About the test
The TOEFL test is the only English-language assessment that incorporates both human and automated scoring to provide a fair and valid measure of an applicant's ability to communicate in English. Moreover, every TOEFL test is scored by a network of reviewers who are continuously monitored to ensure objective and reliable scores.
The TOEFL test is available at more than 4,500 test administration sites in 165 countries. Students can now receive their scores online within two weeks, making the testing process more efficient and user friendly.
