What is the new TOEFL iBT?
Since 21 January 2026 the TOEFL iBT is a shorter, adaptive test. Reading and Listening adjust to your level, and the Writing and Speaking tasks are shorter and more practical. Allow about 2 hours on test day.
How is the TOEFL iBT scored?
You receive four section scores and an overall score on a 1–6 scale in half-point steps, aligned with the CEFR. The overall score is the average of the four sections. For a two-year transition period you also see a comparable 0–120 score, so check which scale your university asks for.
Can I take it at a test centre or at home?
Both are offered: at an authorised test centre, or the Home Edition at home with a live proctor. Check the ETS website for current options and requirements.
TOEFL or IELTS?
Many universities accept both. A main difference is Speaking: in TOEFL you speak into a computer and your answers are recorded, while IELTS Speaking is a face-to-face conversation. Check which test your universities ask for, or take our free assessment and we will help you decide.
What score do I need, and where do I register?
Each university or programme sets its own minimum, sometimes per section, so check the requirement first and we will plan your target together. Registration and test dates are on the official ETS website; Athovia prepares you for the test and does not register candidates.
How does Athovia prepare me for TOEFL?
Your preparation is planned around you: your target score, your test date and the sections you want to strengthen, whether that is all four or a single one. Get in touch and our experts will shape the plan with you.
