Taking practice tests is a crucial part of preparing for TOEFL. Mindful Education offers practice tests to help students get a feel for the test format and testing environment, and to improve their scores. We encourage students to practice speaking English as much as possible and immerse themselves in English-speaking cultures. It’s also important to practice note-taking and clear your mind before taking the test. We provide a supportive environment for students to learn and improve their English language skills, and our experienced instructors are dedicated to helping students achieve their goals.
Score Scale
The TOEFL iBT test is scored on a scale of 0 to 120 points. Each of the four sections (Reading, Listening, Speaking, and Writing) receives a scaled score from 0 to 30. The scaled scores from the four sections are added together to determine the total score.

THE TOEFL TEST STRUCTURE
READING:
The reading section consists of 3-5 long passages and questions about the passages. Students answer questions about main ideas, details, inferences, sentence re-statements, sentence insertion, vocabulary, function and overall ideas. New types of questions in the iBT require paraphrasing, filling out the tables, or completing summaries. Generally, prior knowledge of the subject under discussion is not necessary to come to the correct answer, though a prior knowledge may help.
LISTENING:
It consists of six long passages and questions about the passages. The passages consist of two student conversations and four academic lectures or discussions. The questions ask the students to determine the main ideas, details, function, stance, inferences, and overall organization.
SPEAKING:
It consists of six tasks, two independent tasks and four integrated tasks. In the two independent tasks, students must answer opinion questions about some aspects of academic life. In two integrated reading, listening, and speaking tasks, the student must listen to passages and then Summarize and offer opinions on the information in the passages. Test takers are expected to convey information, explain ideas, and defend opinions clearly, coherently, and accurately.
WRITING:
The writing section consists of two tasks, one integrated task and one independent task. In the integrated task, students write an essay on what they read and listen too. In the independent task, students must write an essay.
