Dear all, I took TOEFL iBT on 09/16/2011, and, today i.e.09/22/2011, I got my score.I checked the website. It says that my score should come on 10/01/2011,but,instead, I received my score within 4 working days!! I am really surprised!My score is way below my expectations. Did anyone face such a problem? Is it O.K. to have my score so early? or are ETS people now providing score haphazardly? It's merely impossible to score appropriately in such a short time frame. What should I do? I really appreciate your thoughtful suggestions. Thank you.

Hi all, For my above problem, my tutor and I talked to ETS for detailed breakdown of my recent score. ETS agreed to us saying that it needs a written request from a student. I sent a letter, I faxed it, and, I sent an email with a scanned copy of this letter also. I talked to ETS guy after 3 days. The customer representative told me that ETS has not received anything, and,ETS can't give detailed score breakdown. ETS is playing around me. Every time, I get different answers from different representatives for the same question.One says ETS needs a letter, another says ETS can't help even with a written,signed request letter.It seems like ETS representatives have no fix standards. Everyone answers in his/her own way. Nobody bothers to put remarks in students' accounts. They say TOEFL iBT is a highly secured exam with minimum chances of errors,then how come many students have cleared TOEFL by fraudulence? Why ETS doesn't take any action against those students and those test centers? They closed many centers recently,but,didn't take any action against these students!! Now,these students are happily enjoying their career after clearing this exam with fraud!!I don't know, what should I do? Please help me.. Thank you all for your advice and support.

Hi Knok, I am not sure whether I had a talk with you or not. I speak very fast in English than in my native language especially when I am answering my TOEFL questions. My tutors and my classmates told me that I am very fast, and, hence, need to slow down a bit. This time, I managed to control my speed and still was able to deliver all the context on time. Actually, I finished ahead of time (about 5-8 seconds) in all questions.

Hi Tino, Thank you for your advice. I have been preparing for TOEFL for almost 3 years, and, you are right, I need 26/24 in speaking and writing section respectively. I am fluent in English. I took TOEFL classes in NJ in one of the state universities. Additionally, I took one-one lesson with an ESL teacher for about 20-25 hours. I followed the format given in Official Guide to TOEFL preparation by ETS. This time , I really did fantastic! I simply don't understand what's going on? My scores were high before taking coaching and after having coaching, I really improved my skills. I was much more confident than before so there was no chance of getting such a low score (even more lower than my past exam with almost no preparation) this time!!

Dear all, I had my TOEFL on June 25th,2011. I got my "HORRIBLE" score yesterday. I did extremely well in my test. I took TOEFL classes and one-one speaking lessons also. My tutors and I were very confident for my test and test results, but, unfortunately I got 89. ( 22 in all except listening:23). How can I dispute with ETS for my score? Should I go to ETS office in Princeton, NJ and talk with them in-person? I am going mad. I was well prepared, I did a lot of practice tests, and , I was happy for my performance in a test. I don't understand what's going on with TOEFL and me? Are they doing this intentionally? Please give me your thoughts and suggestions asap. Thank you.

Hi, I just called NABP. The customer representative told me that my file will remain open as long as they keep receiving TOEFL iBT score. So need to worry!

Hi Eager, I tried to join free classes but I have problem with either login or password. Are you available as a speaking partner? Where are you now? what's your goal in Toefl?

Hi All, I live in NY, near to NYC. I am struggling to get 26 in speaking so,I searched few Toefl iBT tutoring classes in NYC. They are: (1) Kaplan (2) NY language center,NYC (3) Test success NYC (4) IH Newyork (learn English in New York) All of them offer 1-1 classes but classes are very very costly. Can any one tell me how these classes are? Is it worthy to join? Intensive Toefl classes are of 4-5 weeks but are way too much costly. I appreciate your opinion. Thank you in advance.
