Why are test scores valid for only two years?
The TOEIC Speaking and Writing scores are valid as long as the level of English proficiency of the examinee remains the same. This proficiency can, however, improve or decline over time. For this reason, the more recent the score, the more likely it is to be a valid indication of the examinee’s proficiency. ETS Global recommends that a test score be considered valid for up to 2 years.
