The Offi cial Guide to the TOEFL® Test
Installing the eBook
The test questions in the Offi cial Guide to the TOEFL® Test are from actual TOEFL iBT® tests. However, 
the screen and delivery formats are not identical to the actual test. When you take the actual test, you 
may notice some variations in how the questions are presented to you on screen.
Downloading the Practice Tests
When you purchase the eBook, you will receive 3 links. The fi rst link allows you to download the PDF fi le 
of the eBook itself.
The other 2 links contain the practice tests and the numbered audio tracks.
If you are using a PC, use the fi le named TOEFL_PC.exe. You will be guided through a short series of 
screens, and at the end of the process, the program will be installed on your computer.
If you are using a Mac®, use the fi le named TOEFL_Mac.dmg. 
For both PCs and Macs, an icon labeled “TOEFL” will appear on your desktop. Click on that icon to 
start the practice test program.
Main Menu
When you launch the practice test program, this screen appears:
Your choice will depend on how you prefer to prac-
tice for the TOEFL iBT test.
b  If you want to take full-length authentic TOEFL 
iBT practice tests on your computer, choose a 
test from the Main Menu.
b  If you only want to listen to the audio tracks, click 
on Audio Tracks.
Taking TOEFL iBT Practice Tests on Your Computer
On  the  Main  Menu,  choose  Practice  Test  1,  2,  or  3.  Then  click  on  the  test  section  you  wish  to  take: 
Reading, Listening, Speaking, or Writing. Note that you can take each section more than once.
When you open a test section, you will fi rst see the instructions for that section. A timer visible on 
the screen shows how many minutes and seconds you have left for that section. You can hide the timer 
if you fi nd it distracting.
If you must take a break during the test, click on the Menu button at the bottom and then select 
Back to Main Menu. Your work will not be lost, and when you resume, you will take up exactly where 
you left off. The timer clock will stop while you are on your break and will restart immediately when you 
resume the test. Try not to take breaks too often, because on the actual test, the clock keeps running even 
if you leave the room on a break.
