Yes we chose Yoruba as most spoken.then others as reason for test.
Under specify we wrote,for job related reasons(promotion).

My speaking test was awful in my opinion but for the discussion I had with the examiner prior to the start of the test

@Omooloriredade


Can you clarify the above statement please?

jukeblam:


Sure. Download the MSA booklet form Engineers Australia website to know the minimum requirement- amongst other info.



The occupation ceiling is almost full, with less than 200 slots left; if you can increase your overall points, do. Maybe rewrite english test and get 20 points (that's if you don't have that already), it will increase your chances of getting an invite on time. Mechanical engineers is now on pro-rata, so you need 70 points to get an invite.

diggy4real:


@jukeblam...This is not encouraging at all for prospective applicant like me....since it is on Pro-rata ....does it mean one can't apply for 190 if one doesn't meet up with 70points or are States sponsoring 190 not considering mechanical engineers?

Alphadoor:


Don't get it twisted sir,
You can apply for 190 but you have checked the state requirements first to know their terms and conditions as each states's own differ

Please those that have "spanked" PTE test in the past, your help is needed here. Did you have to choose another reason other than "immigration/PR" as the reason for writing the test before you got your high marks?.

jamson:

I chose immigration as my purpose for taking both my PTE and IELTS. What I feel especially for IELTS is that they are quick to give up to 7-7.5 in their subjective parts, but anything more, you must be exceptionally good.

Mamajaz,
Pls no vex ooo

Hello Fam,

I need advice. I want to migrate to Australia but dont know if i stand a good chance. Below are my credentials

*I have an accounting degree, but worked as a banker for 10 years {thus, no accounting experience} :
*I am 38
* my ielts scores for general are L8. 5, R7. 5, W7. 5, S7. 5
* I am married with 2 kids
*I

Omooloriredade:


I don't think this is necessary. From my own experience, it seemed to have worked in my favour. I filled "Immigration" as my reason for writing the exam. My result was a miracle. I couldn't get myself to study well for the exam. My speaking test was awful in my opinion but for the discussion I had with the examiner prior to the start of the test. He must have graded that as well. Speaking=7.5.
Writing nko, I disobeyed/disregarded an important rule of completing 250 words for task 2 and also didn't meet up with the required word count for task 1. Word count for task 2 was just about 200 while task 1 was a little less than 150.
Writing=7
Reading=7.5
Listening =8.0
To me, it seemed I was aided in the speaking and writing aspects......like my performance was adjudged to be sufficient for Australian immigration purposes. So all nah speculation. No one knows for a fact and could actually be unnecessary misrepresenting the purpose of writing the test. I'm sure many have 'spanked' this test regardless.

Pardon my long essay and plenty grammar.

Thank you

Bnimz:
Please, please, make we no dey tackle each other for here... cheers

tyosho:


Oga,I spoke about my experience and how it MIGHT have influenced my getting 20points.

Speak about yours that fetched you 10points without quoting me and saying what you feel is necessary or not.
Like Alphadoor adviced,people should study hard regardless of whatever reason they end up choosing as reason for the test.
