You're already aware of your weakness as regards PTE. However, with constant practice you can overcome. You've also done excelently well in IELTS , speaking especially. Why not excerise a little patience for the (+ve) remark outcome? Or how are you very sure you'll get better scores if you rewrite IELTS. Be optimistic...an uncle got a positive remark of 0.5 early this month. You can too. What point are you at? And have you considered state nomination?

Thank you so much. You've helped me gain perspective. I applied for NSW nomination as well. I'll just wait till January when the remark will be out.

Hey People!!!!

I've been reading through this thread for a while now, I've written IELTS twice and my band scores are both times S:8, W:7.5, R:8, L:9 & I've sent the most recent one for a remark which, which will be out in Jan. I've already done ACS Assessment without any hitch.

Now my issue is should I study for another IELTS just in case the remark doesn't go well or practice for PTE. N/B: I stammer in stressful situations, so the speaking part for PTE is a bit of a problem for me.

I just need to know what to do next, I hate sitting around doing nothing.
