Rs.7,300 (100 USD) can be taken at home and upon completion of the test, the participants can receive instant reading and listening scores, mybest score besides free and unlimited score reports.
“While the TOEFL iBT test has cemented its place as the gold standard in the international admissions space, we are expanding the portfolio with the innovative and versatile TOEFL Essentials test to allow students to choose a TOEFL test that best meets their testing style and preferences,” said Srikant Gopal, Executive Director, TOEFL Programme.
