## How to use a free TOEFL test

* Do [Speaking out loud](/toefl/speaking) and record yourself; reading answers silently hides problems with pace and pronunciation.
* Time the [Writing tasks](/toefl/writing) strictly: the email and the discussion post are short and fast.
* Note which task types cost you points, then practise those, not whole sections.
* Keep one official ETS test for close to test day.

Our [free TOEFL mock](/toefl/practice-test) gives a band for each section on the 1–6 scale with its CEFR level, and marks your Writing and Speaking with feedback.

## FAQs

Are there free official TOEFL practice tests for 2026?

Yes. ETS offers Full-Length Practice Tests 1 and 2 in the January 2026 format on ets.org, launched after a short form, and a free practice test inside a free TestReady account.

Are old TOEFL practice tests still useful?

Only partly. The January 2026 test has different tasks and a 1–6 score scale, so use current-format tests to judge your level.

How is the new TOEFL scored?

Each section and the overall score are reported from 1 to 6 in half steps; the overall is the average of the four sections. During the transition ETS also reports a [comparable 0–120 score](/articles/toefl-score-conversion).
