Abstract
TOEFL test was developed by Educational Testing Services (ETS) for academic purposes, and the non-native speakers of English were targeted. They can apply to many universities in the world with the scores they get from this exam. It consists of four sections: reading, listening, speaking, writing. As being one of the two productive skills, writing has some challenging dimensions in this test. Even though people may have improved their English to advanced levels, they still need extra studies and help in writing in this test. There are some difficulties of learning to write academically in this test, and the test-takers complain about some points. This study was conducted to draw attention to the points from which the test-takers suffer. 10 participants answered the questionnaire, and 3 of them were interviewed. These people participated in TOEFL courses of 50 hours during 6 weeks in Tishk International University.
