TOEFL BREAK-DOWN
The TOEFL is a very long examination (almost as long as 4.5-5 hours) and tests your English abilities in various fields. They are the reading, speaking, listening and writing sections.

TOEFL was developed to address the problem of ensuring English language proficiency for non-native speakers wishing to study at U.S. universities.
