Writing Section of TOEFL


In the Writing Section of TOEFL you have to compose an essay based on one single assigned topic. Your essay should include such elements as original thought, analysis, examples, evidence and organization in English. You can choose between composing your essay at a computer or using the traditional hand-written format.

Because computer-adaptive testing is not possible on the paper-based TOEFL test (PBT), the PBT has three question difficulty levels. Thirty percent of PBT TOEFL test questions are categorized as easy, forty percent are medium and thirty percent are difficult. At the beginning of each section you will find easy-level questions which are followed by medium-level questions and difficult questions at the end.
