[help] some questions

caobike

I've got several questions:

1. Is there anybody taking the TOEFL IBT test on Aug. 25? If so, is the JJ available before Saturday?

2. In the Reading section, are we allowed to use the REVIEW feature and come back to the questions you have done?

3. In the Listening section, we are not allowed to come back to the previous questions, right?

Thanks!

Just can reply your last two questions.

2. In the Reading section, are we allowed to use the REVIEW feature and come back to the questions you have done?

Yes. You can use the review feature but only within one article.
    

3. In the Listening section, we are not allowed to come back to the previous questions, right?

You are correct!

Yes. You can use the review feature but only within one article.
    

So, does that mean if I am working on Article III, I can never come back to Article II, although they are in the same 40-minute section?

Also, if I only spend 18min on article II, then I will have 22min on article III, right?

Thank you very much!!!

For article II and III, I remember that you can review because the time is counted totally.

Also, if I only spend 18min on article II, then I will have 22min on article III, right? You are correct !

Actually, you cannot go back to article II once you get article III even though they are in the same section.

Oh, thank you vansunshine MM!

caobike

Thank you!!!

May I have another two questions please?

1. In the Kaplan and Longman prep courses, we are given only 3 min to finish reading the reading passage in the writing section essay I. However, in the ETS official sample, we are allowed to have 5 min. What happens on the real TOEFL test? What is the length of that article on the real test compared to that on the sample?

2. What is your normal time spent on reading an article (just read without looking at a simple question) in the reading section (20min is allowed)?
