English as a Second Language Preparation for and help with the TOEFL® Test and
1

Hi all…
My name is Abee…
Actually, I like this website so much; it helped me a lot when I was preparing for my TOEFL.
I just got the result, and it is 90.
reading 18
listening 21
speaking 24
writing 27
However, the university is asking for 19 in reading, so I will have to re-take the test just because of this one point…
What do you think…do I need a lot of work ? what can I do ??? what should I read…? How to improve myself in the sections that seem to be bad??? and How much time do I need to be ready again ??
please help…I am so frustrated:-(

Thats really strange, usually unis ask for around 79 minimum grade. I don’t think you should waste your time taking another test, because these grades look good to me. You should check it out with other university or same university. I think one point does not matter this much!

Thanks so much for your reply Katty.
Actually, this is the reality( unfortunately).
The university is so strict with its rule and I have no other choices.
I just don’t know how to improve my reading and my skills overall.

That is sad. I guess you have to read more and listen more that way your writing skills will improve too. Watch english dramas, movies, read reader digest or books. Communicate. That might help you a lot.
