If the box is open it’s faster to take a note in the box rather than in paper.

What’s happened if I write more than 30 extra words such as “a, the, be, been, being, have, has, was, were, are, is, am, to, that, in, on, for, of”?
Hi dears,
can we write more words than the correct answer? has it a negative point or don’t?
Based on PTE SCORE GUIDE, each correct word has 1 point and each incorrect word has 0 points So there is no demerit point for you for extra words.
How about an extra word which is not in the dictation? like the?
If we refer to the PTE SCORE GUIDE, each correct word has 1 point and each incorrect word has 0 points So there is no demerit point for you for extra words.
I am searching on net and realized that somewhere:
“the addition of 3 words or below will not be harmful to the final score at all. However, adding words more than 3 will result in points dedication in Listening. This has also been testified both in mock and real exams.”
