this seems easy but I'm struggling to organize my ideas and write with little time. I feel that I'm making it more complicated than it really is :( Thank you so much for the advice. I have my test in four days and I'm consuming all the tutorials I can.

It seems that now we need to pay to practice only for this task 2 (writing question 2). It was better when you guys had around 20 practice samples in the ETS platform for free. The test is already expensive and students usually take it more than once....so sad that money plays a big role

Hey Michael Thank you for the update I have a question about the reading and listening sections Do you know about the number of questions from each type? For example in READING, how many question from the vocabulary, detail, insert reference etc from each passage In LISTENING, a number of questions from the gist, mainly about, inference, etc. form each lecture and conversation. THANKS

Could you please clarify if there is any additional time allocated for reviewing the task and responses in WRITING TASK 2, or if the total time is limited to 10 minutes, including both reading and composing the response? I appreciate your response in advance.

Hmm.. I understand that you mentioned that I may agree or disagree with the other students' discussion. Is it possible to receive a full score without discussing their ideas?

This includes the Writing for an Academic Discussion questions and TOEFL Go! Additional Practice, which can now be found in the Activity of the Day, plus all new free and paid offerings to help you improve. We also have a brand new 40-minute Sample Test to familiarize you with the TOEFL iBT experience. You can learn more here: www.ets.org/toefl/test-takers/ibt/prepare.html
