    Hello po. May idea po ba kayo kung saan pwede bumili ng erasable notebook dito sa Pilipinas gaya nung sa actual pte exam? Gusto ko kasi mapractice at masanay sa pagsusulat gamit yun. Naninibago po kasi ako kapag magka iba ang gamit ko sa practice at actual exam. Salamat

    This is my 3rd time I took the exam. saan kaya ako ngkakamali, S 68 L 80 R 79 W 82.. Sa ngaun nandito ako sa middle east kumukuha ng exam. Same lang din ba kung saan ka ngtake na medyo mahina ung volume during nung practice recording bago mag start ang exam?? Tapos nung 2nd take ko, nasagot ko 9/10 sa RS pero 71 lang score ko sa speaking. Parang ayaw ako palampasin ng 71. May problema ba kaya testing center or may problema ung headphones. Sinubukan ko na malakas ang boses at mdyo mahina bakit ganun pa din score ko.

    Practice na lang siguro bro sa clarity, intonation, speed, pauses/ stops. If nag aaverage sa 71 highly unlikely na equipment issue.

    Question lang po, correct po ba na mag focus ako sa fluency at pronounciation instead of content. Mostly po nung nag practice po ako ng RS, almost half lang nakukuha ko pero mas mataas nakukuha kong score sa AI practice dahil sa fluency, instead makuha ko lahat ng words pero medyo may hesitation at pause..

    In my experience, nag focus po ako sa content, pronunciation, and fluency. Pero mas mataas ang points na galing sa pronunciation and fluency parang 5 yata each compare sa content na 3. Di ko lang sure if ganyan pa rin. Once marinig niyo po yung sentence, intindihin niyo po. Mas madaling ulitin ang sentence pag nagets niyo and mas kalmado ka to repeat it, kaya maiiwasan yung hesitation, mas mataas makukuha sa fluency. Mas mataas points ng fluency kesa content. Sa actual exam ko, parang 2 out of 10 RS ang completely naulit ko. Yung 8 is around 50% ko lang naulit pero fluent and dire diretso lang. Luckily 90 nakuha ko.

    Agree kay @reemon. Also, ako rin may na-miss sa RS kasi ang hirap ng mga nakuha ko, pero dire-diretso lang and minsan pinalitan ko na lang ng "something" para lang fluent pa rin at walang pauses.

    un akin naman sa speaking din ako nahihirapan, ung tatlong category nakakakuha ako ng superior. pero sa tingin ko sa fluency at malamang dyan tlga ako nadadali. ngayon ang pinapraktis ko na sa speaking is ung mabilis.

    Yes, Jimmyssem template. Sa mock tests, 90 ako sa speaking using his template sa DI and RL. Pero sa actual, nagulat ako 61 lang ako sa speaking.

    For me, yung official Pearson mock tests (not pinaka-accurate, but closest I would say). Pero if practice talaga na pangmatagalan, APEUni kasi yung material nila ay galing yata from past PTE exams. Sa actual exam ko, may lumabas na 2 or 3 questions na napag-praktisan ko sa APEUni at Pearson mocks.

    I also used yung DI at RL template ni Jimmyssem and naka-90 sa Speaking. Pero nung August ako nag-take so not sure if applicable pa. Although based sa comments sa video niya, as of 7 days ago, okay pa (sort niyo yung comment by Newest first):

    Umabot ka po ba ng at least 26 seconds sa pagsasalita for each question? In my experience, yung una kong sabak sa mga mock tests, mababa Speaking ko kasi medyo mabilis pagsasalita ko, 'di ako masyadong mindful sa length ng recording ko. Sa actual exam, kalmado lang ang pacing at tutok ako sa recording time ko. Pinaabot ko ng 28 seconds bawat sagot for each question.

    Sa mga nakapag PTE na po, ano pong mock test or practice app/website ang so far pinaka accurate? Thanks!

    For me, yung official Pearson mock tests (not pinaka-accurate, but closest I would say). Pero if practice talaga na pangmatagalan, APEUni kasi yung material nila ay galing yata from past PTE exams. Sa actual exam ko, may lumabas na 2 or 3 questions na napag-praktisan ko sa APEUni at Pearson mocks.

    Thank you very much, sa Apeuni kasi ako babad. Kaya lang kailangan din ata ng subscription sa Pearson hehe.

    Maganda ring pang-practice yung sa ApeUni na mock tests, kasi ang dami. Ang ginawa ko na lang is spinace out ko kung kailan ite-take yung Pearson mock tests (kasi onti lang, one time lang pwede i-take tapos medyo mahal). Tapos in-between, mock tests ako sa ApeUni. Good luck!

    Salamat sa input, diko pa din nagagamit ang mock test ko sa Apeuni. I explore yung Pearson mock test. October ang Exam ko. So far, erratic and results ko sa DI and RL. Hindi effective minsan ang template ni Jimmysemm. Dito kasi ako nagrereview sa work hehe.

    Ginagamit ko for yung Template ni Apeuni, I'm wondering kung meron gumamit nito na mataas ang actual Speaking score sa PTE? Di din ako masyado comfortable sa memorization, mas type ko yung free flowing, na basta ang theory saulo ko.
