TOEFL Writing · iBT

Read, listen, respond — in the order and timing of the real test.

The integrated task gives you three minutes with the passage, one play of the lecture, and twenty minutes to write. The passage disappears while the lecture plays, just as it does in the exam. Whatever you miss in the listening shows up in the answer.

Test format

  • Integrated Writing

    3 min reading · lecture · 20 min writing150–225 words suggested

    The lecture challenges or supplements three points from the passage. Reporting that relationship accurately is the task; adding your own opinion costs marks.

  • Writing for an Academic Discussion

    10 min100 words minimum

    A professor poses a question and two students reply. You add a contribution with its own reasoning, briefly and clearly.

What the mock test does

  • Reading, listening and writing stay in order

    Once a stage ends you cannot go back, and the lecture plays only once.

  • The passage is hidden during the lecture

    As in the real test. It reappears when writing begins.

  • Predicted 0–30 scaled score

    Both tasks are scored 0–5 and converted. The screen makes clear it is a conversion.

  • Current Academic Discussion format

    Built around the format introduced in 2023. The older Independent task is offered for practice only.
