Where to Take Your TOEFL iBT Test

Where to Take Your TOEFL iBT Test

Mar 6, 2023

The TOEFL iBT (Test of English as a Foreign Language internet-based test) is a standardized test that measures the English language proficiency of non-native speakers. It is widely accepted by universities, colleges, and other institutions around the world as proof of English language proficiency. If you're planning to take the TOEFL iBT test, one of the first things you'll need to do is decide where to take the test. In this blog post, we'll explore some of the options you have for taking the TOEFL iBT test.

1. Test Centers

One of the most common options for taking the TOEFL iBT test is at a test center. There are over 4,500 test centers in more than 165 countries around the world, so there is likely a test center near you. When you register for the test, you'll be able to search for test centers near your location. Test centers are typically located in universities, colleges, and other institutions that offer testing services.

2. Home Edition

If you prefer not to go to a test center or have difficulty traveling, you may opt for the TOEFL iBT Home Edition. This is a new option that allows you to take the test from the comfort of your own home. You'll need a computer with a camera, microphone, and internet connection to take the test. The home edition is available in most countries, but you'll need to check the availability in your area.

3. Paper-Based Test

While the TOEFL iBT is the most popular version of the test, there is also a paper-based version. This version is typically offered in areas where internet connectivity may be limited or unavailable. If you prefer the paper-based version, you'll need to check the availability in your area.

4. Special Accommodations

If you have a disability or other special needs, you may qualify for special accommodations when taking the TOEFL iBT test. These accommodations may include extended testing time, additional breaks, or other support. You'll need to submit documentation of your disability or special needs when you register for the test.

In conclusion, there are several options for taking the TOEFL iBT test, including test centers, home edition, paper-based tests, and special accommodations. You'll need to decide which option is best for you based on your location, preferences, and needs. Once you've decided where to take the test, you can register online and start preparing for the test to achieve your desired score.
