How did Magoosh help you?
I had only five weeks to prepare for my TOEFL exam. I am working full time so had only the weekends and evenings to study. Magoosh assisted me with the practice tasks. I had never taken TOEFL before so didn't know anything about it. The practice tests helped me to familiarize myself with the structure and timing which is the most important part of the exam. I completed all practice tests thus I had more practice and confidence when I attended the actual exam. I agree with one of the previous testimonials which stated that the actual exam questions were easier than the Magoosh practice questions.

How did Magoosh help you?
When I took the TOEFL two years ago I had no idea of the test's format. I did not review at all. I scored quite low because I did not know what to expect. I also got confused with some of the instructions and was rattled by the timer. With Magoosh, I went to the testing center very confident. Although I am one point shy from my target score, the difference Magoosh made was really apparent.

It was my first attempt in TOEFL exam, but I didn't perform well. But a big Kudos to Magoosh team, who helped me with my studies effectively and in very less time. As I am working person and so, I could hardly give time to studies , but in last two weeks before exam, I practice with Magoosh TOEFL Premium and it helped me really to the core in understanding the format of exam.

I was very weak in speaking section. Magoosh's practice questions and explanatory answers were a big help for me. I understood how to pace my speech, the intonations and what and what not to deliver. This improved my confidence in speaking section and in turn improved my overall confidence for the exam. I was calm and relaxed during the exam.
