The course begins by requiring test takers to take an entire TOEFL examination called the "Pre-test Station". This examination is followed by another section entitled "Evaluation Station", which requires participants to take further sections of the examination. Both of these steps are required for the test taker to reach the heart of the program. While some people might become impatient with these steps, they are required to help the program asses problem areas. One reservation is that the test is not timed as in an actual TOEFL test. This is a rather minor point, as students can time themselves.
