphone) na may mic.
Resources:
Repeat Sentence
Dito po, nagpractice muna ako ng WFD. Halos same din kasi po. Kelangan niyo po makuha or matandaan yung sinabi ng speaker. Mas nadadalian din po ako sa WFD nun una kesa sa RS. Kaya sinanay ko po muna yung tenga ko sa WFD. Nun nasanay na ako or natatandaan ko na un sinabi ng speaker, mas nadalian na ako sumagot. Another tip po is iimprove niyo po un fluency. Napansin ko po, mas mataas ang score ng RS kapag fluent po kayo.
Resources:
Describe Image
Dito po, gumamit ako ng template. Yung kay Sonny English po ang ginamit ko. Check niyo nalang po sa Youtube Channel niya yung template. May playlist po siya dun ng DI templates. Tapos po, practice lang din po sa ApeUni.

Retell Lecture
Yung dito naman po, kay Jay ng e2language po yung ginamit ko na template and ApeUni to practice po.

Answer Short Questions
- ApeUni lang din po ako dito

Summarize Written Text
- Ang ginamit ko po dito ay yung "Albeit...; but,.....; furthermore, ..... Pero sinunod ko yung advice ni sir @Unsullied_06 na 35-38 words dapat. Kasabay po niyan is practice din sa ApeUni
Resources:
Essay
- May template po ako ginamit dito. Yung kay sir @steven po na template ang ginamit ko dito and practice din sa ApeUni
Resources:
Reading
Reading and Writing Fill in the Blanks
- Dito po kay Jay ule ako natuto. Ang sabi niya, kelangan po iimprove un grammar, vocab and collocations. Actually, ang hirap po ng collocations kasi sobrang dami. Ang ginawa ko po dito ay naghanap po ako ng video na may collocations tapos ginawa kong background music habang nasa trabaho, pag-nagdridrive, etc. Malaking tulong din kasi kahit papano, may matatandaan ka na ilang pairs ng words na nalabas sa exam. Bukod po dito is practice din sa ApeUni.
Resources:
e2Language:
PTE Collocations:
Multiple Choice (Single/Multiple)
- Practice lang po sa ApeUni ang ginawa ko dito.

- Dito naman po, yung kay Sonny English na lecture un pinanood ko then practice ule sa ApeUni.
Resources:
Reorder Paragraph
- Dito naman po ang ginawa ko dito ay pinanood ko un lecture ni Jay sa e2language sa youtube and more on reading practice(articles, books, news, etc). Dito po kasi ako nahirapan talaga. Hindi ko makuha un flow ng information nun una. Kaya ang ginawa ko po ay nagbasa ako ng nagbasa. Bumili ako ng libro(fictional and non-fictional), nagbabasa din ako sa ScienceDaily.com ng mga articles. Hangang sa nasanay po ako. Sinamahan ko rin ng practice sa ApeUni.
Resources:
Listening
Summarize Spoken Text
- Again, kay Jay ng e2language po ung sinunod ko dito plus practice sa ApeUni
Resources:
Write from Dictation
- Dito po, sinanay ko po un tenga ko sa kakapakinig ng news and then tinatry ko alalahanin un sinabi ng reporter. Ang pinapakingan ko po madalas dito ay ung ABC News Australia sa Youtube. Dun po ako nasanay makinig and maintindihan yung sinasabi nun speaker. Kasabay din po nito un practice sa ApeUni.
Resources:
The Rest of Listening
- Puro practice lang po talaga ako dito sa ApeUni. Wala na po ako pinanood na videos or lectures dito. Puro practice lang po.
Resources:
Again, maraming salamat po ule sa inyo kasi ang laki po ng naitulong ng thread na ito sakin. Sa mga mag-tatake po ng exam, huwag po kayo kabahan kasi alam ko po kaya niyo po yan. Wag niyo rin po kalimutan mag-dasal. Malaking tulong po talaga ang dasal,
Huwag din po kayo manghinayang sa pag-gastos ng subscription fee sa ApeUni or ibang review/practice resources. Sobrang laki bagay po talaga kapag nakakapag-practice kayo sa mga sites na iyan.
Maraming Salamat po!

Hello po! Sa mga tapos na sa PTE, ano po ang template niyo sa SST? Ang ginagamit ko kasi ay 'The speaker was discussing...' at nakukuha kong score sa Apeuni eh 6-7/10. Hingi sana ako ng tips?😁
Nag try ako ng template ni jimmysem sa SST '... is about interesting topic based on many....' ang score ay 10/10 sa Apeuni
Sino po nakapag try na nito sa actual exam? Salamat po sa insights ninyo! 😁

Hello Sir @JB26 share ko po sayo naging experience ko dyan. Nung first take ko nung March kay Jimmyssem ginamit kong template sa SST naka-Proficient ako sa Writing pero yung other 3 parts Superior. Pero nung second take ko nung June yang 'the speaker was discussing' na ginamit ko ayun naka-Superior na po ako sa 4 parts. The rest ng templates na ginamit ko para sa DI & RL (Jimmyssem), SWT (Albeit), WE (Although such topics) same na para sa 1st and 2nd take ko. Kaya tingin ko po mas effective yung the speaker was discussing. Pero please take note din po na kaya tumaas din score ko nitong huli eh dahil mas okay performance ko sa WFD ngayon. Not sure sa scoring po ni ApeUni parang tanda ko never naman ako naka-10/10 kahit alin sa dalawa na yan triny ko parang nasa 8.5-9.5/10 lagi. Try niyo po ilimit sa 60-65 words lang yung SST during practice kung may maiiba sa score.

Hello Sir. Sa Speaking wala akong ginawang break talagang tuloy-tuloy from RA to ASQ. Pagdating naman Sir sa Writing part dun ako nakarest. Sa SWT usually 3-4 mins ko lang natatapos each yun so may tirang 6-7 mins per question usually 2 items yun kaya sinasagad ko lang time till 9 mins siguro bago inext para nakapahinga ko bago mag-WE. Sa WE ganun din usually 10-12 mins tapos ko na essay ko kaya nirereview ko 3-4 times kung may error pa sa spelling, tenses, punctuations at SV agreement. Ganun din sinasagad ko mga 19 mins bago i-next. Sa reading ito ang hardest para sakin. Wala talagang extra oras sakin dito. Basta ang ginagawa ko focus sa FITB at ROP tapos shotgun sa MC questions. Sa Listening, separate na 10 mins yung SST usually 5-7 mins ko natatapos so sinasagad ko lang din mga 9 mins bago isubmit para ready ako sa next parts kasi ambilis ng oras sa Listening. Ang technique ko dito Sir shotgun na sa MC questions tapos dun sa HCS binabasa ko na agad choices while listening sa recording tapos kung ano una kong mapili na tama yun na agad sinasagot ko sayang sa oras mababa lang points nito. Ang main reason bakit ko binibilisan sa ibang parts ng Listening eh para maka-save ako ng at least 5-6 mins para matira sa WFD usually 3-4 items yun eh tapos hirap kasi ko dun para may time to rest bago magnext question para din mas marecall ko yung recording. Nasa signature ko po Sir yung detailed tips kung interesado kayo. Good luck po!!!
