Hi, You can start off by doing the exercises in learnhub.Then, you can do the Barron’s passkey book. The book is available in the market at a reasonable price of 250 RS. and they provide 2 preparation cds. If you can acquire Kaplan’s toefl cd (the book is not worth the money!) then things would be very easy. Further, the TOEFL site gives u a free iBT sampler which simulates the actual test. I’d recommend u do that first.

If you have already given ur GRE, TOEFL should be a cake walk. Just dont fall asleep during the exam… :-P All the best!!

hi

i would suggest that you do a quick revision of the course and then focus on taking more and more tests;

and yes, take the last 2 days off – so that you are totally fresh when you go for the exam :)

  Hi,
  
  It all depends upon your present Verbal Skills. Generally, students who prepare for exams like GRE and GMAT finish it in one month and students who prepare only for TOEFL take 2-3 months. There are students who prepare for TOEFL in 40 days as well.
  
  All the best…
