paragraph 2 question 2: b) isn't correct either because biofuel is made out of crop, it is nothing that grows. b) is actually never mentioned in the passage. for me d) is the best answer so not 100% if you are pedantic because it mentions "potentially". also, it was a mess finding the free pdf, after like ten logins and signups and emails
Thank you for your question. B is the answer. In the passage, the author states that "...a number of previously productive agricultural regions are no longer as fertile as they once were because of the weather".
I don't know why the answer of question 7 in the passage 1 is C. I cannot see any sign saying that the editor and the reviewer are two jobs that women cannot do.
This is a very good point. The connection here is not very strong. I guess the argument is because of all the other things she did that women could not do, like have access to library, it is unlikely other woman could have held jobs that required being well read, or jobs that required a high level education which most women could not get.
@@kartikanand5374 First of all, we are not ETS, we are a separate test prep school. We have mixed opinions about our tests, some people find them easier others find them more difficult than the TOEFL iBT, but in general, there are some tricky questions and answer choices in the real TOEFL iBT as well.
Hi, I have a question. In those questions where you have to choose up to 3 answers, if I get only a few or 1 of them right (for example: question 10 answer: A,E,F ; I put B,C,F) will I get any score out of this or I just got the question wrong? Btw, thank you for your videos, they are really helpful.
Hi there and thank you for asking. If all three choices are correct, award yourself two points. If two choices are correct and one is incorrect, award yourself one point. If two or more choices are incorrect, you earn zero points for the given question.
For the first paragraph question num 6, the passage says it was an all-male school until 1973, which means after that it was not. So, isn't option B incorrect since in the 20th century, it obviously wasn't an all-male school?
B would be true because in the 20th century (1973), Harvard stopped being an all male school. Since we are looking for the false answer, we cross it off.
Each section is still worth 30 points, but the number of Reading questions has been reduced. So, the weight of each question has changed, but each section is still worth 30 points.
Hi there and thanks for commenting. We have mixed opinions about our tests, some people find them easier, and others find them more difficult than the TOEFL iBT. There are some other UA-cam channels with TOEFL practice, I would try them as well to see how you do. Either way, good luck!
Hi there and thank you for commenting. If you struggle a lot with the TOEFL Reading, I would suggest investing time in a site like LingQ where you can do some extensive reading that is not connected to the TOEFL, that way you can build your skills and vocabulary with text that is a little bit easier before moving ahead with the TOEFL. If you need to talk to a teacher, you could also try a trial lesson and they can give you some pointers - tstprep.com/store/toefl/trial-lesson-for-the-toefl-ibt/

Hello again Josh! Thank you so much for all your masterpiece videos. I am having a question. The 10th question has 3 answers to choose.
