TOEFL and IELTS test scores are valid for two years, so it is recommended that high school students start to learn the basic language and accumulate vocabulary in addition to maintaining the transcripts of basic subjects in the school, and it is recommended that they can try to register for the first TOEFL test in the summer at the end of the first year of high school.
