Erosophia - Language test preparation

TOEFL stands for Test of English as a Foreign Language, and ITP stands for Institutional Testing Program. Unlike the TOEFL iBT, which is taken in authorised test centres and intended for international applications, the TOEFL ITP is administered internally by educational institutions (universities, schools, training organisations): placement testing on entry, progress monitoring, validating an English level at the end of a programme, or admission to certain programmes.

The test assesses three receptive skills, entirely in multiple-choice format (no writing or speaking production). Level 1 — the most common version and the one reproduced on this platform — lasts about 1 h 55 and contains 140 questions.

Section	Duration	Questions	Description
1. Listening Comprehension	~35 min	50	Three parts: - Part A: short conversations, - Part B: longer conversations, - Part C: talks and mini-lectures. Each recording is played only once.
2. Structure & Written Expression	25 min	40	Two question types: - Structure: incomplete sentences (choose the missing grammatical element), - Written Expression: sentences in which you must identify the incorrect underlined segment (A, B, C, or D).
3. Reading Comprehension	55 min	50	Short academic passages, each followed by several questions: main idea, details, vocabulary in context, references, inferences.

The test is linear (not adaptive): all candidates receive the same questions in the same order, and you cannot return to a section once it is finished. On this platform, each section is timed separately, just like on exam day.

There are no penalty points for incorrect answers: always answer every question, even when unsure.
