The TOEFL iBT® test has launched a new score concept, MyBest™ Scores, to give institutions and agencies a more complete view of an applicant’s English language skills. MyBest Scores are the combination of the highest scores achieved on each section (Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing) and a total score that is the sum of the MyBest section scores. MyBest scores are drawn from all valid TOEFL iBT scores in the last two years.
From August 1, 2019, all TOEFL iBT ® score reports automatically include both scores from a single test date and MyBest scores.
TOEFL® test takers have welcomed this initiative, because it shows their best overall test performance across multiple tests.
Receiving institutions and agencies can decide whether to accept MyBest scores to meet their requirements, based on their individual needs and goals. Applicants for Australian visas should check the English-language requirements for their visa with the Department of Home Affairs.
