Foreword
Congratulations!
You’ve made the right decision to take the
TOEFL
®
test—the test that
gives you the unmatched advantage over other English-language tests.
There’s no question that the TOEFL test is the most widely accepted English-language test
in the world—that’s why we say the TOEFL test can help you “go anywhere.” More than
8,500 colleges, universities and agencies in 130 countries accept TOEFL scores, including
the U.S. and Canada as well as the U.K. and Australia. This gives you the lexibility of
sending your test scores to any of these destinations. It’s no wonder more than 27 million
people have taken the TOEFL test since it was introduced in 1964.
The TOEFL test is also the most highly respected English-language test in the world.
In fact, it’s the only test that simulates university classroom and campus life and was
developed with the help of leading universities. By doing well on the TOEFL iBT
®
test,
you will prove you have the reading, listening, speaking and writing skills that universities
are looking for—and show that you can effectively combine these skills to communicate
your ideas in and out of the classroom. Preparing for the test will help you build the
English skills you need to succeed in an academic setting and beyond.
TOEFL Test Prep Planner
That’s the purpose of this
TOEFL Test Prep Planner
—to help you understand how to
prepare for the test effectively and to help you build the English skills you need to succeed.
Chapter 1 provides you with a test preparation plan to use in the eight weeks leading up
to your test date. Chapter 2 gives you general information about the test and scoring.
Chapters 3 through 6 provide more information about the four sections of the test as well
as activities you can do to build your skills. Chapter 7 tells you what to do on and after
test day.
