Achieving the highest score on the TOEFL requires strategy, focus, and confidence. Here are some test-day tips to maximize your performance.

Before the Test

Get a good night’s sleep. Aim for at least seven to eight hours of sleep to stay alert.

Eat a healthy meal. A balanced breakfast with protein, fiber, and low sugar helps maintain energy.

Arrive early. Plan to be at the test center at least thirty minutes early to avoid stress.

Bring required documents. Check your identification, confirmation email, and any allowed materials.

Warm up your English. Read an article or listen to a podcast before entering the test room.

During the Test

Skim first, then read in detail. Read the questions first to know what to look for.

Guess intelligently. If unsure, eliminate wrong answers and make an educated guess.
