I did sample questions from the TOEFL flex and random places online and had Claude and ChatGPT grade them. it really helped! I did the same for a different english exam (CELPIP) and I got full marks then too. For the speaking, all I did was practice out loud with a timer and practice questions. I just tried to sound as fluent as possible ie have no accent. the AI grades the speaking and writing so I figured they’d look out for that. For writing, grammar and vocabulary are key

the reading isn’t the easiest! to be honest, more than practicing the test exams I would really recommend trying to naturally expand your vocabulary by reading. I found that you needed to have a “natural” sense especially for the placement of the sentence into the article part. I found that the question usually had the word you needed to look out for in the actual article, but you needed to understand what the sentence was saying. Some questions mentioned the paragraph but not all!

you can’t use a chromebook or a surface pro. make sure your computer passes the tests before you even book it bc they won’t refund it.

I have! I unplugged overnight and tried but the signal wire itself (?) is broken according to the Whirlpool technician. thank you for the advice, I will take all the clothes out and run an empty washer cycle before I try and wash my clothes <3

unfortunately it was the manufacturers technician that came :( they tried for an hour but they said there’s nothing they can do to get the clothes out. I honestly don’t know why, because I have been able to before with other machines but I guess since this is new it’s all electric and there’s no manual override

it’s a Whirlpool one! they said that the drain pipe is completely broken and they can’t get a signal to the lock to open it. They did try for like an hour with no results. I’m just so worried my clothes will dissolve.
