Magoosh provided good practice tests for all areas of the TOEFL. Even with just 2 weeks of studying for the TOEFL, I was able to get a good score out of it. All thanks to Magoosh!

Provides lots of practice, questions are very similar to the actual exam. The amount of practice helped build confidence since it was my first time taking the exam. The explanations to the questions is the best part.

How did Magoosh help you?
Magoosh helped me a lot while preparing for the TOEFL exam. I was first a little weak in the writing section and I didn't understand why I got such a low grade in writing section of the exam. Later after learning from Magoosh, I understood that the TOEFL has a specific type of writing format, similiarly Magoosh also helped me in the listening section of the TOEFL exam. Just like they had guaranteed a +4 points on the exams, I got more than I had expected on the test.

How did Magoosh help you?
Magoosh was very helpful especially in the writing section. I followed Magoosh structure 100% for both writing Tasks. Also the reading section (how to scheme, and read questions before going to the paragraph), also how to eliminate wrong answer choices (both for the reading and listening sections). Magoosh really had some good to help with the speaking section along with the mobile app which came out..but I had a phobia for the speaking section because I wasnt prepared. However, thanks to Magoosh, I was able to score 23... It would have been worse.

Magoosh is the one-stop shop for TOEFL preparation. It is fair and lets students know when to refer the Official Guide vs when to rely on its own study material. The material is well organized, well paced and readily available on smartphones and laptop alike. The practice questions are great and really mirror the actual test. Also great work on creating the Speaking app: it's easy to use and allows practice at any time.
And lastly, it was really affordable too!

I was confident in my ability to perform well based on my command of the language. However, I found it difficult to strategise well and find the most efficient and effective way to get a great score. Magoosh lessons were very helpful in this, pointing out strategies and great examples accompanying them.

How did Magoosh help you?
It helped a lot. In the portal I mainly targeted reading and listening sections. The strange thing is that the difference between the score on portal and in actual test is only minor. This effectively speaks for the efficiency of the study materials provided.

How did Magoosh help you?
Although I am quite fluent in English, the Magoosh lessons were helpful. They helped me to get familiar with the format of the test and gave valuable thoughts on how to structure speaking answers.
I also found the tips on note taking helpful.
I took Magoosh for GRE as well.
What I love about Magoosh is the vast number of practice questions and the flexibility to work through them at my own pace.
