Editorial Review:

Product Description:
The TOEFL (Test of English as a Foreign Language) is now being offered as an internet-based test, or iBT, and the new edition of Barron's TOEFL manual and accompanying software have been completely revised and updated to reflect the new format. The manual presents seven full-length model TOEFL iBT tests with explanations or examples for all questions, including sample essays and speaking responses. The author also offers general orientation to the new TOEFL iBT, as well as a review of academic skills, which include note taking, paraphrasing, summarizing, and synthesizing. There is also a review of language skills--listening, speaking, reading, and writing. The optional CD-ROM presents seven on-screen TOEFL iBT exams that simulate actual test conditions and provide automatic scoring.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Deceptive reading questions, very poor CD implementation
This is a review for the Barron's Toefl ibt book with a CD.
All in all, the book is good for preparation for the Toefl test, but no way I would give it a 4 stars even. It does cover all the sections in the test pretty good, but the difficulty level of this book is way higher than the actual ETS standart for TOEFL is. The reading passages are ok, but the questions are deceptive: some of them are actually a GRE-quality, which is way more difficult than TOEFL. As, for example, in one of the questions, ...

Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - The worse book ever
Don't even think about buying this book. I have wasted my time with it. There is no CD 2 and the activities always ask for it. And even worse, you can't return it because there is a return restriction for college, audio books, or any book with a CD-ROM. You will feel really disappointed with these editors.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - POOR
This CD set is useless without the Barron Book, and when you buy the book the CD set comes with it. So this CD set alone is a useless purchase.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - I did not get that book
The book did not come yet, it was supposed to be here by August 24th. I emailed you but no reply. I am very disappointed.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - Good Book but the CD sucks!
The book is good, it has very good content and exercises but the cd is really bad. It is really slow, and get stucks in some section. It is so bad, that sometimes the question simply does not appear! I recommend to use other books and practice with other CD because this one is just a lose of time.
