Your TOEFL score is valid for only two years. In other words, two years
after you take your TOEFL, your score will be deleted from the official TOEFL
database and they will not send you another report of your score. If you still
have a copy of your original score, you can ask the university whether they
will accept it, but most universities will not accept a copy from you; they
require a score directly from TOEFL
To Raise Score in TOEFL?
Some people can raise their scores by speaking and watching television
and American movies, other people can raise their scores by studying the TOEFL.
The answer really depends on the student
This is usually the first question that people ask.
It is extremely difficult to say--each person is different. Some people
learn languages very quickly, others need more time. Learning a new
language is very similar to learning any other skill, like ballet dancing
or painting--some people learn very quickly because they have a natural
ability in that area, others need more time
However, in general, most
people need from two to six hours of study for each point
