abbreviated test of English language proficiency (American accent) are required
to sign in to college (college) or university in the United States or other
countries in the world. This exam is required for applicants or speaker native
language is not English. TOEFL exam is organized by the office of ETS
(Educational Testing Service) in the United States for all test takers around
the world. Types TOEFL English test is generally required for college entrance
requirements at most universities in the United States and Canada for
undergraduate programs (S-1) and graduate (S-2 or S-3). The results of the
TOEFL test is also used as a consideration of the language skills of the
students who apply to universities in other countries, including
universities in Europe and Australia. In general, the TOEFL test is more
oriented to American
English, and a bit different from the types of IELTS test orientation to
British English. Unlike IELTS, TOEFL test is generally not have individual part
interview test. Usually this test takes about three hours and is organized in
four parts, namely the: listening comprehension, grammar structure and written
expression, reading comprehension, and the writing. Values ranged
TOEFL exam results: 310 (minimum) to 677 (maximum value) for the version of the
PBT (paper-based test). Since 1998, the TOEFL test is conducted online using a computer
(Computer-based Testing / CBT), and since 2005 called the iBT (Internet-based
Test). In places that have not been able to implement CBT or iBT (because there
are no computer facilities and internet network), the TOEFL exam is still
conducted manually using paper and pencil (paper-based test or PBT). More
information about the test CBT and paper-based TOEFL relating to registration,
venue, cost, and test preparation materials can be found on the official
website of TOEFL, http://www.toefl.org (CBT version of the TOEFL exam results
have value ranges from 0 to 300, while the value for the iBT is from 0 to 120)
[1]. Lately TOEFL test organizers also held a kind of test TWE (Test of Written
English) are the result of separate value TOEFL test scores. This test takes 30
minutes, and participants will be asked to write a short essay that describes
the ability of participants to express and pour a thought or idea, and supports
the idea with examples found in everyday life in the English language that
standards. Another type of test is TSEP TOEFL (Test of Spoken English Program)
which is similar to that of individual interviews on the IELTS test. This test
is usually used when we want to register as a teaching assistant or lab assistant
(as one way to offset the cost of tuition) in universias in the U.S. (or other
countries). Forms of tests conducted orally and lasts for about 20 minutes.
Time management and deadline for registration is the same as the other TOEFL
tests, and costs about U.S. $ 100. ( Andriyani, 2013)
