Are TOEFL Listening Section Questions Repeated?
No. TOEFL Listening Section Questions are NOT repeated. Every Question in The TOEFL Listening Section is completely new with Every Exam. This is also true with every other section of the TOEFL Exam.
There may be questions that are similar to ones that you have seen or practiced before — but trying to memorize answers to specific questions is completely useless because the chances that you would get one that you “know” is almost impossible.
That is why practicing with past TOEFL questions is almost a complete waste of time. The only thing that practicing with past TOEFL questions will be beneficial for is to get an idea of what KIND of questions are in The TOEFL Listening Section.
To be successful on The Listening Section — and ALL Sections of The TOEFL Exam — you need to know how to answer each question-TYPE. Not to memorize the answers to specific questions.
If you prepare in that way, it will not matter WHAT the question IS. You will know HOW to answer it.
And the best way to learn that is with The TOEFL Excellence Training System.
