The Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) is a standardized test designed to measure the English language ability of non-native speakers who wish to enroll in English-speaking universities. The test is accepted by more than 11,000 universities and other institutions in over 190 countries and territories. TOEFL is one of several major English-language tests worldwide, including IELTS, Duolingo English Test, Cambridge Assessment English, and Trinity College London exams.

The TOEFL iBT (Internet-based test) measures a test takers ability to combine listening, reading, speaking, and writing skills in an academic setting. The test is divided into four sections: Reading, Listening, Speaking, and Writing. The Reading and Listening sections consist of multiple-choice questions, while the Speaking and Writing sections require test takers to respond to prompts. The test is scored on a scale of 0 to 120, with a minimum passing score of 60.

TOEFL is a trademark of the Educational Testing Service (ETS), a private non-profit organization that designs and administers the tests. ETS issues official score reports, which are sent independently to institutions and are valid for two years following the test. The TOEFL iBT test is offered in a test center, at home, or on paper, depending on the location and preference of the test taker.

The TOEFL iBT test is widely recognized and preferred by universities worldwide, and it measures all four academic English skills — reading, listening, speaking, and writing — the way they are actually used in a classroom. The test gives students an advantage by measuring academic English skills that are relevant to university-level studies.
