Basically the TOEFL test is done to assess the following:
1.Students will have excellent writing and English skills to be able to write scientific papers.
2. Students will have the opportunity to read English properly and correctly so that later they can understand the subject matter they need.
3. Students have the opportunity to listen to the English instructor’s explanation accurately and accurately.
The strategy for doing the TOEFL listening test questions is the same for all TOEFL PBT tests. So you don’t have to spend a lot of time and effort reading during the exam.
1. Make sure you understand the instructions before starting the test.
2. Pay close attention to what you are about to hear. This was because the audition tape was only played once.
3. Please understand that the difficulty of the questions starts from the easiest to the most difficult. So, from 150 questions, 110 questions are the easiest and 4,150 questions are the most difficult.
4. There is a 12 second delay from one question to the next. So I have to answer the question in 12 seconds and read the answer options for the next question.
5. Answer all questions, even if you are unsure or don’t know the answer. Wrong answers will not reduce your TOEFL PBT test score.
