TOEFL iBT Scoring and Test Structure

Your TOEFL iBT® (Internet-Based TOEFL) scores will provide accurate information about your ability to participate and succeed in academic studies in an English-speaking environment. Your score report will contain five scores: one total score on a scale of 0 to 120, and four skill scores, each on a scale of 0 to 30.

• Listening (0 to 30)
• Reading (0 to 30)
• Speaking (0 to 30)
• Writing (0 to 30)
• Total Score (1 to 120)

Your scores will be available online 15 business days after you take the test. You will be able to view them for free (as will the schools you chose to receive your scores). You’ll also be mailed a paper copy of your score report 15 business days after your test date.

Due to the gradual phasing in of the TOEFL iBT, if you take the computer-based (CBT) or paper-based TOEFL (PBT), your scores will be valid for two years after the date you take your test. For awhile, anyone who receives a score report will see three sets of TOEFL scores, reported on the three different score scales. Scores for the new test will appear as TOEFL iBT to distinguish them from the CBT and PBT scores.
