There are many types of language tests such as TOEFL, IELTS, TOEIC, DELF, and many others that assess different aspects of a language.

The validity period of language test results may vary, but it is usually 2 years from the date of taking the test.

The most popular language tests for admission to educational institutions in English-speaking countries are TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) and IELTS (International English Language Testing System). These tests are widely recognized and accepted by most educational institutions in the USA, UK, Canada, Australia and other English-speaking countries.

The main difference between TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) and IELTS (International English Language Testing System) is the format of the tests. TOEFL is primarily a computer-based test, while IELTS involves an oral interview with an examiner. Another difference is that TOEFL is more often required for admission to educational institutions in the United States, while IELTS is more popular in the United Kingdom and some other countries. In addition, TOEFL assesses academic English, while IELTS provides a broader assessment of language proficiency, including academic and general English.

The question of which test is easier depends on the individual preferences and skills of the candidate. Some people find IELTS easier because of its oral part, while others prefer TOEFL because of its computerized format. Difficulty can be subjective and preparation plays a key role in the success of both tests. It is recommended that you choose the test that meets the requirements of the school you plan to attend.

TOEFL score requirements for admission to Ivy League universities may vary from university to university and program to program. However, in most cases, it is recommended that applicants have a TOEFL score of 100 or higher on the iBT (Internet-based test) to successfully apply to Ivy League universities. The exact requirements should be checked with each specific university, as they may vary.

Yes, there are many courses and programs for language test preparation abroad. Many study centers and language schools offer intensive TOEFL, IELTS, SAT and ACT preparation courses. These courses usually include basic skills training, test practice, and support from experienced teachers to help students improve their language test scores.

The time required to prepare for the TOEFL and IELTS can vary greatly depending on your initial level of English and individual ability. It is generally recommended to start preparing early and allow 2 to 3 months for sufficient preparation. However, for some students, especially if their language level is already high, less time may be required and for others more time may be needed.

In addition to TOEFL and IELTS, there are various alternative language tests such as PTE Academic, Cambridge English Exams, TOEIC and Duolingo English Test. These tests are also recognized by many universities and educational institutions in different countries and can be alternative options for demonstrating English language proficiency when applying abroad.

You can retake both TOEFL and IELTS an unlimited number of times. The limitation is that there must be an interval of time between successive attempts. Typically, test organizations require you to wait 12 days between two adjacent TOEFL iBT exams and 13 days between two IELTS attempts. It is important to check the official TOEFL and IELTS websites for specific rules and restrictions.
