This experience was initiated by someone from ETS asking me to "try pilot the new TOEFL". I was simply asked to try the new TOEFL and rewarded a voucher to do the test and $70 in adittion.
----Yes I took the new TOEFL iBT today which will start at September this year? ... here is some insight about the new TOEFL ---
Brief Introduction
There are some changes in the design and in the structure of the test. It looks more interesting and sophisticated than the previous one. Buttons are three dimensional and located conveniently at the top.
First you do to the reading, listening, speaking, and finally writting. Please note that there is no grammar section on the new TOEFL.
To provide articulate anaylsis on all these sections.. please let me start
Reading
Thee is much change a the reading party, and pretty much similar to the previous version. However, it may seems more workable as they divide the reading into 2 separate sections. Each section contain 2 readings with given time. Although basically its the same, at least you are not bombarded with 4 at once.
Here are some new kind of questions which rarely appear on the old version -Find a best sentence which describe the 0selected sentence on the passage (correct sentence should contain accurate information based on the passage)
-Making prediction / Projection. Its kindda silly and lil bit hard though this part.. all answers seems similar to me since no answer is included on the passage. basically its a test of luck?
-Summary. There will be one senence to introduce you for something, then you should choose few alternative that best suit the introduction. This question weighted more than usual question
-Please be aware. Many old questions type still come out. Such as inference, the main topic? why? what? what the words specifically mean? add a sentence to the passage? .. yea so basically its pretty much the same ^^ ..
