My Thai student Chaochao Chavapol scores 720 on his TOEIC - Congratulations!

Chao’s TOEIC test debriefing:

45 minutes for listening – 100 questions

75 minutes for reading – 100 questions

1,200 baht


When I asked him was similar to my classes, he stated it was the 'same as class but easier'. Wow!

The reading exercises consisted of the following topics:

Accounting

Invoice

Email/letter

There were 10 photos in the listening part. He thoughts this was very easy as well. Chao also indicated he ran out of time and had to guess at the last 15 questions. Time management is a common problem with the TOEIC.

Below is another TOEIC test taker comments from Okinawa.


"Today, I took TOEIC test in Okinawa Christian University. I have ever taken this test twice. First i took 807 and the second was 870. The perfect score is 990. All questions in this test are not very difficult but the amount of questions is problem. We must answer 200 questions in 120 minutes, so time management is the most important factor. This time, I was not able to answer all questions. I failed to keep time management. Especially I took a lot of time in Part 7. Part 7 is the reading section. We read long passage and answer from 2 to 5 questions about this."
