This is the last section of the test, and it will take about an hour to complete.  \nThe integrated writing task will require you to read a passage, listen to a lecture, and then write an essay that uses information from both of these sources. The independent task will be on a topic similar to the topics in speaking task \\#2—that is, it will ask you to use personal experience to explain an opinion that you have.  \nScoring  \nThe writing section is scored by two trained graders. Each will give your essays a score on a scale of 1-5. If they give you very different scores, a third grader will review the essay to decide your final score. A high-scoring essay will be well-organized, will give clear arguments and examples to support those arguments, and will include all of the important information from the given sources (on the integrated task, of course) . To get a high score, you need to have a clear main point, and everything in your essay should contribute in some way to that point. As in the speaking section, a few minor language errors are not a major problem—this section is about communicating fully, so if your errors don’t interfere with communication and are not very many, then you probably don’t have much to worry about.  \nThe Scope ","cbCaicfTb47Cd5Lb","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaicfTb47Cd5Lb","pdf",961506,45,"English","# Introduction\n# What is Magoosh TOEFL?\n# Meet the Authors\n# Writing Section Breakdown\n## Scoring\n## The Scope of Your Essays\n# The Topics You’ll Write About","[{\"question\":\"What are the two tasks in the TOEFL Writing section?\",\"answer\":\"The TOEFL Writing section includes an integrated writing task and an independent writing task.
