Hi everyone
my next test will be on Oct 13, 2014
I need at least 79 to be accepted at university ugh..
2nd time my score was 63 R8,L11,S22,W21
3rd time my score was 78 R17,L17,S22,W22
I took the test last week but it was too difficult so i don't think i will make it in my 4th time ):

I prepared for the toefl last time by using
1.notefull ( 3steps toefl mastery)
2.longman prep
3.delta's toefl prep
The only section I'm confident with writing but I don't know what to do with the other sections
What should I do to get 79 ??

I'll be grateful to you guys (:

You don't have much time. Check out this article that I often pass on to my international clients from U.S. News & World Report: https://www.usnews.com/education/blogs/i ... -the-toefl

The best thing you can do is actually listen to the language, given your short time frame. Listening, will then help you pick up nuances intuitively, alongside your more traditional studying.

Hope that helps!

I used the 3step notefull program and I think not much other material is needed? Well, the OG but I suppose you already used that book ?
I truly believe, besides having an average command of the language, that's all you will need. Don't spend any further money on stuff that does not work.

"Target Test Prep is the closest to the official version of the GMAT exam, about 99% accuracy in terms of the quality and quantity of information. The course has excellently created singular sets of focused lessons and tests for every possible topic that one could come across in the official GMAT exam."

"The TTP course maximizes the efficiency of the time you spend studying. It will take time and effort but I could almost guarantee that if you complete the course exactly as it is laid out you will get an amazing score. They also have a very responsive team willing to help with any questions you might have."

"TTP has two things that I think no other test prep company offers: A teaching approach that reinforces understanding and an attitude that will give you the mental preparedness needed to succeed on the test. TTP gives you a deep understanding of the concept you need to know while teaching you how to think."
