What Versions of the TOEFL Are Available in Madrid?

Currently, in Madrid you can register for three versions of TOEFL:

  • TOEFL iBT: this is the most recognized version worldwide. It is currently accepted in more than 11,500 institutions, including universities, companies, and consulates. In fact, when you hear about TOEFL preparation, it’s probably the TOEFL iBT. This is an online test that takes a little over 3 hours and is taken at authorized centers. The test is scored from 0 to 120 points, which are accumulated by answering the four sections of the test: Reading, Listening, Writing, and Speaking.
  • TOEFL iBT Home Edition: This version is the same as the TOEFL iBT, with the difference that it can be taken from home. To do this, you will need to download the ETS browser to your computer and register to take the test at one of the available appointments. For the TOEFL iBT Home Edition you can get appointments even 24 hours in advance.
  • TOEFL Essentials: this is one of the latest versions developed by the ETS organization. TOEFL Essentials is a simplified test that lasts 90 minutes. It is intended for people who want certification for both academic and non-academic reasons. This version of TOEFL is increasingly gaining worldwide recognition, especially in the United States. However, it does not yet have the same level of acceptance as the TOEFL iBT. On the ETS website, you can see a list of institutions that accept this test.

I Want to Take a Course, Where Can I Prepare?

Madrid has a wide variety of centers and academies that offer TOEFL preparation courses. However, not all of them will be able to help you prepare for the TOEFL according to your goals and the time you have available.

The TOEFL is a type of certification that requires you to learn specific test-taking strategies. It is very common to underperform if you do not receive preparation designed ONLY to improve your performance on the test. Undoubtedly, your level of English has an influence, but a good part of your score comes with the skill of learning how to solve the 4 sections of the TOEFL according to its evaluation criteria. 

As a candidate, we recommend that you look for a preparation that focuses exclusively on maximizing your TOEFL level in the shortest possible time. Here are some of the differences between companies specialized in TOEFL preparation and English academies with TOEFL courses:
