TOEFL

If somebody wants to study at a university in the United States he should take the TOEFL exam. The reason to do this exam is that the university needs to know the ability of international students in English. However, to study in SIU we should have 520 in the TOEFL exam, which is difficult for some students, even though they have enough information in English, because they have to answer 150 questions in two hours. Moreover, some people cannot answer those questions on time, because the ability is different between people. In fact, when someone studies at university he will not need to know everything in grammar. Moreover, he can take a long time with answering questions. The TOEFL exam is good to know the level for students, but SIU should get another long exam with the TOEFL. In addition, they have to use both of them to know the ability of students. Finally, TOEFL is the first English exam in the world, and we have to pass it.
