I notice that Pearson administers both the NAPLEX and FPGEE exams for the National Association of Boards of Pharmacy. I’m curious if they might try to leverage that relationship as the NABP convenes a task force to determine if the TOEFL is still suitable for the purpose of judging the English fluency of foreign-trained pharmacists.

Metages, I’m so happy to share my Toefl grade. I took the test on November 1 which is All Saints’ Day here in Hungary a national holiday to remember deceased loved ones. I received my score on November 7 and am only sharing it with you today. I’m really excited about my result!

In Hungary, All Saints' Day (Mindenszentek) is a national holiday on November 1st focused on remembering the deceased, though its religious origin is honoring all Christian saints. It is a day for visiting cemeteries, decorating graves with flowers and candles, and reflecting on loved ones who have passed away.

Officials at the University of Oxford have posted the following note on the school’s website:

“Changes to the TOEFL iBT test are being introduced on 21 January 2026. The University will not accept TOEFL tests taken from that date to meet the English language condition until a review of the revised test has been completed.”

It has not been decided when the review will be completed.
