    Congrats sa mga nakapasa na :) nagbunga na ang perseverance :) All the best sa next stage!!!

    Hi @loudandclear, di ba sa IDP Singapore ka nag-take? Kasi ako wala pa rin results. I've been querying sa online since midnight, laging "Result not found" palagi :( Holiday pa naman ngayon sa Singapore.
    Nasa phils po ako.

    @loudandclear, thank you sa confirmation. Kaya pla mukhang kaming mga taga-SG lang affected sa delay ng result.

    Anyway, congrats ulit sa iyo :) Tuloy na tuloy na EOI ! All the best po.

    Below is their reply to my email inquiry regarding the issue:

    "Sorry for the inconvenience, we have been informed by Cambridge that the results will only be uploaded today. As the test centre is not allowed to release the result before the 13th day and we were closed for the long weekend. You should be able to view your results online today. The results was released just this morning at 10am so we appreciate your patience while Cambridge uploads it online for all our candidates. The results will only be released today, as stated on your exam notice and told to all candidates when they came for their speaking test. It was not released on Friday as it was a public holiday. Thank you for your kind understanding."

    Tinawagan ko din, ganoon din ang sinabi. Check check nalang ulit natin later. Sabi nila it will take some time daw bago maging searchable sa website. Excited na kinakabahan :)

    Saw mine as well, and the result is just too disappointing. I never thought that I’ll have a marked 7 for reading coz I assumed that I could ace that part or at least a band 8. Well… the rest is tragedy. Oh boy, it really broke my heart big time. Huhuhu…

    I’m thinking of retaking for the 2nd time, this time in BC and most probably by next month. Kelangan ko na talaga magfocus sa pagppractice. Hayy.. di pala pwede ang petiks lang. hahaha..

    Saw mine as well, and the result is just too disappointing. I never thought that I’ll have a marked 7 for reading coz I assumed that I could ace that part or at least a band 8. Well… the rest is tragedy. Oh boy, it really broke my heart big time. Huhuhu…

    I’m thinking of retaking for the 2nd time, this time in BC and most probably by next month. Kelangan ko na talaga magfocus sa pagppractice. Hayy.. di pala pwede ang petiks lang. hahaha..

    di din nakatulog c hubby looking at his result.disassstah!! d makaget over sa reading na 6 where he thought maperfect niya haha,ano kaya nangyari dun?!

    well well well..retake!! never give up!

    @kickerz i don't think so. kabilin bilinan sa isang masterclass na never ever fake your accent kasi trained ang mga examiner. so, alam nila kung minemorize mo lang ung sinasabi mo o kung natural ba yung usage mo ng English.

    To all who who have taken the exam twice or more, and successfully made it. Is it better to retake it, sooner? I have waited for 3 months, but still I was short .5 points for Listening. Now I have this dillema if I should schedule the nearest exam date, altho aabutan pa rin talaga ako ng fee increase. :(

    actually ikaw makakasagot nyan..if you don't need more time to review then take the nearest exam date.sa case mo kung listening module lng, baka nagkataon lng na mahirap yung test or kulang ka lng sa tulog...paglalo kasi natin pinatagalan baka maabutan nanaman ng panibagong amendments.
