TOEFL after GMAT? How difficult? Post Fri Sep 02, 2011 7:31 am
Hey everybody,

I'm gonna take the GMAT in one week and two weeks later the TOEFL Test as I am not a native speaker. I have several friends, who told me, that the TOEFL is not very difficult, once you have stayed in the UK or US for a few months.

Does anybody has got experience regarding preparation for the TOEFL, once one did the GMAT? I mean, reading and AWA must be similar (however, I suppose the GMAT is much harder). Or am I underestimating the Test?

Thanks a lot!

I think the TOEFL is indeed much easier than the GMAT, but they test somewhat different things. The AWA is very different, but I've put together some templates you can use: http://www.beatthegmat.com/writing-tips-templates-t51509.html

Good luck!
