The difficulty of TOEFL with PTE can vary based on individual strengths and preferences. Some students find the TOEFL more challenging due to its academic focus and the need for detailed written responses. Others may find the PTE easier because it uses computer-based testing and artificial intelligence for scoring, which can provide quicker feedback. Ultimately, the choice between the two tests should depend on which format aligns better with your skills and comfort level.

An IELTS score of 7.5 typically translates to a TOEFL score ranging from 102 to 109. This means that if you achieve a 7.5 on the IELTS, you would likely need a TOEFL score within this range to demonstrate similar English proficiency.

To change a PTE score to a TOEFL score, you can use conversion tables. For example, a PTE score 79 is about the same as TOEFL score 113. In general, higher PTE scores match higher TOEFL scores. But you should always check the official table to get the correct conversion.

Since it is within the normal range of English proficiency requirements for many undergraduate and Diploma programs, a TOEFL score of 85 is generally regarded as suitable for the majority of programs at the Queens Academic Group of New Zealand. A TOEFL score between 60 and 90 is frequently enough for admission to many New Zealand colleges, while the precise requirements can change based on the course and academic level. Although you should be able to enrol in a variety of courses with a score of 85, it's wise to confirm the English language requirements of the particular program.

Given that NUS is one of the best institutions in the world, admittance to the school is quite hard. Several things affect your chances of getting in, such as your test results, extracurricular activities, academic standing, and how well your profile fits the requirements of the program.
