标题: toefl机考FAQ
Right after you finish the computer-based TOEFL, you'll have the option of either viewing your scores on the computer screen where you've taken the test or canceling your test scores. Once you view your scores, they become "official" and you cannot cancel them. If you cancel your scores, you'll have to wait until the next calendar month to retake the TOEFL.

[B]What about my essay scores?[/B]
Good question. You are able to see your final scores for the Listening and Reading secti##被过滤##. But the Structure & Written Expression section score and total TOEFL score you see right after the test will only be in score ranges, because the computer can not evaluate your essay. These ranges cover the possible final Structure & Written Expression and overall TOEFL scores you could get, depending on how good (or bad) your essay is.

[B]How is the test scored?[/B]
The essay written in the Writing section will be graded by two readers on a scale ranging from 0 to 6. The essay score is then combined with the score for the Structure section. You will then receive two types of scores for the CBT. A scaled score between 0 and 30 will be given for the Listening Comprehension, Structure, and Reading Comprehension secti##被过滤##. These three scores are then combined and translated into a total score that ranges between 0 and 300.

You get your essay scores and final scores on a printed score report that will be mailed to you about two weeks after the test.

[B]What is a good score?[/B]
There is no "passing" or "failing" score on the TOEFL. The test only measures your English language proficiency. Individual colleges and universities set their own TOEFL score standards for admission. Scores can range from a low of 133 to a high of 267 or more. A score of 300 is c##被过滤##idered perfect.

[B]How long are TOEFL scores valid?[/B]
ETS keeps TOEFL scores on file for two years, although university admissi##被过滤## officers may require or prefer a recent exam taken within the last six months to a year. After two years, you won't be able to order official score reports for a test from ETS.
