New TOEFL iBT Writing section adopts a concise, non-adaptive format focused on real academic and campus communication. Instead of two extended tasks, Writing now consists of 12 short, targeted prompts completed in about 23 minutes. You will see three task families: “Build a Sentence” (produce a well-formed sentence from a guided cue), “Write an Email” (compose a brief, purpose-driven campus message with appropriate tone and structure), and “Writing for an Academic Discussion” (submit a compact forum-style response that states and supports a position). Items emphasize clarity, control, and fit-for-purpose language rather than length. Scores appear on a simple 1–6 band scale in 0.5 steps, and the Writing band contributes to the overall TOEFL iBT score display.
