Hi Davidf, welcome to our community? If you want to get more information on the TOEIC, you can read this: TOEIC Overview

It's very good that you have been helping Sumone prepare for the TOEIC. I take it she is your friend?

yeah she's a penpal friend we speak via microphone sometimes

she is doing the exam in 1 week i think but when i got her to do a few of your example tests she only scores 40% or so is that bad do u think?

i think her main problem is she rushes the questions and does not go through all the words that and i think she needs to build a better vocabulary

Hi again! How often has Sumone taken our tests? The idea is to do the exercises long enough to memorize the correct phrases/expressions/collocations. Also, have you read about the

30/30 Challenge
http://www.english-test.net/forum/ftopic10072.html?

It describes an entire learning system.
