The main tip for the reading section (all parts): don't even try to read everything! Learn how to scan passages and how to extract information with paraphrasing. If one tries to read everything they are doomed to failure.
Agreed. Your first pass through the passage should be a quick scan to get an idea of what each paragraph and the passage as a whole are about at a very general and high level. Your goal is to be able to identify as quickly as possible where in the passage to look for the information you're being asked in the questions and then read the relevant section closely only when you're looking for the answer to a question. The earlier questions and passages are indeed easier, and you need to work swiftly while not being careless. You will need to take your time on those later questions (28-40).
Thanks..I can tell you one thing, by the time you are discussing TEF difficulty and not believing yourself others already started to learn it. You just lost your precious day!
I tell everyone here, go for it, you can do it it may take sometime to learn but you're doing it for your future and dream! There is a thread where you can ask some advice. Hope gave you a good advice for the 1st step.
PS: Remember this, you can claim 20 or 24 points as a 2nd language ability and 30 bonus points for CLB7 in all 4 sections of TEF (I'm telling this coz I know you all here rocked the IELTS, for bonus part you need just CLB6 In IELTS)
Why is everyone's birthday leading to a decrease in 5 points/
Yes. With birthday passing (ageing), you will loose 5 points on the CRS table. You can check the CRS criteria, that's how it is , the younger - the better for them for economic immigration.
Don't Worry mate,
In case of ravleen - You are not going to loose 5 points. Cheers, from 20 Untill 29 the points are same - Full 100 (With partner/Spouse) or 110 (Without partner/Spouse). See table.
That's very sad indeed, but by God's grace she will be healed. That is our prayer.
