How to Register for the TOEFL Test!

    

     On my weekends here in Atlanta, I am a TOEFL Test Administrator at my institution. For those who don't know or are curious to know, the TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) is pretty much mandatory entrance exam for all non-native speakers to be accepted into a North American College or University.  It doesn't matter how good the speaker speaks English. If the speaker is non-native, they must take the TOEFL. So as an administrator, I am asked constantly by students how to register or sign-up for the TOEFL Test.  It's very easy to register and costs anywhere between $160-250 depending on where and when the student takes it. It is also important to note that there is no prerequisite for the TOEFL. Anyone can sign-up and there is no need to take classes or courses to register and take the test. Below you will find a video that will demonstrate step-by-step how to register ONLINE for the TOEFL. 

Best as always,

     The Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) measures the ability of non-native speakers of English to use and understand North American English as it is spoken, written and heard in college and university settings.

     You have 20 minutes to do 20 questions. When you have completed the test you will get a score and you can review your answer to each question.

     Most people who take the TOEFL test are planning to study at colleges and universities where instruction is in English. In addition, many government agencies, scholarship programs, and licensing/certification agencies use TOEFL scores to evaluate English proficiency.
The TOEFL® Internet-based test has four sections. It is approximately four hours long. All four sections can be taken on one day. Note-taking is allowed throughout the test to help test takers answer the questions.
