Preparation is key. Candidates are advised to start early as this would give them ample time to set time aside for the revision of the study material. As the saying goes, no one size fits all. Hence, there is no set method that would guarantee you a successful TOEFL performance. candidates should work on their strengths, improve their weaknesses, and above all be honest in their preparation.

There is no such thing as failing or passing the TOEFL exam. Every university would have its own TOEFL Score cut-off and students are required to achieve scores higher than the set grade. Candidates should note that higher TOEFL scores would automatically increase their chances of securing a seat in the university and also make them a front runner for any scholarships being offered by the university. A low TOEFL score would require the student to re-take the exam to improve his/her performance.

Candidates looking to appear for the TOEFL exam can take the test from a test centre near them. The scores will be automatically announced on the basis of the TOEFL test date. Usually it takes 4-8 days for declaration of TOEFL result. There are no minimum passing marks required for the TOEFL exam as each university or educational institution decides its score range or minimum score required. The higher TOEFL scores would automatically increase their chances of securing a seat in the university.
