*To convert your number correct on the three section review tests and on each section of the full-length
practice tests, use the TOEFL Score Conversion Tables on page 15 The Conversion Tables give TOEFL
scores for both the paper—based test and the computer—based test
**To estimate your TOEFL score for the total test, add the TOEFL scores for the three sections and divide
the sum by 3
Example:
On the paper~based test:
Listening score = 540 Structure score = 550 Reading score = 520
240 + 550 + 520 = 537
