    Hello po. Generic question lang po. Pag nakuha po ba yung results ng PTE, san ito i-susubmit? Sa organization body mismo? For example po sa akin ay sa ACS (Australian Computer Society)? Thanks po,

    Question lang about sa SWT TOPIC.. meron ba gumagamit dito nung strategy na..

    Isusulat mo lang ung mga Nouns.. then separated each with comma. Starting the sentence with capital letters. then adding moreover in the middle and furthermore before the end. then duon sa last 2 nouns separated with comma and AND. gumagana ba sya sa mismong exam.. gumagana kasi sya sa apeuni.

    Finally got superior on my 2nd take.
    Nakatulong ApeUni na mock test at practice at tips sa youtube.
    Took my exam yesterday 7am and got results around 9pm yesterday as well. I didn't expect to get perfect 90 for all sections since I remember making mistakes with RS for around 3 items. I guess the actual test is more forgiving than ApeUni.

    For those who are struggling with DI and RL and have a hard time memorizing the one popularly taught by jimmyssem, I suggest this alternative which I used. I swear this is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay easier than the one from jimmyssem but I guess it's not known by a lot of people yet.

    goodluck

    so ayun na ngaaaaaaa
    July 20 test taker here, finally may result na!
    (My first take happened last June 24, pero isa ako sa mga nadale ng application error ni PTE, first question pa lang sa RL, nag error na, so hindi na pinatuloy yung test namin that time)
    Thank you LORD and big thanks to this COMMUNITY!!!
    Thank you sa WIFE ko na magaling mag COACH dahil nakuha ko agad ang desired result namin!!!

    siguro for now ang tip ko is more on psychology
    wag po tayo masyado ma-pressure, english test lang po yan
    makakatulong ng malaki kapag relaxed tayo
    dahil for sure mae-execute nyo yung ni-practice ninyo
    believe in yourself, pero shempre, do your job to practice efficiently

    yung mga templates naman, ang ginamit ko lang din is same sa mga materials na nandito like yung sa DI na "the given image...", etc..

    good luck po sa ating lahat :)

    @heyitstal Was in the same place when I started my journey, so sharing some things that helped me:

    • Learn the components of the exam: Speaking, Writing, Reading, Listening. Under each component, may different exam types.
    • What I did was browse this specific PTE thread. I went back a few pages, mga entries from 2020 onward. Then I listed all the advice, checked, chose, and mixed and matched just to fit my learning style and approach. There's a LOT of information here so for me the most important is to get the basics down and simplify. Na-info overload kasi ako! Haha.
    • APEUni was such a big help to acquaint me with each exam type and organise my understanding of the scoring system. Ito talaga yung best tool IMO.
    • I started with the conceptual part of learning โ€” just absorbed information muna and did not practice agad. Note that that's my learning style, though. Once naintindihan ko na yung PTE, that's when I started practicing.
    • For templates that need memorising, I highly recommend writing them down. Helps with memory retention talaga!

    Meron free si apeuni. Like what others have mentioned try to understand the exam itself. Eto dn ung path na ginawa and treated it like a board exam. Understand the exam ano un type ng test and ano un components then try mo un mg-answer ng exam thru apeuni, language academy or other free pte exam to gauge your capabilities then go na sa focused practice/review. Hope this helps goodluck!

    @heyitstal Answered na above ni @ispidprik, hehe. But if you have the budget I recommend purchasing it, kahit a month before the exam. Or di naman yung PTE Pearson mock tests. The only difference is that APEUni has more practice questions, tests, scoring, and guidance for a cheaper price (around 800โ€“900 pesos), while Pearson gives you only the mock tests. Best of luck!

    Hello @samcham. Just to share with you, natry ko na po both sched. Yung 12 nn mas konti takers kesa 2:15 pm (in my experience only). Mas okay para sakin yung 12 nn kasi di kasing ingay pag sobrang daming kasabay. Kaya lang dapat maensure na maaga dadating para may time pa maglunch unless same po tayo na preferred wag kumain before mag-exam.

    Finally got superior on my 2nd take.
    Nakatulong ApeUni na mock test at practice at tips sa youtube.
    Took my exam yesterday 7am and got results around 9pm yesterday as well. I didn't expect to get perfect 90 for all sections since I remember making mistakes with RS for around 3 items. I guess the actual test is more forgiving than ApeUni.

    For those who are struggling with DI and RL and have a hard time memorizing the one popularly taught by jimmyssem, I suggest this alternative which I used. I swear this is waaaaaaaaaaaaaay easier than the one from jimmyssem but I guess it's not known by a lot of people yet.

    goodluck

    sir congrats.. napanood ko din yan. gumagana pala sya. pero kapag ginamit mo sya sa mock test. ang score mo is mababa lang. salamat sir sa pg update.

    DI ko alam kung legit, sa iba lang ata gumagana yan. pasado nmn ako sa recent na exam ko pero 72 lang score ko sa speaking category, di ko alam tlga kung gumagana. ung content din kc pde mo masilip, ilang seconds lang. hehe. tska na ako mag share kapag nka superior na ako, meron ako nakuhang template ng DI at RL, kpg ng prapraktis ako sa apeuni, 75-82 /90 plge score ko. talino nung indian na un, pati template ng SWT at SST nya nakatulong.
