How did Magoosh help you?
It was very convinient to have a lot of TOEFL questions in one place with explicit explanations to every wrong answer, so I can understand why it's wrong. I also used flashcards and they helped me a lot - most of real TOEFL vocabulary questions were with this words. |

How did Magoosh help you?
I was so worried about the speaking and writing sections as TOEFL emphasizes on structured responses. The templates and the videos on structuring responses for the speaking and writing sections aided me enormously on the test day. Moreover, the practice questions with varied levels of difficulty -especially in the listening section- helped me a lot! |

How did Magoosh help you?
Very Comprehensive guide. Helped me a lot with the Speaking section. Lucas made the section easier for me with his short videos. This really made it for me. I also scored 30 on my Reading section. Magoosh passages are hands down the best practice materials to score 30. The Listening questions from Magoosh were exactly similar to those of the ETS. I didn't need much of a practice for Writing but there were 18 questions that I went through from my Magoosh dashboard. For me, Magoosh us the number one source for Toefl practice. |

The explanations were key to understand my mistakes. That's what I believe makes magoosh the best; you improve your understanding of the specific things certain type of questions look for. |

How did Magoosh help you?
A lot! Did a one week magoosh crash course preparing for the exam! And it worked out pretty good. I watched almost all your videos in higher speed, for efficiency matters :) And then did some practice tasks. I got a good idea about structure and the most important points to look out for. Without those my score wouldnt be as high. However, I was disappointed with my reading score. The passages in the original toefl preparation book and on the magoosh site seemed to me not as difficult as the passage during the test. I had the 80 minutes reading part, and struggled sometimes with the "easy" questions (like vocabulary) and felt the time pressure... |

How did Magoosh help you?
Magoosh offers a variety selection of practicing materials, which is extremely cool! The practicing question provided is harder than actual TOEFL test, so after working with Magoosh, I found real TOEFL exam really simple. Besides, Magoosh also provide scoring service, so I can know how well I've done in practice session, together with the advice of where to improve. |

How did Magoosh help you?
The Magoosh GRE package which I took earlier, was much better than the TOEFL package. The TOEFL package seems very underdeveloped compared to that (it is a ridiculously high standard that you have set with your GRE course). While GRE package was aimed at getting 340/340, the TOEFL package never seemed to help the student aim above 110. But yes, it did give me a whole feel of the test and some very useful tips and tricks ! Thank you to MAGOOSH ! |

I could get a feel of the sample questions that can come on the actual test. I got a lot of practice. If I would have tried to do it on my own, I would not have been able to get enough practice within one month. |
