Whether a test is hard or easy is very personal. However, rest assured, the TOEFL test has been created to test your understanding of the English language and not to make you miserable. The tests are created keeping in mind the student and a good preparation plan would yield positive results.

A low TOEFL score would require the student to re-take the exam to improve his/her performance.
