Dear sir or madame, [b][b]Thank you for your message about the next version of the TOEFL test. We [b]will begin to transition the new test in 2004, however we have not yet [b]determined the exact dates. I encourage you to continue to visit the TOEFL [b]website for the most up-to-date information. I am sorry that I cannot give [b]you more specific ifnormation at this time. [b][b]When a test taker asks TOEFL to send a copy of their scores to universities, [b]we send the score only for the testing date the student asked for. In other [b]words, we do not send ALL of your previous scores. We send only the scores [b]from the date you choose. Therefore, it would be in your best interest to [b]choose your highest TOEFL score for sending to a university. [b][b]Thank you again for writing to TOEFL. [b][b]Sincerely, [b][b]Eileen Tyson [b]TOEFL Program [b]Educational Testing Service [b][b]-----Original Message----- [b]From: lanlan821@sohu.com [mailto:lanlan821@sohu.com] [b]Sent: Wednesday, January 22, 2003 1:12 AM [b]To: Toeflnews [b]Subject: when will the new TOFEL exactly start in China?
