Hey, I wrote an article on the main page about converting raw TOEFL scores to scaled TOEFL scores. It even has a couple of handy charts you can use when you take practice tests. Check it out over here.

Hey, those of you who only read the blog (and not my main website) might have missed my new article. It covers the top ten TOEFL Writing mistakes students make in the independent essay. I’m quite proud of it, and it has gotten a lot of positive feedback. Check it out!
Okay, so no one reading this will care but I am feeling like Winston Smith. I could be losing my mind.
In 2018, the Korea Times published an article with the headline “ST Unitas’ worsening finance raises concerns.” My quote links to an archive of the original post. The article discusses how ST Unitas was losing a lot of money. That company owns the Princeton Review and does test prep classes (for TOEFL and other stuff).
Sometime after that, the headline was revised to read “ST Unitas posts W2.8 billion operating profit in 2017.” Which is strange, because the company actually posted a LOSS of W2.8 billion.
No official notice yet, but ETS has told me that the at-home version of the TOEFL has been extended to September 30.
Starting in July, it will be offered on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, 24 hours a day.
Currently, the test is available Tuesday through Friday.
Good news, everyone! The TOEFL Special Home Edition can now be taken on a Macintosh computer. Your computer must be running OS X 10.5 or later, and 10.13 (High Sierra) is recommended. It is no longer necessary to have Windows installed on your Macintosh computer.
To get started, you should download the ETS browser and then run the Proctor U system check. Early reports have indicated that some students have trouble with their microphone passing the system check, so I hope you guys can leave some feedback once you have tried it yourself.
