TOEFL TestReady

TOEFL TestReady is a personalized preparation portal for the TOEFL iBT, built for candidates who want a free starting point and a way to direct their practice. Its combination of a full-length scored practice test and targeted feedback is useful; its focus on one exam and web-based use makes it a poor fit for other tests or offline study.

Overview

The free account gives candidates a baseline with a full-length practice test, AI-powered scoring, feedback across all four sections, and personalized Speaking and Writing tips. A study plan based on five survey answers helps track progress and focus on skills to improve, while a rotating daily activity offers practice drawn from the four sections. Together, these provide structure without an upfront purchase, though repeated full-test practice comes through separate paid options.

Section practice returns immediate scores and feedback, including Speaking insights on speech rate, rhythm, pronunciation, and grammar. TOEFL Practice Online mock tests use authentic questions and provide scores and performance feedback within 24 hours. The faster section-level response is better suited to focused revision; the full mocks offer a broader exam practice experience.

Key features

• Personalized study plan: Five survey answers shape an interactive plan that tracks progress and identifies skills to work on. It can give beginners direction and help score improvers target their effort.
• Daily activity: A rotating activity from the four test sections provides a small, varied practice option between longer sessions.
• Section feedback: Immediate scores and detailed Speaking indicators make it easier to identify specific areas for revision than relying on a general result alone.
• Official-question mock tests: TOEFL Practice Online uses authentic questions and returns scores and feedback within 24 hours, useful for candidates who want additional full tests.

Pricing

TestReady uses a freemium model, with no free trial. The TOEFL TestReady free account costs nothing and includes one free full-length practice test, the daily activity, and a tailored study plan. It is a strong first step, but candidates wanting more scored full tests need a paid product.

• TOEFL Practice Online: custom pricing for one full TOEFL iBT practice test with scoring; suited to a candidate seeking one additional scored mock.
• TOEFL iBT Readiness Pack: custom pricing for the Official Guide combined with a full mock test; a fit for candidates who want guide material alongside test practice.
• TOEFL Practice Online Trio: custom pricing for three full TOEFL iBT tests with scoring; useful for candidates who want several scored attempts.
• TOEFL Practice Online Six Pack: custom pricing for six full TOEFL iBT tests with scoring; the larger set suits candidates planning repeated full-test practice.
• Official TOEFL iBT Prep Course: custom pricing for self-paced lessons and activities across Reading, Listening, Speaking, and Writing, plus pre- and post-tests with score ranges. It suits learners who want a course structure in addition to practice tests.

The free account covers the core starting needs, but it does not include repeated full-length scored tests. Paid product prices are custom pricing.

Platforms

TestReady is a web-based service and requires a stable high-speed internet connection, a supported browser, and JavaScript, cookies, and local storage enabled. Requirements cover Windows, macOS, and Linux desktops, as well as iOS, iPadOS, and Android phones and tablets. It adheres to WCAG 2.2 accessibility guidelines. ETS says it uses physical, technical, organizational, and administrative safeguards to help prevent unauthorized access to or misuse of personal information.

Who it's for

TestReady suits people beginning TOEFL iBT preparation as well as candidates aiming to improve their scores. Beginners can use the free baseline test and survey-based plan to get oriented; score improvers can use immediate section feedback to focus revision. Candidates preparing for a different exam should choose a tool for that test instead.

Pros and cons

• Pro: The free full-length test includes scoring and feedback for all four sections, giving candidates a substantial starting assessment without paying.
• Pro: The study plan and daily activity add direction and regular practice beyond a single mock.
