Hi everybody,
Does toefl scores really matter? I mean, what do u guys think is a "good score" to get admitted to any dental school through IDP program? -All suggestions are appreciated
Each school will need you to have the mimimum that they specified ( it doesnt matter how high you score), you just need to be above that mimimum score.
Those are the mim requirements they'll need to invite you for an interview.
Hi guys,
Thanks a lot for responding👍 Even I am aiming for 250, so that, atleast I will be elligible for applying to all dental schools! But the nbde part1 scores doen't work that way
so, guys can u help me by suggesting, how many hrs of study per day & how many days of preparation will be suffecient to get a "good score" to get in to a dental school? do I really have to memorise all pages in kaplan 😱 I have an ECE score of 3.8

I have scored 293/300 in my TOEFL with the 6.0+ in the essay.Had I not got the 2 ques wrong in the comprehension section I wud have ended up with a perfect score of 300.
About preparing for the exam frankly all you guys need to do is to get familiar with the format so when you take the actual exam you don't make any mistake in answering the question ....rather the way answer it.
After you register yourself with the ETS they will send u a CD which explains the format and has a couple of practise tests and topics for the essay.
The questions in the practise tests are actual TOEFL questions from the previous editions and have now been deleted from the question bank.
Essay is the most important and is mainly an argumentative type in which you are supposed to take sides on the given topic and explain the reasons for your stand.Make sure you are firm in your stand.....not sitting on the fence but do not make any offensive statements.
My topic was "Is Science and Mathematics more important then History and Literature?"Now the rule book told me that one of the examiners will be a Science/Maths teacher and one a Histroy/Literature teacher.So though I felt that S and M are more important I took care to mention that H and L are vital but the other two are MORE vital.
Thats the trick......state your stand firmly but do NOT run down the other side.
The most important thing.....KEEP YOUR COOL!
am sure all of you will walk through this one.

I took the toefl exam last week and my essay topic was
" Some people say that borrowing money from a friend might spoil your friendship" Do you agree or disagree?give reasons with specific examples. I hope this helps for those who are planning to take toefl this month. I heard that questions keep repeating for one month and then they delete them. I am not sure though.
