Going to the United States to take TOEFL or IELTS?

It is best to take the TOEFL in America. IELTS is only recognized by 70-80% American schools. The better the school, the less recognized it is and the more biased it is. In other words, you must achieve a correspondingly higher score.

Academic English vs everyday English

IELTS, the TOEFL comparative test for academic English, focuses on everyday English. Therefore, the TOEFL vocabulary is relatively large, requiring at least 8000. IELTS generally thinks that mastering CET-6 vocabulary is enough.

Multiple choice questions vs fill-in-the-blank questions

In addition, TOEFL has many multiple-choice questions, which are more suitable for China candidates. IELTS is mostly fill-in-the-blank questions.

Composition and oral English

As far as sub-items are concerned, IELTS composition is difficult and it is difficult to get high marks. Speaking TOEFL is more difficult, especially the comprehensive part of the new TOEFL plus, which is really abnormal.

Recognize all kinds of English

Both TOEFL and IELTS admit that there is no discrimination between Britain, the United States, Britain and Australia, as long as it is not Chinglish.

It helps to attend cram schools.

Going to cram school is really helpful. Don't do it yourself at home.
