help me how to increase my toefl score

<p>I got a 293 on my first attempt .... the secret to my success was to enter the examination centre having not studied a word .... the reason behind this was to have confidence in your abilities and to go in pressure free.. i believe stress and lack of self confidence is the reason behind 'insufficient' scores so to speak... so " JUST CHILL"</p>

<p>Any one can give me some advices about writing please!!! It's so difficult to have brainstorm in only 2-5minutes. Sometimes, I really don't figure out any thing to write down. Some other topics, I write too long and don't have time to check for grammar and mispelling mistakes. Writing is really my limitation.</p>

<p>yeah thanks a lot. now i am reading english books. i have read 60 % of english books in my school library. approx.45. thanks to GOD
now my english is better. hey guys do you have any listening programs or smth which is helpful. any toefl programs?

<p>1/ <a href="http://www.Testmagic.com%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.Testmagic.com&lt;/a> : a very good web for Toefl program and SAT too. It also has a forum for you to ask a teacher about your E problem.
2/ <a href="http://www.usguidegroup.net/modules.php?name=Files&go=cat&cid=1%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.usguidegroup.net/modules.php?name=Files&go=cat&cid=1&lt;/a> :This is a page from Viet nam but it's easy to find the way to download thread. You can download lots of Toefl tests in every part: listening, reading, structure, TWE tips and sample essays. I strongly recommend this useful source.</p>

<p>hey guys if you have not read ' Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince '
then visit <a href="http://blogs.mit.edu/ximik/posts/15994.aspx%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://blogs.mit.edu/ximik/posts/15994.aspx&lt;/a> I think you can find some interesting facts about that book.</p>

<p>littlecalf thanks a lot.i have found what i needed</p>

<p>For those of you who will be taking CBT, this is a great website for free practice <a href="http://www.free-toefl.com%5B/url%5D"&gt;www.free-toefl.com&lt;/a> It requires you to register, but like I already mentioned, it’s free. Oh, and this is a note from that website
PLEASE NOTE: AFTER JULY 31st 2005 WE WILL BE MOVING THE FREE-TOEFL WEBSITE AND THE FREE PRACTICE TOEFL® TESTS (CBT & iBT) ALONG WITH THE FREE SOFTWARE TO:
WWW.FREE-ENGLISH.COM</p>

<p>i downloaded the free practice from the TOEFL website so i really recommend it. the format and everything is JUST like it was on the real test.</p>

<p>and how much did you pay for it or was it free?</p>
