Hi,

Today I finally received my Toefl Score; I got a 110/120. (Reading 29/30, Listening 30/30, Speaking 24/30, Writing 27/30). Should I retake the exam? My preparation consisted on ETS material, and watching some videos on YouTube; it took me three days to study. I only had this short time to study, because I needed to send the scores. I knew my worst section was going to be speaking, I got really nervous and even though I can handle a conversation, talking to a computer is very different than talking to an actual person. Any recommendations are welcome,

Thanks,

Reynaldo

I don't see any reason to. TOEFL is a pass/fail and it does not add value to get 119 out of 120 vs 110.

You pass the minimum required by all schools: toefl-score-requirements-for-most-popular-schools-80110.html

Why ratake? (besides proving that you can do better of course but I don't think you need to - really good already)

I believe only Haas requires 110 TOEFL. All the other schools will be happy with 100-105
