hi friends my final score is 250 TWE 4.5, it is perfect for me and I feel that I owe you much for your help. thank you all out there. now I have a question: I have not received my official score report, but however I do received a list from ETS with the universities I requested to send the scores. Even though, I requested this list after listening my scores by phone. I had the test on 19th December, do you think it is everything OK? :hmm: thanks again

I took the GRE general test and here my scores Quantitative 610 Verbal 320 Analitical writing 3.5 so the question is : since the scores are low , would it be smart to senf them to some universities?, maybe those whose admission requirements are nor so high. or on the contrary that just would decrease my posibilities to be accepted? thanks for the advice

I just have taken the test and the range was 207 to 263, according to the quality my essays I expect between 3 and 4. Could you please tell me what would be the final score if I would get 3, 3.5 or 4? thanks in advance have every one a nive day I would like to tell you about my impresions from the test Listening - I seemed to be faster, so a little bit harder than the samples Structure - I wouldnt say harder or not, but it was a little bit different. (not the same exersices that I expected), I spent a ot of time in an execersice, so I really had to run at the end, please , take care of the time in this part. Reading - The first one was easy, but from there the rest were more complicated and time consuming. but dont worry is enough time

If you could change one important thing about your hometown, what would you change? Use reasons and specific examples to support your answer. If I would be given such an authority to change a thing about my hometown, I would like to change the way Traffic controlling authority works. Today's development and increased (increment) in use of vehicles have created problems like Pollution, traffic, accidents etc. There are several ways by which we could achieve at least what we want that is free flow of vehicles. On very first hand, I would like to make changes in the existing road map of the city. It is possible to make the traffic flow smooth through out city just by jotting down on to the Road MAP for a time. Making suitable changes such as making One way, passing of heavy vehicles, intracity flow of vehicles, intercity traffic, etc. By making this change it will partially solve the problem by controlling the noise pollution and the air pollution in the core of city. This can be exemplified by small example (single noun without a determiner, a the) of our Apartment. Our apartment has 24 buildings; you can imagine how big it is. Children used to play on the road inside the apartment; we used to have at least one accident in a week. After considering, the ways to tackle with problems we changed the way people use to the drive vehicle inside the apartment, changing the direction and making specific areas for children to play had solved the problem we were facing. Secondly, I will make changes in the Signs and symbols and also paths for the cyclists and our government transport. These two things really are sick. Bicyclist will ride bicycle in the middle of the road and every time public transport will come from right to left to the bus stop, which really hinders the traffic of the city. Therefore, if I get a chance I would consider the specific path for cyclist and government transport while mapping the city road.There are many things but one is only too big to talk about. Finally, not least I would like to make proper signaling in the city and put more traffic cops at the accident-prone area. With these, many changes I hope not fully but partially it will solve the problem we are facing today in city due to poor regulations and control of the traffic-by-traffic controlling authority. ------------------------------------------------------------------ It is recommended not to say new things in the final paragraph. So the first sentence shouldnt be there. I now it is not much, but that is what I can do. have a nice day

why not C? is there any rule? thanks

yes the determiner for the noun is missing, so it has to be the nonsmoker or a nonsmoker, or just change to plaural like nonsmokers

Compare buying with money vs trade thing --------------------------------------------- There are two aproches when it deals with obtaining things that we need. We could simply buy them, with physical money or just trade them. It means, changing ones for others based on determined values. To these two ways of getting what we need there are advantages and disadvantages. I will try to compare them and defend the point of view that literally buying, using money is a preferable form. On one hand, we have that having money is more general. That means that we are not not limited to obtaining few things and/or limited to trade only with few people. For example, let's say that we have no money and we want to "buy" things. First of all, we should find someone interested in "adquiring", in fact trading, our products or goods. Thing, that is not necessarly easy to achieve. On the other hand, it is undoubtedly true that in some specific situations, it would be more confortable and maybe the only way, just trade things. Since money lacks of value. I think that this could adjust to certain socio-economical and even geografical carateristics. Let's imagine that in a very wild place, with no money, we would be interested in getting something, perhaps to eat in order to survive. In this example, the existance of money would not be any help. Since any one would want to it. To conclude, however money could be not needed in some "wild places", I would say that is a remarkable advantage of nowadays in our societies and we are not able to refuse it and live without it. ------ please rate it

You have been told that dormitory rooms at your university must be shared by two students. Would you rather have the university assign a student to share a room with you, or would you rather choose your own roommate? Use specific reasons and details to explain your answer. -------------------------------------------------------------------- It is usually the case that dormitory rooms in a university must be shared by two students. And there could be some cases with more than two students. If that would be the case, I would certainly rather choose my roommate or roommates. I will defend my point of view based on some reason like avoiding suffering from unpleasant behaviors, loosing things or refusing help. Undoubtedly, every people have different carateristics and aproaches to everyday life. So, it is very important to know with which person live in the same room, maybe for a long time. By choosing in advance the person to live with, we could avoid suffering from disgusting or just non common things. For example, It would not be nice realize that our roommate used to walk naked, to snoar, to talk when he/she is asleep, eat every time and making terrible noises or to smoke leaving ashes everywhere. Even though, by choosing a roommate does not assure that it will be a happy relation, at least we do will be sure about the most remarkable ones, like smoking, talking all the time and/or keeping our things in their place. It means, we should be sure that the chosen roommate will not be a thieve and he/she will not want to use our things without permission. At last, but not least, if we are right in the selection we could be rewarded. Because of help that we may receive from the roommate. If it is the case that he/she is a nice person and would be willing to help in academic subjects, in which we are not good at like mathemathics, history or english, as well as personal ones. For example, we will benefit ourselves from this kind of help if we were sick and could not attend to classes. To conclude, I would prefer to choose my future roommates in order to have a better time together and avoid negative and harmful relations.

I am very greatful Thank you very much for helping me to improve my essays. I will try to go on and I would like to see you again.

Hi everybody This is my first essay and I am very bad at writting, so I would like that this be checked in this terrific forum. Please help me in this part of the TOEFL (for me the worst one) Any suggestions? Whay would be the rate (if any) :-) Thank you very much in advance Have a nice day !!! -------------------------------------------------------------------------- Some people spend their entire lives in one place. Others move a number of times throughout their lives, looking for a better job, house, community, or even climate. Which do you prefer: staying in one place or moving in search of another place? Use reasons and specific examples to support your opinion. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- When it deals with trying to advance and suceed in life. There two main aproaches to take into account. Moving continuosly looking for better lives, better jobs, houses, community, and/or even climates, or just staying in a determine and chosen place in order to live with stability. I will try to defend the point of view that is much better to spend life in just one or few places, if we want to be quiet and enjoy life. I will base my point on home feelings, bulding a strong basis for life and family health as a consecuence of stability. I always think of home feelings as a basic feelings that make possible to continue in our every day lives. I believe that when people have a home and they feel save in it, it is possible to "charge the batteries" and work, study and socialize in a much better way. Choosing being steady and living in just a place, relatively speaking, would have also influence in our jobs, experience in them and for consecuence there would be more money and the standard of living would get better. If people would choose to be always moving from a place to another. It is like if there were as many beginnings as places. And if we were always beginning it would be very difficult to really succeed in professional or personal life. In this point is important to take into account that a family needs stability, mainly children. It is said that they could be greatly affected from continuos movings. So, we see that a very important part of human life could be degraded for not being steady enough. To conclude, based on stability and things that come from that, I claim that being a normal and quite person is preferable to succeed.
