taking the TOEFL
I've decided to take the TOEFL in a little more than 2 months. Of course I've been studying English for many years now and I've been using it for work as well, but I've never take such a test and I'm a little worried. The listening and writing part are main concern. Fact is, I always listen to movies and so on but I rarely talk to people in English so I really don't know what my supposed level is. I also often write e-mail in English but these are short texts and they are not about a specialized field. I'm also in a doubt about the time when I should take the test. They say that they'll mail the score to specific institutions in a 4-6 week time. I need the score only for work pourposes but I need an official statement regarding the score test. Do I need to wait for the score in my maibox or I can simply download the result from my web page on the TOEFL site? They say the results will be made public in 10 days from the test but they don't say if these results are official and if we can download or print them and submit them as a certification.
