Hey guys! I've just found this forum and it's truly great!!! Smile
Anyway... i'm planning to take the TOEFL test, but I really don't know much about que pontuation.
So, I was wondering... what is the minimun score you people think can be considerate "good"?

Hoping for a feedback!!!

Hi Christie,

I am planning to take the test too.

So you will take the iBT test, right? How are you learning these days? Are you going to English class? I am learning at home and too much wondering about the atmosphere around the new test.

The range of TOEFL iBT score is from 0 to 120. "Good" score depends on schools who request your English certification. For TOEFL PBT, some schools I knows (in US and Korea) requires minimum score of 500, 550 and even 600 or more. I am not sure about iBT, but maybe the equivalence will be applied. You can find the score comparision table here:

And you should ask the school you will apply to about minimum score that they require.
