The Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) consists of the following sections:
A minimum score of 80 out of 120 in the exam indicates average English proficiency. The better you score, there are better chances of your application being accepted.
Apart from attending coaching classes to help you prepare for the exam, another way to prepare for the exam is to go for mock exams.
These mock exams will give you an idea of what the actual test will contain and take your preparation a notch higher. Here are some reasons for taking mock exams to improve your score.
Improves your confidence and reduces stress
A practice test for TOEFL would follow the same format as the actual test, with the four parts mentioned above. It's like taking a risk-free official exam! You can reduce your level of stress by being familiar with the format and types of tasks needed, which can help you do better on test day.
Helps you manage time
All in all, the TOEFL takes about 4.5 hours, which is a long time! Taking mock tests will allow you to get a sense of how you are doing in some areas and where your weaker areas are. That way, you can concentrate your time on the parts that matter most and breeze through the simpler parts.
Better than free online resources
Free online resources to study TOEFL do not necessarily match those found in the real TOEFL. So, it makes sense to get the experience of a TOEFL mock test when it comes to matching the TOEFL's length and format, and not rely solely on free online materials for your TOEFL training.
Helps assess your strengths and weaknesses
You might find that you excel at the reading part of the test but struggle with the speaking portion. You would have a good understanding of which portion or sections you need to spend the most time and effort by diagnosing your weaknesses. Ideally, before you sit the actual exam, you should feel comfortable taking on all of the four parts of the TOEFL. Practice with mock tests makes this possible.
