How to predict your TOEFL score for Writing: A Step-by-Step Guide<\/h2>\n

Step 1<\/strong><\/span>:<\/strong><\/span> Get your TOEFL Writing responses scored<\/strong><\/p>\n

One tricky aspect of predicting your TOEFL score for Writing is getting your practice TOEFL Writing Tasks scored. You can’t just count up the number of right and wrong answers like you would in TOEFL Reading and Listening practice. Instead, you need to get your responses scored with the same rubrics that ETS uses.<\/p>\n

The official\u00a0TOEFL Writing rubrics<\/a>\u00a0are publicly available on the ETS website. To predict your\u00a0TOEFL Writing Score, your could carefully go through these rubrics, using them to estimate the scores on your\u00a0own practice essays.<\/p>\n

Self-scoring is pretty difficult though, and not necessarily reliable. You may not be able\u00a0to judge your own writing with accuracy. So you should probably try to get feedback and unofficial TOEFL Writing scores from others.<\/p>\n
