hello Punu, Its absolutely normal that you stuck with 2 answers...it happens with everyone,so now just forget about everythin else & treat urself saying you have done good job. Its of no meaning understanding the conversion of raw score to scaled score & no. of Q's correct to pass this exam,b'cos its all depends on each Q's type & difficulty level,no one can understand this well,so buddy just calm down & pray God each day & be positive.Good Luck & God Bless You.:tup:.

Dont worry about that online exam & scoring less...it don't meant that in final exam you'll score less.Do not realy on that exam..passing that exam dont mean that you will pass the actual exam..many of my frends failed to reach score in online exam & still able to clear actual exams...& many could pass the online but failed to reach that score in actual exam.So never let go ur confidenece down.Just keep paracticing the questions as many as possible.And if possible try to write down all difficult Q.& the we can try to solve it in forum...try to get better rationals for each Q.I do have many Q.'s that i'll post online soon,then try to give best answer possible with better rationals.Lets do study in groups...lets discuss topics..which you find more difficult to understand...so that way we can make our foundation strong.Pls.let me know if u wanna ask me any kind of Q.Or let me know about this idea? hello Sam, Good Luck for ur result..dont loose ur hope...u never know may be u pass...so dont think negativley unless u find ur result.Post ur Q's what u find difficult to answer....so we all can have good reasoning skill.Good Luck!! again. Swati-

I'm also struggling to pass this exam...yeah that's right,already tried & yet not cleared...If anybody interested I'm also interested studing together...Please send me reply or e mail id. So I can contact you. Good Luck :tup:!!

Hello,Sudhir Well I've no idea about a good Colleges in US for MOT,& have no knowledge about getting financial aid/scholarship, but as you asked that based on your 4-1/2 yr degree & with some good work experience have any chance to pursue a OT career in US, then as far my knowledge goes,then on based of new requirement,all forign student should have Master degree as a basic requirement (this is wht. i understood). So either u do master there in India or take admission in US for Master,& about colleges & financial aid matter why dont you ask your query in this forum, :idea:http://www.occupationaltherapist.com/forum/categories.cfm?catid=568&entercat=y I guess someone will definately answer your questions,regarding this. Please Excuse me ,If I provided something wrong information,& thats why I said earlier,this info. is based on my knowledge & entirely what I understood it online. I hope it helps you. Good Luck!!:tup:

I wish you very Good Luck!!! Swati-

[ATTACH]2346[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]2347[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]2348[/ATTACH]hello guys, these file r forwarded by Hitesh....& i'm sending it again to you incase if dont have one.... I guess it may help you to pass this test. Wish you Good Luck:tup: . Swati-

Hey Knok, Your post is very touching...& I really understand how you all must be feeling b'cos even I felt the same before passing the TSE.Well, Actually I posted all tips with which I thought I must have cleared,in my thread.But I would still like to help everyone,by anyway. The difference I found in my March TSE than the other test is that, * Spoke very slow. * Took Proper Pause. * Emphasied more on Intonation. Even Work on following things.. * time your self,& practice giving ur respose in that 60 sec. * try speaking spontaneously,& just think of 2-3 points of that answer & then make sentences & speak on it... * try to speak only 2-3 sentences,if your sentences or short then you can add it...but try to cover all your points. * If possible study in group or with partners..it will help you a lot. *And if possible change your center,do not take your test where u have taken before & failed it...b'cos it worked for me twice...so ,I believe like that. Well,this is what i did.I also know that many of us must have studied like this...but,we can only prepare our self by studing hard,rest is all on God!! But one thing I realised is that,this test does not depend on your ability atall,so never underestimate your ability,this is ETS who are very commercial & they just want to make money & tht's why they keep on failing all student. So my dear frends,I wish you all the best & very Good luck for this test & for your future.If you want to ask anything regarding this,pls...dont hesitate to ask.This forum helped me a lot,& only with this forum I passed my test,so I would like to help everyone. My special Thanks to Erin(owner of this forum)b'cos of him ,we all are in touch with eachother. Good Luck once again, Swati-

Hey Very well done!!!Congratulations!!!to Cyber & Switchback....Well from all these post we can see that many of our future was & still IS depends on TSE....we all have different problem & b'cos of the this test we're so worried & we thought that we may never achieve our goal...but thanks to God !!! & to this Forum,& all active member like Knok & Kollurmurthy...who inspired us & gave us good tips about tse...I wish that all student gets 50 by june & achieve their goal... Good Luck YOU ALL!!!!! Swati-

hey You can Recount me...:p Swati-

No,you need to wait for 2-3 days...& then you have to call them & ask for your result...well i doubt,they never tell ur score on phone but they can send u a copy ur result again to ur home address,but i guess you'll get ur score in this week only. Good Luck!! Swati-

Hello Shang-an Thanks a lot!! Well i if u feel that yor answer is very short & feel that u still have time nearly 20 or more second then u need to say more...only 7-10 sec.left after completing ur answer then it is fine...but when u add more sentence atthat u shld. not make any grammatical mistake otherwise dont speak more you may spoil ur answer in nervouseness.And never go with prepared answer,just think & prepare ur point but never try to memorise ur answer.If u feel you dont have much to speak, speak slow with good confidence,paues & proper intonation. Wish u All Good Luck!:tup: Swati-

Hello Guys, Well I cleared my TSE in March,but before i got my result, I already took April test,& I got my result today...& I again got 50...Well for me now its not making any difference but I would like to tell you all that, I guess:hmm: after changing my center I'm passing this test...I took my March exam in San Jose & then I took my April in Las Vegas...& I guess b'cos of that i'm getting positive result...Well this is just my guess,& I wanted to share this idea with you all...Now here in US there is only one chance left that is in June...& now no one can change it anymore....:rolleyes: Anyway once again I would like to CONGRATES those who passed this test in April & also like to Thanks everybody in this forum & I wish you all a VERY GOOD LUCK FOR YOUR NEXT TSE EXAM.

hello,ngumd Even i took my very first exam in that center & that was the worst centre i had ever experienced .when i took my test there were more than 10 students & 5-6 proctors. Even they r not havin head phone..& all telephones were v. old & it was quite disturbing me b'cos of many students...& according to rpt2b,even i felt the same thing...as they r treating u like a illeterate or so... Anywyas,but its all depends on luck...so u just have to be prepared & give good answers & pray...this all u can do... All the Best....& i know you all can make it.... Good Luck Swati-
