WHAT’S TOEFL?
The TOEFL is an internationally recognized Test Of English
as a Foreign Language. It is a long test that usually requires several months
of study and preparation. And, if you are reading this post, I imagine that you
probably need to take TOEFL.
Educational institutions and governmental agencies in over
130 countries accept TOEFL scores when considering applications for certain
positions or courses. As an admission requirement, you may find that some
courses require a minimum TOEFL score which will allow you to proceed onto the
course alongside the regular course requirements. Minimum score requirements
can range between 61 and 100 depending on the institution and course.
The TOEFL consists of four sections: Reading, Listening,
Speaking and Writing. The 4 Major Sections of the TOEFL
The Reading section (60-100 minutes long) assesses your
ability to understand and analyze written texts on topics like science and
academic discussions.
The Listening section (60-90 minutes long) makes sure you
can understand information given to you orally—for example, when you listen to
a lecture or speak to a professor at university. This section has four to six
lectures and questions that test your understanding of the content, as well as
your understanding of the motivations and emotions of speakers.
The Speaking section (20 minutes) consists of six tasks that
you complete by talking into a microphone during the test. It is meant to
measure how well you can express your thoughts and ideas in English.
And finally, the Writing section (50 minutes) is all about
demonstrating how you can use your English in writing. Here, you will apply
your knowledge of grammar and vocabulary and form clear sentences and
paragraphs.
Each section has a maximum score of 30, so the maximum TOEFL
score overall is 120. This means that 120 is a perfect score.
if it is part of the requirements for your admission then it
is important to research in more depth and be prepared for the different
elements of the test. Here are the different elements of each test:
