Recently, I have been preparing for PTE test for my study abroad.
Until now, I have taken part in the test for two times, but I still failed the exam.
Honestly speaking, my goal is not unreachable, which was over 50 in single subject and over 58 in average scores.

Then, I got this:

It’s an embarrassing score which the average part is ok, but only one point gap on Speaking part, which really depressed me.
Except the testing fee (almost 2000 RMB, it’s not cheap!), I just felt that the destiny plays a joke with me.

While I was writing this post, I was thinking about what should I do next at the same time, so it might be chaotic.

I suddenly realized that studying abroad is a long journey. Even if I had passed the exam successfully, there still have been many problems that I need to face in the future.
For example, if I want to work there, I must get higher scores than 65, whose difficulty is much higher, so it’s obvious that I would need to retry for many times in the future.

Look at my first time scores:

every part is better than before, so I did a good job, whereas not good enough!
In other words, I should be glad for such scores, because it proves two things:

• My direction is right, don’t be afraid, just keep going without doubt.
• Working hard is effective, sweat never cheats you.

After the inner thinking and review, I got much better mood. (self-adjustment is one of personal essential abilities!)

So what should I do next?
Doubtlessly, getting ready for next PTE test!

More specifically, the steps include:

• According to the report of the result, finding the weaknesses of single item
• Improving the quantity of training, which makes me adapt every part of the exam
• Shortening the preparation period, keeping focus (15 days is maximum for me)
• Finding a better practice platform for more accurate mock test and analysis (especially for Speaking part)

Once you beat yourself, you will be unstopable!

See you in 10.25.
