The test takes approximately 3 hours, featuring 3-4 reading passages of 600-700 words each with 12-14 questions per passage. The listening section includes lectures and conversations of 3-5 minutes each followed by 6-7 comprehension questions.

Scores range from 0-120, with most universities requiring 80-100 for undergraduate and 100+ for graduate programs. Preparation requires 6-12 weeks emphasizing academic vocabulary, note-taking, and time management. Success depends on developing test-taking strategies, practicing with authentic materials, and understanding specific demands of each section.
