TOEFL Preparations

The TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) is a standardized academic English test primarily taken by students applying to universities in the United States. The TOEFL is also accepted as proof of English ability by most universities outside the United States.

Since its introduction in late 2005, the TOEFL Internet-based Test (iBT) format has progressively replaced the computer-based tests (CBT) and paper-based tests (PBT), although paper-based testing is still used in select areas. The TOEFL iBT test has been introduced in phases, with the United States, Canada, France, Germany, and Italy in 2005 and the rest of the world in 2006, with test centers added regularly.

The TOEFL iBT is composed of four sections – reading, listening, speaking, and writing. The TOEFL is a long and rigorous test (over 4 hours) designed to assess whether or not students are ready to study in an English-speaking university. Many students spend 3 to 6 months preparing for the TOEFL before taking the exam.

Scoring

A TOEFL score on the online version of the test is on a scale of 0 to 120 and is valid for 2 years. Scores on the paper-based version are on a different scale, but there is an official conversion table published for that test. A student may take the TOEFL as many times as he wants, but no more than once every 12 days.

PTE PREPARATIONS

Why to choose PTE? First of all, it is recognized by many Universities, Colleges, and Governments worldwide. UK, US, Australia and New Zealand are among the few countries who accept PTE. It is also approved by the Australian Department of Immigration for migration or study abroad purposes. So you can get your score and you will be accepted into the universities or the countries that you desire to move to. Besides that PTE has very fair and consistent marking schemes, especially in the speaking and writing sections. So if you are a student that’s been struggling to score in speaking or writing sections in other English exams. This exam might be very appealing to you in terms of it caters more fair and consistent marking in the speaking and writing sections. So also this exam is fully computer-based, so for those who are uneasy and uncomfortable dealing with examiners or interacting with people, maybe PTE would suit you better. Besides that PTE results usually come out within three days, sometimes you can even get it the day after your exam as well. So results are fast so you can get to make decisions quickly on how to improve and what your next step would be. For a lot of students that have never taken this exam before, PTE seems very daunting and complicated but with enough preparation in the good direction, we are very confident that you will be able to get the marks that your desire.

SAT PREPARATIONS

The Scholastic Aptitude Test, also known as the SAT, is taken by high school juniors and seniors applying to colleges and universities. This exam can be taken internationally six times during the year. Find out when to take it, how to take it, and why as we discuss the SAT in more detail. The Scholastic Aptitude Test, or SAT, is a global recognized test admitting students into colleges and universities all over the United States.

About the SAT The SAT test is taken by high school students to demonstrate to colleges what the prospective student knows and how well they can apply their knowledge. There are three aspects of the test: reading, writing, and math. SAT scores are sent out to your desired colleges and universities as part of the admissions package. Colleges and universities look at the combination of high school grades and SAT scores. This combination serves as a prediction of a student’s future academic success. A student’s scores on the reading, math, and writing sections will project the student’s ability to handle college courses in critical reading, mathematics, and writing. The content of these courses is more complex in college than it is in high school, but the skills and their practical application are the same. The skills assessed on the SAT are skills that you have been learning since you started grade school. The skills that will be assessed are critical reading, grammar and usage, identifying errors in a written passage, arithmetic operations, algebra, geometry, statistics, and probability. You will show your knowledge of these skills through the process of answering multiple choice questions. There will also be a written essay portion of the exam. The SAT is meant to show your scholastic ability. Logic and abstract thinking are not tested during the taking of the SAT.

Format The SAT is the more reliable and validated standardized test in the United States and around the world. The three sections are all assessed during the same day. The SAT is a timed test. The test, if a student uses all the time available to them, takes three hours and 45 minutes. Within these three skill sets—reading, mathematics, and writing—there are 10 separately timed sections. Three sections of the test focus on reading, three on mathematics, and three on writing. The tenth section is a variable section that could be any one of the three subjects. This last section is not scored. Possible SAT questions are being tested on students every year. This final section is made up of questions that a board of educators has already approved for the SAT question bank, but need to be tested on current high school students. SAT questions are constantly being changed and updated. Questions are tested on current high school students to determine whether they are learning these topics in school or not. The SAT is a test that assesses the reading, writing, and mathematical skills that students have been taught from grades K-12 (with perhaps the exception of English if that is your second language).

GRE PREPARATIONS

Most people take the GRE to get into grad school or to secure a merit-based fellowship for grad school. The GRE is a common grad school admissions requirement for both master’s programs (including Master of Arts, Master of Science, and even some Master of Fine Arts programs) and Ph.D. programs. At present, thousands of master’s and doctoral programs accept GRE scores, including more than 1,200 business schools, several of which are top-ranked M.B.A. programs. GRE scores are also accepted by many fellowship sponsors. So chances are at least one of the programs you’re applying to will require GRE scores. (This assumption only applies if you’re getting a master’s degree or Ph.D. For other types of grad degrees, applicants are typically required to take an entirely different test for admission, such as the GMAT, LSAT, or MCAT.)

If you’re not sure whether you need to take the GRE, it’s best to consult your programs directly. Remember, if you don’t take the GRE and scores are required for admission to a program, you won’t be able to complete your grad school application — and therefore can’t get into that program! But before we dive into whether you should take the GRE or not, let’s answer another question: what is the purpose of the GRE exam?

What Is the Overall Purpose of the GRE?

The GRE tests your preparedness for grad school and is designed to predict how successful you’re likely to be as a grad student (we’ll touch more on this later). The exam contains three sections that test different skill sets deemed critical for grad school success. These sections and what they test you on are as follows: Verbal Reasoning: your vocab knowledge and reading comprehension abilities Quantitative Reasoning: your problem-solving abilities and your knowledge of fundamental math topics (arithmetic, algebra, geometry, and data analysis) Analytical Writing: your ability to construct a cogent essay using clear evidence and correct grammar, spelling, punctuation, and capitalization

GMAT PREPARATIONS

What is the GMAT exam, and who must take it? If you're asking yourself, What is the GMAT? — or if you want to know whether you need to take the GMAT — the FAQ on this page is the place to start. What is the GMAT? The GMAT (Graduate Management Admission Test) is a 3½-hour standardized exam designed to predict how test takers will perform academically in MBA (Masters in Business Administration) programs. GMAT scores are used by graduate business schools to make admission decisions. You might sometimes see the GMAT referred to as the GMAT CAT. The acronym CAT stands for Computer Adaptive Test. Actually, only two of the exam's four sections (Quantitative and Verbal) are computer-adaptive, meaning that during those sections only the test adapts to your ability level as you go. The GMAT is administered only by computer now, except that in certain remote locations outside North America a paper-based version of the exam is available instead. (Since you're reading this on the Web, in all likelihood the computer-based GMAT is available where you are.) Who is responsible for the design and administration of the GMAT? The GMAT is developed by GMAC (Graduate Management Admission Council), which determines what kinds of skills the GMAT should measure — and how it should measure them. Another organization actually develops the test questions, administers the test, and reports test scores to the schools — all at the behest of GMAC. Do I need to take the GMAT for admission to an MBA program? To gain admission to an MBA program, chances are you'll need to take the GMAT. About two-thirds of the 1,900+ graduate business schools around the world require GMAT scores for admission, although an increasing number of schools accept GRE General Test scores as an alternative to GMAT scores. Schools that do not require GMAT scores nevertheless welcome GMAT scores to help access an applicant's qualifications. NOTE: Schools that do not require GMAT or GRE scores generally have relatively lenient admission standards and/or are located outside North America. What cognitive skills, or abilities, does the GMAT measure? The GMAT seeks to measure four broad skill areas: analytical writing, quantitative reasoning, verbal reasoning, and integrated reasoning (which embraces analytical, quantitative, and verbal reasoning). The exam gauges these skills through four discete components, presented in the order listed here: a 30-minute Analytical Writing Assessment (one writing task) a 30-minute Integrated Reasoning section (12 multiple-choice questions, most of which are multi-part) a 75-minute Quantitative section (37 multiple-choice questions) a 75-minute Verbal section (41 multiple-choice questions) For each of the four exam sections, a separate scaled score and percentile rank are awarded. A combined Quantitative/Verbal score (called a Total score) and corresponding percentile rank are also awarded. The GMAT is not a pass/fail test. How important are GMAT scores in the B-school admissions process? Each graduate business school develops and implements its own policy concerning the use of GMAT scores in making admissions decisions. Many schools screen applicants by combining GMAT scores and undergraduate GPA (each school determining for itself their relative weight), then ranking all applicants in their initial pool accordingly. In addition — especially after the initial screening of applicants — admissions officials consider subjective factors such as work and other relevant experience, recommendation letters, reports of personal interviewers, and personal statements (application essays). In making difficult decisions between two or more similarly qualified candidates, admissions officials rely less on GMAT scores and GPA and far more on these other, more subjective factors.
