Students should keep in mind the following errors to be avoided while using compound words:
· Do not forget to use hyphen, wherever needed. Similarly, don't use hyphens when it's not needed. For example: She is a well-known actor; The book is well known.
· Writing open compound words, as one word. For example: This coffeeshop (instead it should be coffee shop) is opne 24*7.
· Writing closed compound words as open ones. For example: Have you finished your home work? (instead it should be homework)
· &n

When I was applying for studies abroad, I remember being confused by a similar question — IELTS vs TOEFL vs others — because everyone had a different opinion and most advice was very generic.

Hi.
In raw marks (out of ~800):
