What is the TOEFL?
 

The Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) evaluates the English proficiency of people whose native language is not English.  Most U.S. universities require that international applicants take the TOEFL.  Generally a score of 61 to 100 on the Internet-based TOEFL (iBT) or 500 to 600 on the paper-based version is required for admission to undergraduate and graduate programs in the United States, with graduate schools expecting the higher scores.
TOEFL iBT is a four-hour test with content to assess reading, listening, speaking, and writing skills.
