TOEFL Vocabulary Test by Dynamic SheetsNew test sheet  
Vocabulary is an essential asset in English skills. TOEFL test takers have to build a strong vocabulary in preparation; otherwise, they have no chance to get a good score in the examination. In the TOEFL test, there is no exclusive section to test your vocabulary level. However, all test sections: reading, writing, listening, and speaking, are actually testing vocabulary skills in separate ways. As in all language tests, without good vocabulary, skill cannot have a good mark.

TOEFL is for non-native English speakers who are planning to apply for universities or other academic purposes in the USA, Canada, and other English countries. For most of EFL (English as a Foreign Language) students, English vocabulary is a shortcoming in nature; and as an academic-oriented test TOEFL vocabulary is quite large. If you want to have a high score in the test, normally, your vocabulary should be as large as 10000 or more.

Many TOEFL test takers spend lots of time on building a strong and test-friendly vocabulary. They may have various English vocabulary bases and different TOEFL score expectations. No matter what contents, methods, or tools they use to build TOEFL vocabulary, knowing actual vocabulary level and progress is the prerequisite to schedule plan and adjust pace.

This app, TOEFL vocabulary test online, whose basic functionality is to make TOEFL vocabulary test sheets in random, exactly does it for you. It has a built-in middle-level words list to power online test. Besides, as many other similar online practice tools, it also includes some auxiliary features, for example, save test results and compare with historical data, or even compare with others' test results to improve performance.
