TOEFL-test

I just finished this horrifying test! Has anyone else done it? What do you need to pass? I am kind of worried >.<

What are you worried about?   Your english may not be perfect, but it's at a very high level, I can assure you.

Thx, but it so.. strange... It was this part where you heard a conversation about how animals that needs oxygen manage to stay under water, or hunt under water. Then you have 15 seconds to prepare an sum up the whole conversation, and speak for a minute. And a minute is a looong time if you doesn't know what you're talking about. And reading test about the univers and global warming and other stuff which I suck at >.< Oh, well.. I hope I passed

I can think of a lot of native speakers who wouldn't do well on a test with those topics.

I did a Japanese "toefl" test - second level - was sure I failed, but actually passed.  You'll see.  The same thing will happen to you!

A lot of the colleges I was applying to back when I was applying wanted a TOEFL in a foreign language; I found the whole process exceptionally and needlessly nerve-wracking, and I ended up just using an SAT subject test in Spanish for my applications.  Maybe you should look into that?  It seemed much easier to me.
