Repeat sentence sa pananaw ko ay halong preparation at swerte.
Prepare - try mo apeuni repeat sentence or sa youtube mga repeat sentence. Pakikinggan mo tapos uulitin mo (you will speak) muscle memory pina practice dito at kung pano mo maaalala.
Make sure to eat healthy for the week, kasi it helps yourself well physically. Make sure well rested ka din. These are the things akala natin walang halaga, pero these intangibles are the secret.
Yung sa swerte, minsan inaral at expect mo yung difficult sentences (long and complex), yun pala normal and easy lang (short and straightforward sentence).
What works best for me is to understand the entire sentence and repeat it. Meron yung mga tipong the professor informed the students that the collection of the documents will be after the class on Friday.
So for me is prep sa katawan, prep sa utak and swerte. (Coming from a person na mahina sa memorization hehehe). I mumbled once pero 90 pa din speaking ko.

Hi po! san po maganda kumuha ng mock exam? sa PTE official or sa APEUni? Ano yung pinaka magandang recommendation dito? Thanks!

Depends kung ano yung need mo! If regular mock testing, kunwari weekly, APEUni ang mas sulit. If parang pre-exam tester lang talaga, to get a feel of the real thing, PTE is best. Ako I purchased both: APEUni for frequent mock tests per component, tapos PTE exam yung isang pasadahan through all components, real-time simulation kumbaga.

hi patulong po..nahihirapan ako sa Repeat sentence. palagi ako lng nabablangko pag magsasalita na ako kahit naiintindahan ko naman. need ko po proficient score or mas okay po ang superior…
Joined: May 30, 2022
dito rin po ako nahihirapan nung una. tinry ko po lahat ng method pero ito po ung pinka nagwork for me
1. pumipikit po ako habang nagsasalita ung speaker. para mas mainternalize ko tapos didilat lang ako to check the timer kung time for me to speak na.
2. ung RS po talaga is swertehan sa haba ng salita. so what I did is to practice. nagreresearch po ako ng repeat sentence na 1 and half hour sa youtube. kay moni pte po. 3 beses paulit ulit ko po un pinapakinggan araw araw. and when i listen to it, irerepeat ko din sya like the usual exam. gingawa ko po itong audio habang nasa office ako, and fortunately kaya po ng utak ko magmulti task kahit nagtratrabaho haha.. nirerecite ko sya ng pabulong or habang nakamask ako sa office pra akala nila kumakanta lang ako hahaha, ito po ung pinaka nagwork skin, kasi prang muscle memory sya. tuwing nakakarinig ako ng sentence automatic ko na sya na kayang ulitin.
3. nag research po talga ako ng anything about sa repeat sentence. I also tried different techniques sa ape uni. what i found out is mas mataas ang points ng fluency kesa sa content, which is the same sa mga napanuod ko sa youtube. kung 79+ goal mo, at least 80 percent lang ng word need mo macatch. just make it as fluent as possible.
4. kung may nalimutan ako words, pinpalitan ko po ng "something" pra di ako mawala sa focus and fluency
5. and because i found out na mas mataas ang fluency kesa content, minsan, kapag sobrang haba, kahit first 3 words and first last words lang marecite ko. ang mahalaga fluent talga ang pagkakasabi mo.
6. sa actual exam, ang iksi lang talga ng mga sentence. so more on muscle memory talga to na masanay kang nag rerepeat ng sinasabi, and ung confidently mo sya irerepeat na di ka nagstutter.

passport lang po ang need na dalhin sa exam day. although, i brought extra valid IDs (driver's and PRC para sure) and extra black ballpen if may ipafill out. fyi po, sa trident makati po, pinaparemove ung jacket sa exam room and lahat ng laman ng pockets even handkerchief, so avoid wearing manipis na damit or sandos po for females. not sure lang po sa ibang testing centers.

I would like to say thank you everyone for giving us the strategies which are posted here, it helps me a lot to achieve the Superior Level goal. I was struggling in Reading but because the tips here from @chemistmom, I made it through. thank you.
I'm just a classic example of "never give up", as I did take PTE several times, and finally GOD has given it to me.
Thank you Lord God & Thank you everyone here.
