3 days is very little time to prepare. I have found that, for quick improvement, this book is great:

It gets straight to the point and gives methods to answer questions according to the rules of the test. Just follow what it says and the TOEFL will be easy to earn a high score.

I actually bought it on Amazon. Copy and paste the name on the search bar and it’s done, and might even be cheaper. For instance, I bought this oneand was pretty good (5 official practice tests with answers key. There are several available version.

Impossible to say, as ETS hasn't made that clear. But they are probably using the same scale as on the old score reports (sample: https://www.slideshare.net/ThomasRousingSchmidt/toefl-english-test-scores-may-2015)

So a high writing score is 24-30, and a mid-level writing score is 17-23.

A high speaking score is 26-30, and a mid-level speaking score is 18 to 25.

Probably.

I was surprised that you give me a reply since the posting was 3 months ago! Thank you for helping me.

I've made this FREE/AD-FREE android app where you can exercise/improve your vocabulary for TOEFL, IELTS, and other tests with an English component. I feel it is a good additional resource to aid your TOEFL prep! I'll drop the link below. If you have any feedback or thoughts I'd love to hear from you! :))

Keep in mind that the task is simple and that you don't have to speak perfect English to score over 20. Basically, the TOEFL is asking, "Do you understand what you heard? Prove it by repeating what you heard."

The important thing is to follow the RUBRIC. The explanations of the RUBRIC in most books is confusing, so here it is simplified:

1. Speak clearly in English only.
2. Have no long pauses or extra words like "uh," or "um."
3. Give relevant reasons, examples, and details for Q1, and accurate reasons, examples, and details for the remaining questions.
4. Use proper English grammar.

For more detailed information on haw to take notes and respond correctly, check out this book. It is simple and direct with precise directions for answering each question type.

The TOEFL is expensive, so you don't want to take it again. GOOD LUCK!!

The best help I can recommend is this book. It gets right to the point and tells you exactly how to understand and quickly answer the Reading section questions without taking a long time reading the passages and it gives very specific instructions for how to take notes and answer the Speaking section questions. You might also find the sections on Listening and Writing helpful as well. Good luck!

There is an application on Android

You also can use TOEFL volume 1 and 2, each contains 5 practice tests

That is an important question! The answer to it and to many more questions that will make it easy to score a 30 on your TOEFL iBT Writing Section can be found in this book:

Good Luck!!

Having been a TOEFL iBT tutor for over 13 years, I find there is one main reason for this: trying to write the "perfect" essay. You can overcome this problem by realizing that this essay is not as important as you might think. In other words, you will not be awarded the Pulitzer for your essay, nor will you have any university calling you and offering a full scholarship for how life changing your essay is. Another thing that helps is knowing that you actually start with a score of "5" on your essay and simply need to maintain that score. You do this by following the RUBRIC. In fact, your high score on the entire Writing section hinges on your following of the RUBRIC.

For a simplified version of the RUBRIC and more information on how to easily earn a score of 30 on the TOEFL Writing Section, I have found this book really helps:

Hello, I've been practicing reading and listening with an app called "TOEFL Practice Test", from Learn to Success, you can find it on Google Play Store (hopefully you have an Android phone haha). Select take a test and then reading test, there you have a lot of passages. You can download it here: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=minh095.vocabulary.toeflpractice

I followed the pinned post in this sub. I first gave a mock test and found my weak points - which were speaking, writing. Then, I prepared for about a month on these. I used ToeflResource, ToeflBank and Grammarly for writing. For speaking I used TOEFL SPEAKING android app. I will explain more once I get my scores. I didn't feel comfortable in giving advice without first making sure that I was successful.
