Advice on TOEFL® IBT ... Kaplan 2009 edition.

[Leinahtan]

DEAR ALL,

I am new to this site, joined today.

I have my TOEFL IBT EXAM in a month's time.
I BOUGHT TOEFL IBT .. KAPLAN with 2CD's 2009 EDITION.

Do you all think, that this book and the cd's will be helpful for my preparation.
I dont think i need coaching,becasue i have been studying from grade 4 in dbai, in a British Curriculam school. Did if the coaching is helpful would do it.

One more thing, as i was reading the Kaplan book, int he reading section the NOT/EXCEPT questions section is quite tricky. So do you all something like this would come or how.

Thanking you
Leinahtan

Hi Leinahta !

I do not have a Kaplan book. But I have a Longman, Barron and Official guide of ETS book. Also did spend a little time on them. I found out it is very helpful on reading and listening section. But in Writing and Speaking, a coach (at the beginning) may be helpful in saving your time wondering if you are answering it in a right way. There are quite a lot of Writing and Speaking questions in Longman book but the instruction on how to answer some integrated test there is a little bit different comparing with it is in ETS book. Just some recommendation if you want to choose some other books

Hope that you will be doing well with your Kaplan book.
