TOEFL Exam Details
Types of ETS TOEFL Exam:
The ETS TOEFL conducts theEnglish proficiency exam in two modes. i.e.) Internet based exam (TOEFL iBT) and paper delivered exam (TOEFL PBT).
ETS TOEFL – iBT Test
The TOEFL-iBT test is the most preferred type, with over 90% of students attempting the test in this internet based format. The TOEFL-iBT test comprises 4 sections, which are: speaking, listening, writing and reading. Students are asked to take up all the sections on a computer equipped with a microphone and camera. Since the iBT test pattern doesn’t have a separate section to examine candidates’ grammar knowledge, the writing section is monitored in detail.
ETS TOEFL – PBT (* PBT is not available in Nepal)
The TOEFL PBT is a paper-based English language test. Students who are not in proximity to internet-based test centres can take up this test. The TOEFL PBT test format is quite different from that of iBT as it also contains a separate essay section. The listening section in the PBT has recordings that are shorter than the IBT’s.
