Other Exams
You might want to consider other exams like IELTS, TOEFL or ITEP that might be acceptable for the purpose you have in mind. Most universities accept multiple exams and the ITEP exam is definitely experiencing major development across Asia due to the very restrictive policies of other editors.
Have you considered the ITEP Exam?
We advise students prevented from doing Linguaskill to enroll in the ITEP exam, which is a direct competitor of the TOEFL and the 4 skills Linguaskill. ITEP is a fairly new exam promoted by ITEP International in the USA. The exam is growing fast in Asia, and particularly in emerging countries with low access to standard certifications, like Vietnam, China and Uzbekistan. The version of ITEP we sell is "ITEP Accademic Plus" which is mostly used for admissions to University Programs. It is a four skills exam that lasts about 2 hours and is distance supervised via a lockdown browser and ITEP's own proprietary supervision system.
