TOEFL iBT Score Calculator
Four section bands, averaged into the overall band ETS reports — and, for a report that still shows one, the band beside a 0–120 total.
Format checked against ETS on .
Overall band
5
The average of your four section bands, rounded to the nearest half as ETS rounds it.
How the overall band works
There is no conversion and no weighting: each section is a band from 1 to 6 in half steps, and the overall band is their average, rounded to the nearest half. That makes TOEFL unusual — with IELTS you convert raw marks to a band, and with PTE the score comes out of an algorithm you cannot reproduce by hand. Here, an average is the whole calculation.
All four are needed. An average over three sections is a claim about a test that was not finished, and printing band 1 for a section nobody sat would be a fabricated result rather than a missing one — 1 is the lowest band a candidate can be awarded, not the absence of one.
Holding a 0–120 total instead?
ETS still prints a comparable total out of 120 beside the bands, and will until January 2028. If that is the number on your report, this is the band it sits in. The ranges below are ETS’s own comparison table, and the total ETS prints for a band is the midpoint of its range.

What a calculator cannot tell you
Which questions you got wrong, and why. If you have already sat a few practice tests, the number that changes your preparation is not your total — it is that you get 82% of one question type and 41% of another. That takes a history to work out, so nothing that scores a single test can do it.
Examling keeps that history and reads it back to you, across every paper you have sat.

Questions, answered
How is the TOEFL overall band calculated?
Each of the four sections — Reading, Listening, Speaking and Writing — is reported as a band from 1 to 6 in half steps, and the overall band is the average of the four, rounded to the nearest half. There is no weighting and no conversion table.
What happened to the 0 to 120 TOEFL score?
ETS moved to the 1 to 6 band scale on 21 January 2026 and reports a comparable overall total out of 120 alongside it until January 2028. Sections are no longer scored out of 30, so a calculator that asks for four scores out of 30 is asking for numbers a current report does not contain.
