Thanks so much for your help, but the funny thing is, when I just logged on and about to read your reply, the mail arrived seconds later.. lol And yeah now I asked to the college, the said I'd have to sent all my application to UAPC, by the way, do you know how money order works? I have no idea about it..

Oh, but it has been more than a month, sinec I got the score, but I never got the paper score sinec then, I checked on the ETS site about my address, and there's no error, I don't know what could be wrong with it. If in that case, how can I ask to the ETS's people for that??

When I signed up for the test, I already filled the 4 recipients that they offered for free. and now I got the score.. not the paper one yet, but I dont know how long that'd take, its has been more than 2 weeks. almost 2 months since I took the test, already a month since I got the score online, and I also asked to the college that I put on the recipient list.. Still got to wait to the answer because its easters you know. And all they do is ask me for the appication fee... and then they'd let me know, but the question is, how am I suppose to know if they already got my TOEFL score, I mean, I don't wanna pay 17 bucks more just because the system didn't work out as it supposed to..

Ah, everyone get over 100 but me :(

Hello, I took the exam at the february 1st, and got my score at 22nd i guess, but i remembre they said they'd be sending the score on paper by post service, but still no sign, also about the recipient, remember when you apply for the test, it offers you four recipient free that you can send them your score, but i don't know how it works either, does anybody what should I do? I mean I'm already going to apply for the college, now i have my high school diplom, but don't know what to do with the recipient, the college that I'm applying to is in the recipient list, but I don't know what to do next. Please help!!

I got mine! not very good actually but my college ask for 45, so what do you guys think? do I have chance?? Reading 19 (I screwed it up because the timing and subjects..) Listening 23 (also timing problem..) Speaking 17 (no comment.. i was so nervous..) Writing 18 (I had problem with time too.. missed out a point.) So what do you guys think, if i can give a shot with this score, i mean trying to apply to the college which requires 45, will I get accepted??

Well you know what happened to me.. In one of the passages, I tried to look at the question first then find the answer in the text, because I had no much time left... and I don't think i did that well because some of those questions were about details and reference.. so you'd have to read the text, and know what exactly is it about... overall, the concentration is the key.. that was what happened to me I couldnt concentrate myself and i think i did very poor.. However, you can read, quicky, to have a basic idea about the passage, then answer the questions, remember the timing is very important.. some of those questions took me like 2 minutes because I had to read again to find the answer and lack of concentration totally knocked me down..

Lol, no worries, I thought so. That's just awesome! 116?!! You said you were not prepared? Wow, I took a month preparing and I'm not sure if I'll even get half of your score :( How'd you do it? Can you share more about what happened when you were taking the test?

Hey, first congratulations!! First attemp and 111?! That's just amazing, you know although I've written down this whole tips, I didn't do well at all, your tips is helpful, i couldn't express myself very well.. also I was very nervous specially the clock counting down made me more :( to neeshu: thanks, hope you guys can pass it

Well I can share you my experience, I took a month preparing for the test, and seems my method did help but not much when I was dealing with the real one, you should get the materials that teach you, and always, get yourself used to the time limit, which took me down, because during my preparation I've been always messing around and took all my time with no time limit, and when the real test came up on me, I couldnt even finish the reading section about time, the last question i missed one point.. :( anyway.. is always about concentration.. when you go to the test center, probably yours is gonna be different, but mine wasnt really private, people around taking the test, and sometimes you can get distracted if you hear they speaking for the answer, but perhaps you could take examples from them.. lol but i don't think you should do.. However you should focus and improve your weakest spot, like i was pretty bad at speaking but i didnt do much about it so i did very bad at speaking section.. just good luck.

126 out of 130?? I thought iBT only reaches 120 :S What kind of test did you do?

I'm pretty much losing my mind to right now.. plus first at all, I'll have to get up early tomorrow, then take a long trip to the centertown, also I have the same kind of problem that you have.. But I will try to calm myself down.. mostly like free my mind and just let's do it! :P

8th attempt? wow you're scaring me right now.. Because I'm gonna take the test tomorrow morning and speaking is one of my weakest section.. :(

Hello folks I'm going to take the test on February 1st too!! Yeah it says within 2 weeks. So you'd get your score by then, but you can already send your application before that, then once you get your score, you have the free recipient that you set when you registered for TOEFL, so they'd send the score to the college you are applying to, so if your application request letter arrive first, before your score, then you can make the point out on the letter telling them your score will be arriving soon. I hope that will work. Good luck folks, although I still need to improve my speaking!! Oh no!!

So I always have this huge doubt in my head, the college that I'm going to apply, requires 45 in iBT, I know that's not much and is easy to get. But, I know I am not gonna just get a score like that or even a little higher like 50, 60 or 70, so I was thinking, what score, would make it sure, more acceptable my application. Such as 100 or is 90 and 80 enough to be accepted? I am worried because it's my first time and I know I'm not gonna get a very high score, so I want to make sure to be accepted if i get a 80 or 90.. Thanks!! Oh by the way the college is Borough community college in Manhattan... so you can have a reference..
