What is the TOEFL Score?

The TOEFL test score system depends on what type of TOEFL you take. There are two different kinds of TOEFL offered: the papírový test (PBT) and the internetový test (iBT). Ninety-seven percent of all TOEFL test are iBT, so this is the exam you’re most likely to take. PBTs are issued only where there is no internet testing available.

The TOEFL test score is based on the test taker’s performance on the items in the test. You should try and answer one question each in the Reading and Listening categories, compose at least one essay, and perform at least one speaking activity to obtain an official score. For the TOEFL iBT exam, conducted over the Internet, you will earn four scaled portion scores and an overall score:

For the TOEFL PBT test, scoring is different. The PBT test has three sections: reading comprehension, listening comprehension, a structure and written expression. Your raw PBT scores are converted into scaled sectional scores. The scaled score for the reading comprehension section is between 31 and 67. On the other hand, scaled scores for listening comprehension and structure and written expression are reported from 31 to 68, respectively. The raw PBT score is the sum of these sectional scores, multiplied by 10 and divided by 3, to get a TOEFL score range for PBT of 310 to 677.

TOEFL send scores approximately 3 to 6 weeks after you take the TOEFL PBT test via mail. TOEFL test score report for the TOEFL iBT test will be available 10 days after taking the test via online as a PDF file. You will also get a paper copy of your TOEFL rating statement via mail 3 to 6 weeks after the test date.
