Many Schools ask for TOEFL even though you may have studied in English medium. It is a very simple exam, you may not even be required to study for the exam. Go ahead , book it and take the test. All the best

If you are planning to take GMAT which I am sure you must be then do GMAT first and then TOEFL ibt's Reading Score will be amazing. GMAT develops great capacity to ace RC section so after GMAT when you will sit for TOEFL, no wonder you score 27-30 in RC portion of TOEFL. So GMAT first TOEFL next.

I think you may not be required to take the TOEFL if you've graduated from an university where your primary language of instruction was English. However, you should research this beforehand - and if you do have to take the TOEFL, don't fret! It's not a difficult test!

There are many collages in US, wherr are not compulsory TOEFL. But if you want to take admission in best collages of US, You should give the TOEFL because their are compulsory TOEFL. The purpose of the TOEFL test is to evaluate the potential success of an individual whose native language is not English to use and understand standard American English at a college level. No matter where in the world you want to study, the TOEFL test can help get you there.

You cannot get admission without TOFEL. TOFEL is mandatory to get admission everywhere in USA.
