Whether you’re planning to study for a long time, or you’ve waited until the last minute, it helps to add some structure to your TOEFL study plan to keep you organized and on track. Planning out a study schedule is the key first step in scoring well on the TOEFL. Here are some tips to help you build a study schedule that works for you!
To help take the guesswork out of all of this, we’ve created a couple of schedules to help you get started.

Building Your Own TOEFL Study Schedule
If you want to build your own, customized study schedule, start by asking yourself these questions:
- Am I ready to start studying for the TOEFL?
- What score do I need on the TOEFL? How much do I need to improve from where I am today?
- How long am I going to study? How much time can I study each day or week?
- Do I want to make a daily schedule that outlines what I need to do each day? Or do I want to make a weekly schedule, that has more room for adjustments?
- What skills do I need the most help with?
- What skills do I need the least help with?
Once you’ve answered all of these questions, it’s time to choose the right study materials for you. These book reviews should help, and be sure to check out Magoosh’s TOEFL lessons!
After you have your materials, it’s time to plan out your study schedule. I’d suggest using our one month plan (mentioned above), as a guide, and take it from there.
Happy studying! 🙂
