Long and Short Reading Sections
TOEFL will either give you one hour to answer three reading passages or 1 hour and 40 minutes to answer 5 reading passages. If you have 5 passages, you are only graded on three of them, but you don’t know which three. The other two passages are experimental passages that allow TOEFL to see if the questions are good TOEFL questions or not. If you get a long Reading Section (5 passages) then you will not have a long Listening Section. Strictly English suggests being prepared for a long Reading Section. That way, you’ll be able prepared for one if you get it. One way to prepare for a long reading is to read at homefor 1 hour and 40 minutes without stopping.
