Hi Freeman, what university do you want to study at? What are the requirements (do they require you to take the TOEFL?) If you want to take an exam that you will pass for sure -- go for the TOEIC because you can't fail it.

Hi Freeman, for a description of the TOEFL you can take a look at this:
http://www.english-test.net/articles/65/index.html

The TOEFL contains very specific language questions which makes it easier to prepare for it than for the IELTS. There are more preparation materials available for the TOEFL than for the IELTS, the TOEFL is more widely recognized that than the IELTS and the TOEFL is computer based with makes the registration process much easier for you. So, if you want my opinion, go for the TOEFL. You can start by learning the most frequently TOEFL vocabulary words here:
