The English testing that we administer is similar to the paper-based TOEFL. The exam has three sections:
| Listening Comprehension | Structure & Written Expression | Reading Comprehension |
|---|---|---|
| 30 minutes - Measures the ability to understand spoken English.
Part A: Short dialogues |
25 minutes - Measures the ability to recognize standard written English.
Sentence completion (15 questions) |
55 minutes - Measures the ability to read and understand nontechnical material.
50 questions - approx. 5 passages |
