What is the use of TOEFL?

The TOEFL test is familiar to those candidates who want to study abroad, but does this mean that it is useless for candidates who do not plan to go abroad to take the TOEFL test?

About "What's the use of TOEFL?" Many students who apply for studying in the United States think that TOEFL is only a language test, which is nothing more than the basis for schools to examine students' English ability. Actually, it's not. What's the use of taking TOEFL? This kind of problem has appeared in the psychology of the students who apply, especially those who have outstanding achievements and applied to the school without taking the language test.

Reading TOEFL in the United States is naturally the first choice, but with the increasing recognition of IELTS, many students regard IELTS as their language scores. There are big and small differences between IELTS and TOEFL. Although they are all language tests, the scoring mechanism and application direction are different. IELTS is the main choice for studying in Europe and Australia, and it is also a study visa for immigrants. So TOEFL can be said to be the most suitable test for studying in the United States. TOEFL is a key reference for language performance when applying for a school, and it can also be said that it is directly related to whether many students can apply successfully.

TOEFL can not only help schools, but also provide scholarships for interpersonal relationships. Students with good language performance will also greatly increase their chances of applying for scholarships, because the TOEFL test is one of the reference materials for applying for scholarships, and it is also an important standard for students to really keep up with their studies. Although scholarships should be awarded in a variety of ways, good English scores are needed to reflect whether students can keep up with normal learning progress. So if the language is not enough, the chances of applying for a scholarship can be said to be minimal.

Of course, it is also useful not to go abroad to take the TOEFL test, at least to prove your language ability. Most people have passed CET-4 and CET-6, and TOEFL is more convincing than CET-4 and CET-6, which is a bright spot. If you don't go abroad to take the TOEFL, you can find a job in a foreign company in China. Now some enterprises are more competitive if you have TOEFL or IELTS experience, and you will have a better chance if your score is ok. Therefore, a good score can make your resume easy to get the opportunity to apply. As for the next step, it depends on your own performance. So in general, the TOEFL test is not meaningless for students who don't go abroad.

The above is the purpose of TOEFL, and I hope it can help you. If you have any questions about studying abroad, please contact us!
