Content and Format
TOEIC® is a paper-based, multiple-choice examination that consists of two sections: listening comprehension and reading comprehension. Test scores have also been proven to be reliable indicators of spoken and written skills. The test takes approximately two and a half hours to administer. Scores range from 10 to 990, or 5 to 495 on each section. There is no set passing mark. More details may be found at www.toeic.com.
Open Testing 2008
Individuals can take the TOEIC® test on the following open testing dates:
** Candidate Satisfaction Survey
This survey is designed to measure the level of satisfaction each test taker experiences on test day. Please click the following link to complete the survey.
** The "Updated" TOEIC vs Current TOEIC
In November 2007 an updated TOEIC test will be administered in Hong Kong. It is currently available in Japan, Korea, Canada and the USA. There will be a cross-over period of approx. 18 months where we will be using both this "new" Test and the Current Test.
The redesigned test (referred to as "New" by ETS) is the result of a decade of ETS research on the English language and how people communicate in practical, everyday circumstances. The research confirmed the need for assessments that reflect authentic tasks such as those encountered in the global business environment. The new test reflects the work of ETS test development experts in both measuring how English is actually used in the business environment and maintaining the score scale of the current TOEIC test.
It is important to note that the new test has been slightly altered in structure, but there are many aspects of the current test that have been carried through to the new version. The current version that we have in Hong Kong is still a valid and reliable method of English Language Assessment, and the scores of both the current and new test are scaled to the same standard.
A new Official Test Preparation Guide should be available in late October 2007, which we will stock for purchase from our office. Keep checking our site for more information on this development.
