TOEFL (Normal, Jr, iBT, pBT)

Prep School Admissions

<p>Hi guys,</p>

<p>First off, I was wondering if I had to take the TOEFL test, I am an international applicant, and english is not my first language, although I have studied it for more than 7 years already.</p>

<p>Secondly, at the test center where I live, they were suggesting I take the TOEFL Jr. Test, which is for students age under 14. I am not sure if I should take the Jr version or to just take the normal version, which is why I am asking online. </p>

<p>And lastly, I was wondering what differences the internet based version and the paper based version for TOEFL are, which one you think is easier, and how well you did for it.</p>

<p>Thank You! :)</p>

<p>Yes, TOELF is required for international students. I think you should take TOEFL iBT (internet based) and try to aim for above 105+ if you’re applying to the more selective prep schools. I took the iBT and got 110. I don’t know what the paper version is like, but schools generally prefer the internet based version because it includes speaking.</p>

<p>In short, take the normal, iBT version just to be sure.</p>
