If you're only looking for a 7, you should not only book the test again, but try for a remark. I hear it's worth it when it comes to the writing part.

Guest prashyt Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Hi Guys, Thanks for your support and wishes derham,Sol2Oz,Dono,Heather Law,path2aus. I was bloody pissed off on the whole system as i always missed it by .5. I needed 7 in all. Although i'd always miss by 0.5. Even rechecking didn't work for me, but its all a history now. I have got what i wanted after those disappointing fridays Olga; Thanks mate, well there wasn't a major difference although i did practice a lot. I purchased an online course from Scotts English and practiced almost all excercise. rigman: Give it for remarking; and in the meanwhile book another test. I know its frustrating to the core. Believe me i've been in Aus since 4.5 years and after 1 month my visa is due to expire. If i wouldn't have got this time; it would have been "Goodbye" for me. Just be paitent mate. good luck.

rigman Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 Hey Sol2Oz, thanks....do you know how much they charge for rechecking and how long does it take....i was thinking same i.e. to give a chance to both, a recheck and retake. Congratz prashyt, your efforts stand for "you never fail unless you stop trying" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

derham Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 I am the same, dont get me wrong the 176 is much better (need less deposit for a mortgage, first time buyers grant, healthcare and most importantly security) but I dont have the time to keep trying (turn 45 next March). But we both might be celebrating tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sol2Oz Posted November 4, 2011 Author Share Posted November 4, 2011 L 6.5 /R 6.5 /W8.5 /S 8.5 ,going to take it one more time , then i think the dream is over do take it again, but don't think like that. Think positive. Last time was my third time, and if I fail, (which I hope I don't) I'm not giving up. Prashyt took it 11 times and finally passed - very happy they now are!!

Heather Law Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 L 6.5 /R 6.5 /W8.5 /S 8.5 ,going to take it one more time , then i think the dream is over When did you sit? Did you get your results online? Don't give up... i am waiting for my third result...first time i got 7.5, 6.5, 8, 9...second 9,9,7.5,9...third time ???? I think just knowing what to expect gives you the upper hand, but you can never tell how you think you have done! I was both gob smacked and gutted with my second result!

Dono Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 I "failed" the first two times, this time I got 9/9/8.5/9. So really it's sometimes just a case of luck (I think the one I passed on 22/10 was just an easy paper or something)... don't give up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
