<p>Hey, you’re right about the Stanford thing. I should do that. </p>
<p>My essays around 700-750 words. I would definitely say DON’T go past 1000. But then again, nobody’s going to check the word limit - as long as every word adds to the essay and is really interesting and doesn’t make it unnecessarily long…</p>
<p>Unnecessarily being the key word.</p>
<p>See, whatever you write about, brevity is always beneficial. If you can get something across in three words instead of ten, go for it.</p>
<p>Antone taking the TOEFL test anytime soon?
@tetris: I tried all the combinations,from light gray to grayishwhite, and finally found what The ‘color’ was.</p>
<p>Really? Where, on the other thread? Lemme go see.</p>
<p>I have to write the TOEFL sometime over the next few months.</p>
<p>Nah. I kept editing the same post until I found the right one.
The TOEFL test was reallly really boring. I barely managed to keep myself from sleeping. But in the middle of the listening section my headphones just stopped working. 
and that wasted almost 3 out of 10 minutes and I had to make a calculated guess in one of the questions.</p>
<p>But I hear that the test’s really easy, so you’re bound to get a very respectable score :)</p>
<p>Kudos on the colour!</p>
<p>ccprofile,I’ve been desperate to know what the whole speaking section is about…So,what questions are asked?Btw,I’m writing the test in August.</p>
<p> lol lol lol 10char </p>
<p>@smart: Don’t stammer,be calm and use simple english and you’re all set for the speaking section.</p>
<p>^And, yeah, use the whole allotted time also.</p>
<p>I’ll probably wind up writing it in August too. What are the dates offered here, smartchap?</p>
<p>^August 8,22,30.
But,I’m still thinking about which one of these dates to choose,because I don’t want my school exams to be affected.</p>
<p>I think I’ll take it on September 12th</p>
<p>August/September should be perfectly fine. And idk how it’s there but over here there is a lot of rush for the test during those months. So, it wouldn’t be a bad idea to register early.</p>
<p>Hmm OK, I’ll try register this week then.</p>
