0:00PTE writing, 90 out of 90. Trust me,
0:02there are a lot of strategies that many
0:04of the students would be missing [music]
0:05out on. For instance, in summarize
0:07written text, you cannot copy the words
0:09that already have dot in it. If you are
0:11not aware of this, and if you copy that,
0:13software may trigger that as a full stop
0:15and get your zero. And this way, there
0:17could be a lot of strategies that you're
0:18missing out on, and due to which, you
0:20would be always getting lesser scores
0:22than expected. [music] Want to

1:14right, without any further delay, let's
1:16straight away get right into the PTE
1:17writing. The strategies which I knew
1:19earlier for a perfect 90 out of 90. Here
1:21we start. When we talk about PTE
1:23writing, there are four modules that
1:24contribute marks towards your writing
1:26section as far as PTE Academic is
1:28concerned. First is summarize written
1:30text, approximately 18 to 20 marks. Next
1:32comes essay writing, approximately 26 to
1:3430 marks. After that comes summarize
1:36spoken text, 12 to 15 marks. Remember,
1:39summarize spoken text contributes 12 to
1:4115 marks towards your writing for PTE
1:42Academic. Next comes write from
1:44dictation. Depending on the number of
1:46questions you get, sometimes three
1:47questions, 30 to 35 marks. Sometimes
1:49four questions, 40 plus marks to
1:51writing. So, before we start with the
1:52strategies that you wish you knew
1:54earlier, we want to make an important
1:55update through our portal
1:56skillsptewithnakul.com. We have added a
1:58new feature called mini mock. From the
2:01mini mock, we have speaking, writing,
2:02and other things. You click on the
2:03writing, you see some mini mocks. You
2:05click the start test, and now you see
2:06one summarized written text, one essay
2:08writing, one summarized spoken text, and
2:10three write from dictation. Well, this
2:12will help you understand in least time
2:14possible how much marks you would get
2:17with respect to PTE writing in the main
2:18exam. If your concern is only writing,
2:20take the mini mock writing, spend only
2:2140 minutes, boom, you get your scores,
2:23an estimation of what you would get in
2:25the main exam. And also, you would be
2:26able to understand what all mistakes
2:27you've made, how to improve, and
2:29everything. All right, getting back to
2:31the video, let's start with the very
2:32first strategy that you wish you knew
2:35earlier, especially summarized written
2:36text for PTE Academic. You can use only
2:38one full stop, meaning only one dot. But
2:40let's say in the paragraph there is a
2:41sentence 1.6 million people, and you
2:44copy as it is. 1.6, that point is a dot.
2:48AI will definitely consider that, or
2:50mostly will consider that as a full
2:51stop. As a result, it's going to be big
2:53zero. In our portal as well, we have
2:54implemented the same, and people get
2:56zero, and they just bomb us
2:58through messages, what the hell is this?
2:59Give me my money back. I've written
3:01correctly, and look at this, it's giving
3:02zero. And then we tell them, click on
3:04the drop-down button, it gives you a
3:05reason as to why it is zero.
3:06So, the reality is, perhaps if you take
3:09some words that contain already
3:10containing full stops or dots, you may
3:12end up getting zero, especially for PTE
3:14Academic. Avoid such words. Now, the
3:15solution is, how to avoid them? Maybe 1
3:17million you can use, or million people,
3:19or remove that entire word, doesn't
3:21matter. People you can use, numerous
3:22people, doesn't matter. But 1.6, or US
3:25U.S., you don't use such. Hope you're
3:29getting it, all these are potential
3:31barriers that could definitely take a
3:33dip in your writing marks. Remember
3:35this. The strategy number two that you
3:36wish you knew earlier, especially in
3:38summarized written text. If you want 85
3:40plus in the writing, meaning eight bands
3:42writing, you cannot randomly take
3:44literally randomly four sentences and
3:45use a structure sentence one, comma,
3:47sentence two, semicolon, sentence three,
3:49comma, sentence four, full stop.
3:50Absolutely will not give you content
3:52four out of four. Remember, content is
3:54now four marks, as opposed to two marks
3:56what it was long time back last year. If
3:58you want to truly get content four out
3:59of four, you need to summarize,
4:01basically, the points. There could be a
4:02lot of things. Let's say it talks about
4:05important things in the first para.
4:06Second para it talks about drawbacks.
4:08And you take four sentences from the
4:09first paragraph. Second para entire
4:11thing you missed out on. So, you would
4:12be losing a lot of marks. And just
4:14copy-pasting will never ensure you get
4:15four out of four for the content. It's
4:17always best you take things in bits and
4:18pieces. And use the same structure.
4:20Definitely is copy-pasting will work.
4:22But literally, exactly as it is, simply
4:24pasting four sentences may not. If the
4:26first sentence has few keywords, you
4:27pick them up. Second sentence has some
4:28more. Third sentence has some more. You
4:30want to join them and do it. Recently, I
4:33made a video on summarize written text.
4:34You can refer the video somewhere here.
4:36That will explain you in detail about
4:38how to summarize, how to basically work
4:40on every kind of sentence like
4:42conversational type it could be. Poems
4:44it could be or general paragraph it
4:46could be. Also in our portal we have
4:47smart summarize written text tool. A new
4:50feature has been added. And with this
4:52smart tool you actually will get an
4:53answer as to why your content is three
4:55or two or one or four. Why it is so,
4:57what all things you have added, what all
4:59things you have missed. Core ideas two
5:00were there and you have added none.
5:02Major ideas six were there you have
5:03added one. And then you click on the
5:04analysis. You will see how much idea has
5:07been covered from the passage. Semantic
5:08match, how much of your idea is similar
5:11to my ideal summary. And what is the
5:13ideal reference summary. And every line,
5:14every sentence of the paragraph it gives
5:16you a summary and says have you covered
5:18this part? Partially covered, fully
5:19covered or completely missed. Each and
5:22everything this tool will guide you
5:23helping you understand what constitutes
5:26four out of four and what doesn't. Make
5:28use of this tool. Definitely worth
5:30trying it. The strategy number three
5:32with respect to again summarize written
5:33text for PTE Academic I would strongly
5:35recommend writing 65 plus 70 to 73. 70
5:38plus would be ideal and less than 75
5:39words for sure. Anywhere between 70 to
5:4173, 74 would be an ideal one to get more
5:44scores towards your content. And simply
5:46writing 75 may not give you four out of
5:48four unless you use most of the
5:49keywords, most of the key content, core
5:51ideas and the major ideas. Hope you are
5:53getting it. For PTE Core I would
5:54recommend writing 45 to 50. It's 25 to
5:5850 words for PTE Core. 5 to 75 words for
6:01PTE Academic. PTE Academic 70 and above
6:03less than 75. PTE code 40 and above less
6:06than 50. 45, 47 would be an ideal one.
6:09The next strategy is with respect to
6:10essay writing. Remember to always write
6:12between 200 to 300 words. Ideal word
6:14count 265, 270, 280. The more you write,
6:17the more mistakes you make for sure. But
6:19try to be on a higher side above 250,
6:22260, 270 because content is now six
6:24marks. Structure code and development
6:25six, general linguistic range six. As
6:27opposed to two marks last year, it is
6:30increased to six. To get more mark for
6:32the content, you will have to write a
6:33little more than what you used to write
6:34before. So I take on this at least 250
6:36plus words would be ideal and most
6:38importantly, whatever the main idea that
6:40you write, back it up with supporting
6:41point or example. It's always best to
6:44write main idea with supporting points
6:46or examples. Failing to do so, meaning
6:48just randomly shooting ideas will not
6:50get you scores. Always remember this.
6:52The next strategy again is with respect
6:53to essay writing. Always have a mixture
6:55of simple, compound, complex sentences.
6:57Read about it in the internet or you can
6:59check out my grammar videos. All in our
7:00course as well, we teach you what a
7:02simple sentence is, compound, complex
7:04sentences. Understand them, work on it,
7:06and accordingly implement your sentences
7:08using these three sentence structures.
7:10You got to have simple sentences. You
7:11got to have compound. You got to have
7:13complex. Just writing only complicated,
7:15very lengthy, lengthy complex or
7:16compound sentences may not mean you get
7:18more scores. Simple sentences are also
7:20important. Complex sentences are also
7:22important. Compound sentences are also
7:24important. So accordingly give weightage
7:26and distribute your sentence structure
7:27among these three equally. Remember
7:29this. The next strategy is again with
7:31respect to essay writing. If you want to
7:32get two out of two for the vocabulary,
7:34you don't have to cram some high-fi
7:35words from the ChatGPT or Gemini. Try to
7:37write the words that you're very
7:38comfortable with. Meaning write the
7:40words that actually fit in, that go with
7:43the sentence. For instance, look at this
7:45sentence. This development will create
7:47equality. Create equality Equality can
7:49never be created. Equality can only be
7:51promoted. So meaning there are some
7:53fixed phrases. You got to use that word.
7:55This is what vocabulary means. It's not
7:57about simply taking some words from the
7:59internet or memorizing some repeated
8:01essay questions with powerful words in
8:03between. Memorize them, cram them every
8:04day, and you get that question, write
8:06it, and get your scores. You don't.
8:07That's the reality and all this hard
8:08work, all this circus definitely not
8:10needed. Work on your English, read
8:12books, automatically you will be able to
8:13write something that actually makes
8:15sense and you will definitely be using
8:16words that actually fit in. Remember
8:19this. The next strategy, seventh one is
8:20with respect to summarize spoken text.
8:22Absolutely no templates, don't use
8:23templates. If you truly want, you can
8:25use speaker talked about firstly,
8:26secondly, firstly the speaker said.
8:28Something of this are still fine, but
8:29remember templates do not contribute any
8:31scoring towards your content. Content is
8:33now evaluated for four marks for your
8:35PTE Academic, two marks for PTE Core. If
8:37we talk about PTE Academic, to get four
8:39out of four for the content, templates
8:40in any way will not help. The lecture
8:42talked about the lecture talked about
8:44these four words were never present in
8:45the audio, then how can you think that
8:47this template is giving me more marks?
8:49Just because your friend told and got
8:5090, your friend would have gotten 90
8:52because of the content, not because of
8:54template. Your friend is skilled, has a
8:55good listening skill. You may not. And
8:57if you follow your friend's suggestion
8:59because your friend got 90, friend
9:00believed that he got it 90 because of
9:02template. And you follow template, you
9:03get 60 because templates are not going
9:05in any way going to get you more scores
9:07towards your content. Templates will
9:08serve only one function. What is the
9:10function? Help you cross the word limit.
9:1250 to 70 words for PTE Academic, 20 to
9:1430 words for PTE Core. Let's say you're
9:16sitting for PTE Academic, you try to
9:17take down the notes, you wrote
9:18everything on your own. It is 42 words.
9:21Now, if you click submit, zero. You have
9:23to cross 50 words. The talk was about
9:25firstly, the speaker said. Eight words,
9:28nine words, 51 words.
9:30Submit it and finish it off. Form
9:32minimum two you get, but this is not
9:33going to increase your content scores.
9:35Always remember this. And to increase
9:37your content score, you need to write
9:39something exactly matching the audio if
9:41possible. You can try to write something
9:42on your own, definitely yes, but if you
9:44change the meaning from the original
9:45audio, you will be penalized. So, it's
9:48best you take down some four or five
9:49phrases. Let me show you a quick
9:51demonstration through our portal
9:52skills.pte.with.nakul.com.
9:53Here we start. All right, randomly I'm
9:55just opening the first sentence. I'm
9:56clicking on the metrics because I've
9:58already done this. You see here, this is
10:00my response. Let's increase the size. My
10:03response at the bottom, "A navy is a
10:04branch of nation's armed forces for
10:05conducting military operations at sea."
10:07And you see here, at the top, "The navy
10:09is a branch of nations armed forces
10:10primarily responsible for conducting
10:12military operations at sea. Exactly as
10:14it is taking four sentences. The next
10:16one I've written it ensures safe passage
10:17for trade.
10:19It ensures ensuring safe passage for
10:21trade.
10:22And then navies typically operate on
10:23various types of ships. Navies
10:26typically operate various types of
10:28ships.
10:29They also or navy also plays a crucial
10:31role in peacekeeping operations around
10:32the world. Navy also play a crucial role
10:34in
10:35peacekeeping operations around the
10:36world.
10:37Each designed for a specific task. Each
10:41design over here for a specific each
10:43design for a specific task six words.
10:45And then navies also employ advanced
10:47system for the strategic decision.
10:49Navies also employ advanced
10:51technology here advanced system for
10:53defense and strategic advantages
10:55decisions. 90% or 95% of the words that
10:58I've written in this summary
11:00belong to the audio. 10,000% I have to
11:03get four out of four. But try to write
11:04four or five phrases. Each phrase of
11:06this length eight to 10 words. 100%
11:08you'll get four out of four for the
11:09content. The next one is with respect to
11:11write from dictation. You cannot extra
11:12words. You can add extra spellings. You
11:15can write in any order. Full stop comma
11:17not mandatory. Capital letter small
11:19letter not mandatory. You can write in
11:21any case that you wish. But what matters
11:24is whatever you write should match the
11:25audio. Usually we add singular noun
11:28plural noun. If the audio says they went
11:29to market. It's market markets. Develop
11:32the project. Develop developed develops.
11:35Hope you're getting a singular noun
11:36plural noun present form past form
11:38involved with this. All these are the
11:39confusing words.
11:40Just with listening to the audio you may
11:42not be clear about it. So I add extra
11:44words. Addition of these words like
11:46singular plural alternative options will
11:47definitely ensure you get better scores.
11:49Remember this. The next one ninth one
11:51with respect to again write from
11:52dictation. You should always follow a
11:54short note method. So what is the short
11:56note method? How it can help you? Let me
11:58show you a quick demonstration through
11:59our portal. Here we start. All right
12:01randomly I'm just opening uh
12:03question. Uh don't do anything just
12:05observe how I do it.
12:08>> Gratitude turns what we have into enough
12:10and more.
12:14In gratitude, done what we have into
12:18enough.
12:20And
12:23more done becomes
12:25turned
12:27turns
12:28and this will be removed.
12:32Into spelling, I don't want to risk. A A
12:34the the I'm adding and this is what my
12:36answer looks like. This is how you
12:38should be doing in the exam. Done turns
12:40done A A the the into if you have doubt
12:43on the spelling, add extra
12:44possibilities. But in the beginning,
12:46take the things in short notes. Don't
12:47have to write every word completely. If
12:49you do that, writing down the last few
12:51words will be very challenging because
12:52it takes a lot of time.
12:54Try taking down in short notes, two to
12:56three letters of each word as opposed to
12:58taking one letter, first letter of each
12:59word because when you come back and read
13:01just single letter, it will be very
13:03difficult for you to figure out as to
13:04what you wrote. It's always better to
13:06write two, three letters of each word,
13:07quickly finish it off and then expand
13:09them and then add extra words. This way,
13:11with some articles towards the extra
13:13spellings, extra verbs, extra nouns,
13:14done and dusted. This is the real method
13:17for your write from dictation. In the
13:19last strategy, in your listening
13:20section, the last section is write from
13:22dictation. It is not timed. Your essay
13:24could be timed. Your summarized written
13:25text could be timed. Spoken text could
13:27be timed. If you don't click submit
13:28button in essay, summarized written text
13:30or email writing for PT core or
13:31summarized spoken text, automatically it
13:33will be submitted. It will be taken into
13:34consideration. Write from dictation,
13:36last question, you just typed, you did
13:37not click submit and finish the exam and
13:39timer ran off.
13:40What is the guarantee that last question
13:42will be saved? There is no guarantee and
13:43mostly it will not be saved. Though some
13:44people say I did not submit it, I still
13:46got more scores. But 90% of the students
13:49who have forgotten to click or who have
13:51ignored to click submit button before
13:52the timer expires and allowed the exam
13:54to finish on its own have faced problems
13:57in listening and writing both with a
13:58very low scores. With this I'm telling
14:00you, don't risk it. Before the timer
14:02expires in the entire listening, click
14:03submit and finish off the exam. I think
14:05that's all for today. Really, really
14:06hope this was an informative content. If
14:09you believe the same, like, share,
14:10comment your thoughts in the comment
