How is the TOEIC® test scored?
Scores on the TOEIC® test are determined by the number of correct answers. The number of correct responses on each section is converted to a scaled score. Three TOEIC® scaled scores are given for each examinee: a Listening section sub score, a Reading section sub score, and a Total score that consists of the sum of the Listening section and Reading section sub scores. Each sub score can range from 5 to 495. The Total score hence ranges from 10 to 990. The statistical procedures used to convert scores to a common scale ensure that similar TOEIC® scores indicate similar levels of English proficiency.
