What Makes The TOEFL Awesome?!?!

Besides not having a dedicated Grammar section — what makes The TOEFL iBT Exam one of the most unique & innovative exams available is that it essentially tests — not only one’s ability to function in a University-type setting, but…

…One’s Ability To Actually Learn!

Taking this into consideration — this is a test that EVERYONE has the ability to “pass”. As long as he or she is able to follow directions Explicitly, and perform each task Efficiently & Effectively.
.

However — it should be noted that The TOEFL iBT Exam is not actually based on a “pass/fail” system. It is graded on a “point” system. So the “passing” score is whatever is required by the University or Institution that one is applying to, and thus — is determined by each individual learning institution.
.

The average score required by most Universities is 80-85 points. For more technical and specialized programs — (Medical, Legal, Engineering, Scientific) — the score is typically 90-95 (or higher). But each test-taker needs to verify this with the learning institution that he or she will be applying to, BEFORE Taking The Exam!!!

Finally – The TOEFL iBT Exam tests AUTHENTIC English. Therefore — it is possible to make a mistake and still receive a “perfect” score for a particular Question or Task.
.

This is because everyone (including those who are native English speakers) makes mistakes as a natural part of speaking. This includes: “False Stops”; Slight Mis-Pronunciations; and Changing One’s Mind Mid-Sentence. Because of this, it is possible to make a few mistakes on parts of this exam and STILL get a perfect score!!!
