Long form & Short form in TOEFL Listening/Reading Post Mon Sep 12, 2011 8:50 am
Hi all,

Some people tell me that in real test we will always have 1 long form reading (i.e more than 3 passages) OR 1 long form listening (i.e. more than 6 lectures/conversations).

Is it true?

Thank you very much.

Yup, you'll get an extra experimental section for either Reading or Listening. This makes one of them longer.

Yeah, it's just that you don't know which one you'll get: the extra reading or the extra listening.
