What Does This Mean for Your TOEFL Study Schedule?

Like a lot of test-takers approaching their test dates, you may have been wondering if it’s even worth preparing for the TOEFL this close to the test. It absolutely is! You may not become bilingual in English overnight, but you can certainly improve your language skills in that time. What’s more, learning about the format of the test and practicing with different question types will give you a huge advantage.
 
Remember, the TOEFL is a standardized test—this means that there are standard features that the test-makers use in each and every version of the exam to make it fair to all students. This also means that, with practice, you can learn about and master how to use these features to your benefit.

Adapting the 1 Month TOEFL Study Schedule Beyond a Month

If you have more than a month to prepare for the TOEFL, that’s awesome! The same principles and guidelines in the video still apply to you, but you have a little more flexibility in terms of how you prepare, and time to use a wider variety of study tools. Lucas talks about stretching out the one-month plan in the video. You can also check out our 60-day TOEFL New Study Guide for more details.

A Final Word on TOEFL Prep

By watching this video, you’ve taken an important first step in getting the TOEFL score you want—and getting into the college or university of your dreams. Remember: just keep focused, keep practicing, and keep looking towards those goals. Good luck!
