TOEFL Speaking

Practice is the only thing that comes to mind. Unfortunately, I don't have a shortcut. Or just use the first idea that pops into your head? I had a question asking me about someone I'd like to meet and I just used Tiger Woods, because that scandal had recently broken out and he was the first person I could think of

Hello Vineet.
I had the same problem as you. I too had a major problem with speaking within the time frame. I suggest you visit this site - https://www.notefull.com/ The founder Joseph Miranda gives amazing tips on Speaking (He actually has videos on how to tackle all the parts of the test. But I found his videos on Speaking the best). He also has his videos up on youtube.
I followed his tips and scored a 29 in Speaking.
