Your total TOEFL score is the sum of Reading, Listening, Speaking, and Writing scores. Each section is scored on a new 1.0-6.0 proficiency band scale in 0.5-point increments.

Yes. You must practice "Complete the Words" (filling missing letters) and "Build a Sentence" (unscrambling words). Also, the Speaking section now has "Listen and Repeat" and "Take an Interview" tasks with no preparation time, replacing the old 2025 independent tasks.
