2-0 out of 5 stars CD only for Windows!
The software does not work on Mac OS (or anything but Windows), so the value of this product was greatly diminished for Mac users.

Book is ok, though.

3-0 out of 5 stars toefl ets
the exercises in the text are very very intresting, but there are lots of useless repetitions.
for example: in all the corrections all the text they refer to is quoted once more.
it seems to me they did it just to make the book bigger! without all these
repetitions now it would be 1/3 shorter!

4-0 out of 5 stars good book
good book, but the actual exam is a lot harder and longer than the ones in the book

4-0 out of 5 stars good book
It's a good book to prepare for the toefl exam. But still you will need alot of practicing. Try to get used to the exam by practicing alot of exams on the toefl website.

4-0 out of 5 stars It's a useful book
Nobody can ignore this book because it's the only one from ETS for IBT. It's pretty good because it contains a lots of useful info for the test. But if it can put more practice tests in, it will be perfect. In addition, I am still wondering how close the sample tests in the book is to the real test. ... Read more

I'm an italian vet and I'm studying for my Toefl exam and I think that Barron's Toefl IBT is a excellent book! It is not very difficult and it provides to give you a solid english basis in order to take your Toefl exam.
To buy!

5-0 out of 5 stars Its really good book for exchange student to study TOEFL
It is very good book
Barron is the best product for TOEFL
I recommened it

5-0 out of 5 stars TOEFL is the best
hey guys I'd like to suggest you about Barron's TOEFL, it really helps you to improve your english skills.

5-0 out of 5 stars One of the best, but not THE BEST.
This book along with a CD is a very good source for those who want to practice for TOEFL in about 2 months(minimum). I used it but I have not taken the test yet. The disadvantage of this book is that it contains mostly the Academic texts. All Readings and Listening part are related to academic topics. In that order, may be Longman's is a better choice because or variety in text topics (not limited to academic). It contains 7 modeled tests which are very helpful and will significantly increase your skills and self confidence. The book is not elementary, therefore if you are looking for a elementary book with step by step explanation and many examples, you better start with Longman's. This book is for someone who is ready for the test and just need a fine tuning, though have at least 2 months ahead!

5-0 out of 5 stars I got a great score!
I took the test in March. With the help of this book my score was 106!! In my opinion it is the best preparatory option, because it contains high level tests which indeed will prepare you. If you want to get a good score I would also recommend you to buy the official book. ... Read more

As soon as I received this book, I put together a proposal to develop 40 lesson plans, using these activities as a base for the plans.It made me look good and my boss gave me a promotion and a $2/hour raise in pay.(It may sound a bit unbelievable, but it's absolutely true!).Students really appreciate these lessons too.I highly recommend this valuable resource!

5-0 out of 5 stars A review on the 400 Must-Hav Words for the TOEFL
This book does offer a nice variety of academic vocabulary. The fact that it is not only organized by academic discipline, but also by theme is a real bonus since iBT TOEFL draws topics from various disciplines. It also provides grammar and usage in the context of a text. This allows the learner to experience the "target words" in context. It's well done.

2-0 out of 5 stars Big book, no depth
I am an ESL teacher and I teach courses in TOEFL preparation. In my opinion, most of the sections of this book do not accurately represent TOEFL test questions. The authors do not seem to have had an in-depth understanding of the writing and speaking scoring rubric, or an understanding of how the listening and reading questions are composed. I do not recommend this book to anyone planning to take the TOEFL test.

First, in the reading section, while their are many good examples of academic text, the actual questions and answer choices in the book are not composed the same way as the real TOEFL questions. Therefore, a student using these questions to practice is often practicing skills that are not tested on the real test, or is wasting time trying to answer questions that would never be asked on a TOEFL test. Worse, in many cases the answer choices do not contain a clear, correct answer, regardless of what the answer key claims. In some cases, the answer choices are too vague or, I believe, simply incorrect. Also, the authors have divided up the section into the different types of questions that can be asked, but with little rhyme or reason, as they have lumped questions into the inference section which are clearly not inference questions (and not considered inference questions by the test makers), and ignored some other types of questions.

The listening section is slightly better, but the book does not come with the listening CD's, so the student will not be able to use this section. Nevertheless, there are quite a few places in the listening where the questions do not accurately represent TOEFL questions, although to the inexperienced eye the format appears similar.

The speaking section is quite sparse and offers little useful advice to the student. There are no samples available on CD of how different score levels will sound.

I did not use the writing section at all, so cannot comment on the exercises there, but the explanation of the scoring rubric and the sample papers shown in the book do not reflect an understanding of how TOEFL papers are actually scored. You will find much better samples that give a much more accurate idea of what a high or low scoring essay looks like in the book published by ETS.

Finally, the book is loaded up with "supporting skills" exercises, which seems like a good idea, except that often the skills practiced will not be found on the actual test. Moreover, the questions and answer choices in the exercises are so carelessly done that there are many instances of answers which don't make sense, choices that are too similar and too vague, and questions which don't use the skill one is supposedly practicing.

And one more thing - the book is overly large and not at all user friendly.It's hard to find anything in it, and sometimes the exercises that go with certain materials are located at the end of the unit instead of directly after the material.

One of the few good things about this book is the ETS scoring rubrics and scoring instructions provided in the front of the book, which allow you to figure out your TOEFL score. Also, it is useful to have actual computerized practice tests that reflect the testing conditions and can give the student practice with the real test format.

Other than that, I really don't like this book and would never willingly use it again for a TOEFL class.

3-0 out of 5 stars I cannot recommend all of staffs.
It is well-organized.

Beginning practice is excessively useful. Also, Listening, Speaking, and Writing practice are helpful.(If you wanna practice Listening, you have to buy extra audio CDs... but it surely is helpful. It contains different types of accent such as British, Australian.)

However, as for reading practice, I cannot recommend this 'cause it's totally different from real the iBT TOEFL test. I cannot accept this book's practice style.

In conclusion, people who want to improve;
1) Listening
2) Speaking
3) Writing(including Grammer practice)

this book helps you.

5-0 out of 5 stars the perfect READING and LISTENING prep
This book really helps you develop skills and specific ways
of studying and expressing yourself literally.It even helps in expanding your awareness. Really helpful,really nice.Really tidy step-by-step guide,
makes me feel secure I got the tools for success.Just one other thing--
the CD is good,listening practices are perfect and everything,but I got a virus from it,from the .exe file on my PC so I decided not to use the send-your-response-to-a-teacher feature .And there is no other way you can measure your speaking and writing skills before you go to TOEFL.

3-0 out of 5 stars listening practices
This is a pretty good book, I would say (although, I can't compare it with other ones). The book has 4 sections for each of the testsections. Each section has tiny steps and explains everything. After each step you take a small test to see if you understood everything. I got bored with all the explanations and examples, so I only did the tests and reviewed the sections, where I had problems.
It comes with a CD-Rom, which is very good, because you can practice either the computer test or the written Test. The only problem is the listening section is not on the CD-Rom. You have to buy it extra on CDs (which I couldn't find and actually don't want to spend extra money for). So if you have big troubles understanding spoken English, you'll have to get an extra training book. That is the big minus when buying this product. Everything else is great.

3-0 out of 5 stars quite good BUT
Listening section does not contain Audio CD, why are not these excersises on the CDROM?! The attached CDROM has less than 300MB and typical cdrom can contain more than 600MB!!!
The Structure section does not contain enough exercises. Some parts are easy for me and I need just 4-5 sentences to see if I understand the problem. Others are more tricky and they contain only 8 examples?! I am taking the test in four weeks, so I will see how much helpful the book was.

4-0 out of 5 stars JK
Although the quality of the exercises is comparable to the real exam, the total study/practice package is lacking in that it does not simulate the real test environment. Additionally, selling the CDs and practice book separately is quite inconvenient for the buyer and an unfortunate oversight on the part of the publisher, which should consider a more realistic simulation of the real test in preparing practice/learning tools.

4-0 out of 5 stars A good book but don't forget order your CD
I bought this book because my friends told me this one is the top preparation book for TOEFL test. Yes, it's pretty good in organization. The only problem is that it's not sold together with CD so that when I place order, I forgot to order CDs with the book. In addition, because IBT is based on Internet that require a computerized platform, the biggest disadvantage of this book is that it didn't simulate the true enviroment of test. So you should consider to buy another one to practice test.

5-0 out of 5 stars A must have book for TOEFL iBT
This book and CDs is the only one you will need to score in TOEFL iBT. I have used Kaplan, Longman, Princeton but Delta stands out. Though this is a bit expensive it is worth the price. You will get the real benefit of this book with the CDs.

5-0 out of 5 stars Good book for TOEFL
I bought this book for my mother as she is taking TOEFL class.She told me that this is a very good source for her studying.

5-0 out of 5 stars It helps you a lot!
This book seems to be an old book, published in March, 2005.

However, this provides really awesome contents. It provides general but useful strategies of each section.

In spite of being a student, I already five iBT books. I felt this is really helpful, esp. listening section. This is because talking speed is almost same as real iBT test. Other books... sorry, not fast.

'course, this book does not include Audio CDs. If you want to practice listening section, you should pay little bit more. It is worthy of buying.

I guarantee that if you complete this book, you might be able to get more than 61 for beginner, more than 79-80 for people who are familiar with iBTTOEFL test. ... Read more

Getting a good score in Toefl iBT is all about practice. These 10 CDs have a lot of exercisesto get you better. I was weak in speaking and writing. I had to get a minimum score of 26 in speaking and 24 in writing. The first time i attended a 2 week training classes and used a number of books and i only got 89. Then i bought this book and CDs and all i used was this one. I got a score of 108. Though it is expensive, I would certainly recommand this book and CDs.

5-0 out of 5 stars Delta's TOEFL Audio CD's
As I did not hear these CD's, but were sent to an English Major in eastern Europe, I will go by her outstanding ratings.They are a perfect match for the Delta's workbook; the CD's were specifically asked for because of the high rating. Since purchasing these CD's, I continually hear this student's high praise for them. ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars good book and CD set
If you use this book and its CD you will pass TOEFLibt with high score. That is why now I am selling this book. I don't need it anymore.

5-0 out of 5 stars Mastering Skills for the TOEFL iBT: Advanced
I am a foreign graduated pharmacist who is suffering with the TOEFL ibt. I have a lot of TOEFL books to prepare for the test ( ETS, Kaplan, Barrons..) but they seem easier than a real test for me. This book is different from them because of its clear explanations and advanced level exercises. I got a lot of new useful information which I hope helps me to pass the TOEFL. I am happy with this purchase.
I wish this book was included the CDs because to buy the book and the CDs is not cheap.

5-0 out of 5 stars It Is Awesome. Highly recommend this book!
This book is not so famous now, and I did not know about this company and the book.

It was risky to buy this for me, yet after opening book, I was so impressed.
Amazingly, it is lucid.

This company emphasizes reading and writing skills. This book is outlined very carefully and coherently.

Of course, like other iBT books, it does not include AudioCDs, so if you want to practice listening section, you should buy CDs which cost $40.

Anyway, it will help you. Very organized method leads you successful person! ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars TOEFL Books Summary
I've taken the TOEFL CBT, and got a reasonable grade of 283. Here are the book I've used, from the most important to the least one, and what I did with each one, based on other readers' reviews:
1. CliffsTestPrep TOEFL CBT:
Excellent structure section. Good Reading strategies - but for the structure part (word forms) rather then for the Reading part of the test!
It's also one of the cheapest books available.
2. Cambridge Preparation For The TOEFL Test:
Great Reading and Writing sections.
3. Kaplan's TOEFL Paper-And-Pencil, Third Edition:
A fine Listening section.
4. ETS TOEFL Test Preparation Kit, 2nd Edition:
A lot of exercises at the appropriate difficulty level (from the creators of the test themselves). However, it has only PBT test, and NOT CBT.
I hardly used this one at all.
The only book you need is CliffsTestPrep, which really helps you with the structure part, and, if you insist, the Cambridge's book for the essays, either.
Also, download the TOEFL PowerPrep software (a computerized demo test, available for free download at the TOEFL official web site, including all the tutorials you'll see in the actual test), and the list of available writing topics in the official pool from the same site, and practice them whenever you're doing a test, in-order to increase the chance that you would be given a topic you've already been written on.
You should also look for a document called 'Toefl Essay Writing Tips' - it has a lot of good (how surprising) tips to write the essay, including a comprehensive division of the essay types, and what should you do in each one.

That's it - you're ready!

Good luck!

4-0 out of 5 stars GREAT BOOK
This book was very helpful to me when I had to prepare for the TOEFL test, the only thing that this book needs is some CBT practice tests.

4-0 out of 5 stars The best book available
The exercises have a tougher level than the test but if you are serious about TOEFL, you'll find that it has very few exercises.

5-0 out of 5 stars A good practice tests book to work for TOEFL
This book was helpful for practice. It has a lot of exercises that let you get closer to the high score of TOEFL. As the saying goes "Practice makes it perfect".

4-0 out of 5 stars Helpful Book!
By the time I bought this book, I already use Barron's TOEFL Preparation book. I bought it just to make comparison, perhaps there are something that are not covered by Barron's. In the end I find that in short ammount of time, I couldn't read and memorize all the patterns explain in Barron's. So about one or more weeks before the test I switch to this book.

This book is quite simple. The writer give you a brief explanation on how to attack some questions, then give you some exercises on how to do it. I like the vocabulary exercise. Although they're not part of the test, but it helps me alot in reading comprehension.

In the end, this book... is helpful enough for you who are already advanced in English. But the questions on structure in my humble opinion is quite easy. I correctly answers, almost all of the structure questions., eventhough I am not an advanced English user. ... Read more
