What is the Study Plan behind a 935 TOEIC score?

935 TOEIC. First attempt. No prior test experience, and years without studying English. For Linh Nguyen — an IT professional who majored in French — the circumstances were far from ideal. Yet she walked out of that exam room having exceeded her own expectations. Her approach made all the difference.

Bridging the long-standing gap in English

Choosing French as her major meant that English - a vital tool for her current career - had been sidelined throughout her college years.

This was also Linh’s first time ever sitting for the TOEIC. Her primary hurdles were the Listening section, particularly Parts 3 and 4, where test-takers must process information from lengthy conversations and monologues. Furthermore, with a demanding full-time work schedule, Linh had very little time to spare for studying.

Mastering the fundamentals with Prep Edu’s Study Plan

Linh Nguyen enrolled in Prep Edu's Intermediate & Advanced TOEIC course and began rebuilding her English foundation using a personalized Study Plan. "The Study Plan helps organize theoretical lessons and vocabulary logically," she shared. Instead of guessing what to study next, she had a clear weekly roadmap, knowing exactly where she stood, what needed review, and ensuring no knowledge gaps were left behind.

"The biggest advantage of Prep Edu compared to traditional classes is the flexibility," she added. This feature could be adjusted to fit her availability, helping Linh Nguyen maintain a consistent learning habit despite her busy work week.

Every weekend, she dedicated 5–6 hours to watching concise video lessons and completing exercises immediately afterward. The specific strategy provided for each question type helped her improve both Listening and Reading skills in a short time. "The course content is concise and focused, I could finish it in under 3 months if I stayed dedicated," she noted.

With nearly a year of foundational study behind her, Linh spent the final two weeks on full mock test practice with Prep AI Test Practice. The tests were designed to mirror the actual exam format, to help students acclimate to time pressure and stamina management. What she loved most was the instant feedback: "I also loved that you get your score right after finishing." This allowed her to pinpoint her strengths and weaknesses clearly, making it easier to refine her strategy just in time for the actual test

935 Points – Exceeding expectations on the first try

On the day the results came in, Linh scored 935 (Listening: 465, Reading: 470). "I never even reached this score while practicing at home," she said. This was her first attempt, and the result far surpassed her initial goal of 900.

Currently, her 935 TOEIC certificate is a standout feature on her CV and LinkedIn profile, not only meeting her company’s requirements but also opening up broader career opportunities for the future.
