Hi, just want to share my experience on my first attempt sana. Got denied to take the test on-site dahil di ako naka follow ng instructions upon signing up, payment is non-refundable and need to rebook a test and pay again. Just want to remind everyone to place their Middle Name after the first name while signing up.
Anyways, can anyone share their PTE voucher please. Planning to take the test this week. Thank you very much!

Oo nga, anong test center yan? Ako wala namang middle name before nagtake ng exam. Pinaupdate ko nalang sa customer service via email before releasing of results kasi yun ang sabi sakin ng test proctor nung exam day. Inupdate naman nila.

When I sat on my PTE late November wala rin ako middle name. After taking the exam, I read na maraming di nakapag exam dahil walang middle name which caused a mismatch sa passport daw. I tried to check if I can add my middle name noon pero it was too late. Yung agent ko naman said na okay lang walang middle name.
I guess, depende sa magchecheck din ng ID? Sa ACE ako nag take.
Based sa nabasa ko around December, dati raw may middle name field tapos inalis na nila at naging cause ng issue sa maraming Filipinos kasi we don't use our middle name unless there's a field for it.

Grabe sayang yung pag book, kung dahil doon hindi nakapag test si OP. Hindi naman basta bastang amount yung PTE
Extra careful na dapat before taking PTE ngayon.

During our time , middle names were not taken , hindi ko rin napansin yung prompt na for first name(s) you can enter the middle name as well , dinosaur na kasi at may existing account na since 2018 haha so rebook lang ng rebook.
Be careful na lang pla , kaya cguro hindi na maka change ng request details is because less than 24 hours left na lang bago yung examinations as per above pwede pa magchange ng details if otherwise.

Chineck ko yung sakin. During test day, wala pa akong middle name.
Napaaga ako sa exam centre (cuppage) ng 1hr siguro pero pinag register na ako agad. Doon sinabi sakin ng proctor na wala akong middle name and she instructed me to email customer service to have it updated. So nag email ako agad pagkaupo sa waiting area attaching copy of my passport habang naghihintay papasukin kami sa test room. Medyo natagalan lang results ng pte ko, after 2days dumating, but reflected na yung middle name ko sa results letter.

IT WAS AN EXPENSIVE MISTAKE FOR ME. DI AKO PINA TAKE NG EXAM kahit onsite na ako AT NO REFUND DIN. Kaya nagbayad ulit ako to take the exam again. Kaya para po dun sa magtitake ng exam, make sure may middle name na kasama ang first name nyo. Lalo na dun sa mga nagtake na ng pte exam in the past.
Actually, I took the exam two years ago, kaya kumpiyansa ako na makaka take ako ulit at di magkakaproblema. Little did I know na may ganyan pala na patakaran ang pte ngayong 2024.
Before my exam, I updated my personal details sa pte account ko. But, nka disable yung pagchange dun sa first name, but all other details like address and phone number, pwede ma change. Pero yung name di po pwede ma change, kaya I thought okay na kasi nagtake na naman ako dati pa, bale second take ko na ito.
Upon arriving sa test center, yun na, di tlga ako pinayagan. Kahit nagrequest ako na idelay nlng yung paglabas ng result ko, hintayin na maupdate yung first name ko. Kaya no choice, but to pay again and take the test ulit after na ma update ang first name ko na may kasamang middle name.
I took the exam overseas, sa ibang country, hindi sa pinas.
