WoW !
Seriously?
Your English must be darn good.
I thought the max score is 120?

erm , im currently doing a-lvl right now in taylor's college , afer getting my cert , how do i apply to go the uni in us that i want to go to? Sorry to intterupt this thread , im a complete newbie

Yeah, the max score is 120. So..it's considered good? Wasn't sure of the standard. And no, my English is not darn good. It's far from that

If you plan to study in US, why are you taking A-levels?
I don;t think you will get much transfer credit.

106 is considered very good already. lulz
I'm just aiming for 80.
By the way how was the test? I'm taking it on the 24th.

which part of US?

so far cheapest is united.. but 60 hours + 5 stops..

Well my test center was pretty relaxing. There were only 4 of us (I believe 5 is the max, considering there's only 6 PCs there, 1 is for the staff) and the staffs/invigilators wasn't strict at all. They even left us alone quite often Whereas for my friend who took it at KL/Selangor (can't remember specifically which center), there was many candidates and they were in cubicles (we didn't have cubicles, just separated tables) with CCTV monitoring every single person

Well, I'd have to say the reading and listening section is harder than the sample sets that I've done (1 from TOEFL's site itself and another 1 from Kaplan). Whereas for speaking and writing section I can't give a comparison as I didn't really bother much about it during practice (well, couldn't figure out how to prepare ). Also, it seems random that some candidates will be given an extra question for the reading section, whereas others would not have it, thus proceeding faster that those that get it.

I happened to be one of the unfortunate one that got it (2 of us got it, the other 2 didn't) and was confused as to why I was sooo slow behind the other candidates Kinda got me distracted there a while. Not to mention as some candidates may enter the speaking section earlier, you may be distracted by them too. Though, if you're able to handle your current questions AND listen to what they're talking about, then try to do so. You'll get the idea of what to focus on later during your speaking section as the questions are the same My speaking section screwed up Only got 20/30.

Uh, and if you cannot tahan much cold, better bring a sweater/jacket along just in case. Depends on the test center.

4 in a class? Good for you.
I'm taking it in KL.
By the way I'm sure you guys will not have the same questions right?

How many questions for the listening and reading section?
I always think that speaking is the hardest section though.

May i know which university are you going to study and what is your major?

Well in KL definitely will be on a much larger scale. Won't have the same questions with us, but with the candidates there with you on that day, yeah.

Erm, sorry can't remember Can read it at the TOEFL sample set, it'll tell you that. And yeah, I do agree that speaking is the hardest. Was worried about writing too since I haven't write any essay for a couple of months.

I haven't made a final decision on which uni yet. But I'm going to apply for Drake, Nebraska-Lincoln and Iowa. Still trying to find more choices. My major is actuarial science, not sure if I'm gonna stick to it though

There nothing much that one can do for pre-u if one wants to go to the US.

One might get up to one year's worth of credits.

Hmm I got 105 when I took it when I was 13, and I think it's low. >.<
I'm aiming for more than 110, when I have to apply for uni.
Pretty good scores in listening, writing and speaking but low in reading because I just don't have the patience to read through the whole passage.

Why'd you take it when you were 13?

When you was 13?
I think you're a genius applying for university @ that age?
So you are 17 now?
Which university you got into?

Nah I just took it because my brother was taking it, and I wanted to know the standard of it so that I can prepare myself better for it later.
And my dad doesn't mind wasting money. o_O

How'd your brother do that time?
