How we work this out

What it does

See what percentage of TOEFL test takers scored below you, from ETS's own 2024 table, for your total or any section.

TOEFL iBT totals (0-120) and section scores (0-30) on the old scale, against everyone who took the test in 2024, plus the old range ETS links to each new 1-6 band.

Method

  1. We read the percentile ETS prints for your score in its 2024 score data summary.
  2. Between printed rows (totals are printed every few points) we draw a straight line between the two nearest rows and label the answer as an estimate.
  3. For a new 1-6 band we take the old score range ETS links to it and show where both ends of that range sat in 2024.
  4. Where a band maps to several old scores, the one percentile shown is the middle of their percentiles.
