Can I retake the TOEFL?
Yes, you can retake the TOEFL. The conditions vary depending on the version of the test.
TOEFL IBT
For the TOEFL IBT, you must wait a minimum of 12 days between two sessions before registering again. You will also need to pay the registration fee each time you take the test. It is therefore highly recommended to be well prepared before registering to avoid additional costs.
TOEFL ITP
The TOEFL ITP is organized directly by your school or training center. To retake the test, check with your institution for the next available dates.
If you decide not to take the test on the initially chosen date and want to select another, you must cancel your registration at least 4 days before the test. After this deadline, you will have to pay the registration fee again.
Tips before retaking
- Analyze your score in detail by section to identify your weak points.
- Focus specifically on the sections where your score is the lowest.
- Take full practice tests under exam conditions before retaking.
The TOEFL IBT score is valid for 2 years from the test date.
