TOEFL Exam Date Planning: Factors to Consider

Here are some considerations when planning your TOEFL Exam Date In 2023.

1. Learn about the application deadline for the college or University you plan to apply. Every college/university comprises a specific deadline. The sooner you know about those specific application deadlines, the better.
2. Review your current English proficiency. If you aren't unsure about your skill level, it's best not to schedule the test too soon. Give yourself sufficient time to improve your English reading, listening, writing, and speaking competencies. 
3. Also, evaluate your test familiarity and overall preparation. TOEFL exams can be tricky, especially for 1st timers. It's best to practice with many sample papers and take online mock tests to overcome test-taking hurdles on your first attempt. With extensive practice, your problem-solving skills and logical thinking skills will improve.   
4. Also, follow the test availability when planning your TOEFL exam date. While the test is conducted numerous times throughout the year, certain locations may have limited slots or none available during specific months. So, available test dates and availability at your shortlisted exam centers. Accordingly, plan and register in advance at your convenience.
5. Finally, consider personal scheduling the TOEFL if you have prior commitments like a part-time job or family duties. Choose a date around those responsibilities. It will help you focus on the exam without any distractions.
