Well I downloaded the bulletin and other necessary stuff. I found on the ets website that country Qatar is not listed in computer based tests and that the upcoming date for paper based test is 28th of August which is too late for me. I have to give test in this month i.e June or in early July. I am getting in very upset situation. I want to confirm my findings about the dates and pattern(CBT or PBT). Question is how come I will be sure that CBT isnt possible in Qatar on the internet and that I can take test before 28th of August. I think I do make sense :). Perhaps Erin may show up and answer the question.

My situation resembles with that of lleona. I am taking the toelf test at the end of June but I have not yet decided which university I am going to apply. So the question is how I will tell ets to send the score sheet to the university I am interested in and also should I have to pay extra for that? Any help would be highly appreciated. O yes congratulations lleona for your wonderful scores and best luck for future.

Thanks Erin I downloaded the pool of essay topics.You are an eager beaver.:)

Erin, how can I download real TOEFL essay topics issued by ets. The link you provided on your site is not working for me. Thanks in advance.

I am trying to register online for the TOEFL test but it seems to me that its not working. TOEFL Ets site shows that you can register online but it doesnt take me to fill the form .How can I register for toefl? Do I have to download bulletin or can I register through telephone? I am residing in Qatar.

Hi all! I just want to share this very cool software explaining different grammatical terms with just a sinlge click. Download URL is ftp://sunsite.cnlab-switch.ch/mirror/winsite/win95/education/glossary.zip Hope it will be hellpful.

Well Kennyp is right but they should be explained accordingly. In question 10 "each" seems to be the subject,however, it is not. Subject is "Cheryl and her room mate" so the correct verb should be "show" and not "shows".

Hi all! I would appreciate if anyone tries to explain the following questions. 1- The team of scientists (monitors/monitor) the Milky Way. 2- The team of scientists (disagree/disagrees) about those stars. 3- This group of stars( is/are) known as the Andromeda Galaxy. 4- That group of stars (have,has) separated to form new galaxies. 5- The group (agrees, agree) to take action. 6- The jury (has, have) gone separate ways. 7- "Neither Hans nor his sisters (was/were) playing that day." 8- By taking emphasis off the play instincts of the human race, new vigor and effectiveness is lost because recreation for the body and for the mind is almost nonexistent. ( Correct this statement). 9- The majority of students is/are accustomed to living in comfort. 10- Cheryl and her roommate each show/shows up with a microwave, a television, a refrigerator and a cordless telephone.

I'll go like this... 1(8) -A 2(15)-D 3(19)-B 4(23)-D Well in the last question the correct answer to me is D since the man is asking from woman what really she likes in the restuarant and mentions his opinion about the atmosphere which he thinks is wonderful.As for the option C then it cant be the right choice because where does in the conversation he say that he doesnt like the food rather he says"good food" that means the food in his opinion is good.
