TOEFL

Test Of English as a Foreign Language. Pronounced like `toeful,' a word that, if it existed, would presumably mean replete with toe or toes. It would be an apt term to describe a mouth that had a foot stuck in it. TOEFL, as well the score a test-taker obtains on it, is much less informative. Administered by ETS. What did you expect?

Overall score, originally in the range 200 to 677, was 10 average of three section scores (20 to 68). They couldn't pick a system that didn't require roundoffs? No, they had to make it complicated. 660 is at the top percentile, top quartile is about 570, median is about 520. The graduate admissions office at Notre Dame interprets the range 535-600 as ``questionable ability.''

But wait! It gets worse. A computer-based test was introduced, with scores in the range 0 to 300. (Lowest score zero: what a clever innovation!) In order ``to avoid confusion'' (no thanks, really -- you've done enough), the scores on the paper-based test have been adjusted: scores between 200 and 310 on the old scale have been collaped up to 310 (fewer fine gradations between horrible and terrible). Since scores above 310 are not scaled, those higher scales still represent the same level of English incompetence they represented previously.

Some conversions:

Paper-based score Computer-based score

677 300

650 280

600 250

550 213

533 200

500 173

You could get a better idea of a student's English competence in a one-minute conversation, but that wouldn't be standardized. (Then again, see the FMSS entry.)

Y'know, the toeful/toefl thing reminds me: a way to distinguish many Austrian surnames from German ones is that if they end in a consonant followed by el where you would expect a consonant followed by ee followed by el in ordinary German spelling, then it's Austrian (z.B.: Vogl in sterreich; Vogel in Deutschland). This rule is a lot more accurate than the TOEFL's.
