Frequently Asked Questions

What’s the difference between TOEFL iBT and TOEFL PBT?
TOEFL iBT (Internet-Based Test) is the current standard, taken on computer with integrated tasks combining skills. TOEFL PBT (Paper-Based Test) was the old format, retired in 2021. We exclusively prepare for TOEFL iBT, the only version currently offered. iBT is more rigorous and tests practical English usage.
Is TOEFL or IELTS better for US universities?
TOEFL is more widely used for US university admissions and is the de facto standard. However, most US universities now accept both TOEFL and IELTS. TOEFL is preferred by older institutions and US-based programs. Choose based on where you’re strongest; both are equally valid.
What is TOEFL MyBest Score?
MyBest Score combines your highest section scores from all of your TOEFL exams taken in the past 2 years. For example, if your first test has a 95 and your second has a 98, MyBest could be 100+ using best sections from each. Universities can see your MyBest score, though policies vary on which scores they prefer.
How do I convert TOEFL score to IELTS band?
Approximate conversion: TOEFL 80 ≈ IELTS 6.0; TOEFL 90 ≈ IELTS 6.5; TOEFL 100 ≈ IELTS 7.0; TOEFL 110 ≈ IELTS 7.5; TOEFL 120 ≈ IELTS 8.5+. However, conversion is not official. We recommend checking your target university’s specific score requirements for both tests.
How much time do I need to prepare for TOEFL?
Preparation time depends on your starting level and target score. Average timeline: 12 weeks (20 hours tutoring) for 15-20 point improvement. Native-level English speakers: 4-6 weeks. Intermediate level: 8-12 weeks. Beginner level: 16-20 weeks. Our diagnostic assessment helps determine your realistic timeframe.
