Hey guys,

I’m completely new to TOEFL and don’t really know where to start.

For IELTS UKVI Academic, I only prepared for around 2 weeks and got an overall 7.5 band score. Most of my prep was just following a YouTube channel and practicing from their videos.

Now I need to take TOEFL, and I only have around 3 weeks left before the test.

I wanted to ask people here:

* What are the BEST TOEFL resources?

* Which YouTube channel is the most helpful for learning the format and strategies?

* Where should I practice Reading / Listening / Speaking / Writing?

* Which mock tests are actually close to the real exam?

* If you only had 3 weeks, what would you focus on?

Also, based on a 7.5 IELTS Academic score, what TOEFL score range do you think is realistic with proper prep?

Would appreciate any advice/resources/study plans a lot 🙏

So in the website it was 19 of may, but in the application gateway part when I clicked on to whom it may concern letter it says this

the mentioned applicant has been applied to Qatar University seeking admission for Fall 2026 semester.

The final decision for admission to Qatar University for the mentioned term will be announced in

04/08/2026. Admission at Qatar University is based on announced admission criteria and is extremely

competitive

So i think 4th of Aug

EDIT: Check ur application gateway and to whom it may concern letter and if it was different just comment

Hi everyone, I had a few questions about admissions for international students in Turkey, especially for top universities like ITU, METU, Istanbul University, Cerrahpaşa, etc.

1. Does nationality matter in admissions? I’m from a South Asian country, and I noticed that while there are students from my country studying in Turkey, there are very few (sometimes only 1–2 people in 10 years, or 0 students in some) in top universities like Istanbul Technical University (ITU) or Middle East Technical University (METU).

For example, I often see people saying Computer Engineering in top Turkish universities usually requires around a 1500 SAT score. My score is lower (1430 SAT with 750 Math) and 99.62 avg, so I’m wondering:

• Do universities consider nationality/student quotas?
• If a country has fewer applicants/students, can that slightly improve chances?
• Or are admissions almost completely score-based?

1. Does graduating from a Turkish Maarif Foundation school help? I studied at a school connected to the Turkish Maarif Foundation (Türkiye Maarif Vakfı). Since the foundation is closely connected with Turkey and operates Turkish schools abroad, I was wondering:

• Does being a graduate of a Maarif school help in university admissions?
• Do Turkish universities recognize or value that background in any way?
• Could it give even a small advantage compared to other international applicants?

1. Question about TR-YÖS scores I also noticed something interesting. People often say Istanbul University and Cerrahpaşa usually require around 450+ on the TR-YÖS exam, but one of my classmates got admitted with around 430 while having a high school average of about 90%.

Do universities sometimes place more importance on school background than TR-YÖS and SATscores? Or could there be other factors involved?

I’d really appreciate answers from current international students or anyone familiar with the admissions system. Thanks!
