TOEFL Feedback

Writing was very short, used triggers, examples, and kept length greater than 400

Reading was easiest, and listening was tough for the first 2 passages.

Speaking was the toughest, and was not able to use triggers or the examples.

Speaking based on case was easier, but speaking on indepdent was where i jumbled

May be i take time to start up


Score i will give to myself
28 reading, 26 writing,  24 speaking, 26 listening = 28+26+24+26= 104

TOEFL Reading

Reading has been your low score 24,26 but it can go to 29 if you do it well.

Tips:

1. Very specific options are not the right one
2. Named option focusing on individuals are not the right option
3. too vague options to be eliminated
4. Although and hence yet are the right options
5. have time left for the last big question
6. go slow on the vocab based questions, don't go very fast
7. Very long option is most of times the right answer
8. all and extreme words make the option bad
9. negative connotation lines are not the options

reasons for eliminate the option

TOEFL Listening

Template for Listening:

Practice note-taking. Note-taking is allowed during all sections of TOEFL iBT. Effective note-taking may highly improve your performance. It is almost impossible to memorize all clues and details provided in the Listening section. Moreover, you can hear the passages ONLY ONCE. Therefore, to answer the questions you have to rely on what you remember from the passage and your notes. See also our Effective Note-Taking Strategies.

Listen for the main idea. It is usually found at the beginning of the listening passages, while the details are dispersed throughout the lecture. The main idea will give you understanding of what the conversation/lecture is about. Then you may listen for details.

Learn to find how the ideas are presented in the listening passage. Some of the main relations between ideas include cause/effect, compare/contrast, and steps in a process.

Learn to listen for signal words that indicate different part of the passage - introduction, major steps, examples, conclusions, etc.

Listen to find clues that will help you understand what the speaker's purpose, attitude and degree of certainty is. Listen for words that show relationship between ideas.

Pause after sometime and dont click new

5 Points

1. Take notes while you listen. Only the major points will be tested, so do not try to write down every detail. After testing, notes are collected and shredded before you leave the test center.
2. Pay attention to the speaker’s tone of voice. For instance, whether the speaker sounds excited, sad or confused can help you answer questions that are about the speaker’s attitude or opinion.
3. When listening to a lecture, make note of the way the lecture is organized and the way the ideas in the lecture are connected. Referring back to your notes will help you answer questions about overall organization.
4. If you are unsure of the correct response, try to figure out which choice is most consistent with the main idea of the conversation or lecture.
5. Listening questions must be answered in order. Once you click on OK, you cannot go back to a previous question.

Listen to a sentence's subject, verb, and object and takes notes on that. Don't simply take notes on what you hear. Listen actively for these grammatical powerhouses of meaning. This requires a strong shift for most students. We'll teach you how to make that shift in this chapter.
