Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) is a standardized test to measure the English language ability of non-native speakers wishing to enrol in English-speaking universities. The test is accepted by many English-speaking academic and professional institutions. TOEFL is one of the two major English-language tests in the world, the other being the IELTS. TOEFL is a trademark of the Educational Testing Service (ETS), a private non-profit organization, which designs and administers the tests.

An intermediary to advanced level language examination, which shows your proficiency in English, it is the standard examination for admission to many Universities for those whose first language is not English. It has essentially two versions: TOEFL iBT (Internet-based test) and TOEFL PBT (paper-based test). Both the versions of TOEFL have four sections- Reading, Speaking, Listening and Writing. The test takes about 4 hours to complete. Candidates can retake the TOEFL test as many times as they wish. The TOEFL score requirements are set by individual educational institutions. The total TOEFL test score is between 0–120. TOEFL results are valid for two years after the test and there is no limit to the number of times you can take the test. TOEFL test scores are posted online within 2 weeks of the test date.
