Where this comes from
Every ÖSYM row on this page is taken directly from ÖSYM's Uluslararası Yabancı Dil Sınavları Eşdeğerlikleri Dokümanı (güncelleme tarihi 11.03.2025), fetched from ÖSYM's own document server. The new-scale TOEFL band table is taken directly from ETS's own research report, "A banded score scale for the TOEFL iBT test" (April 2026), cross-checked against ETS's public score-comparison page. Nothing here is estimated beyond simple straight-line interpolation between two official figures on the same exam's own table, and every interpolated or banded result is labelled as such.

About the new TOEFL band scale
ETS introduced a new 1–6 banded scale for TOEFL iBT on 21 January 2026. ETS itself (not ÖSYM) publishes the old-scale score each band corresponds to, as a minimum, not a single point — "this band means an old-scale score of at least this number," the same way Cambridge's letter grades work below. Converting a new-scale band therefore happens in two real steps: band → its ETS-published old-scale floor, then that floor → YDS on ÖSYM's own table.
What about IELTS?
IELTS was removed from ÖSYM's equivalency table in 2014 and has no YDS equivalent at all today — not an unsupported case, genuinely not accepted. If your purpose requires a YDS-recognised score, IELTS won't satisfy it regardless of the band you achieve.
One number, three different meanings
"Equivalent to YDS" means different things depending on why you need the score: for academic purposes (admissions, academic promotion) ÖSYM's table applies directly; for the language allowance (dil tazminatı) no international exam qualifies at all, only YDS, e-YDS, YÖKDİL or e-YÖKDİL; for a university's own prep-exemption exam, each university's senate decides independently of ÖSYM's document. Check which purpose applies to you before relying on a converted score.
Frequently asked questions
Is this an official ÖSYM tool?
No. This is an independent tool built on ÖSYM's published document, run by LingoPath, a private tutoring platform with no affiliation to ÖSYM, ETS, Cambridge, Oxford or any exam board. Always confirm a score that matters against ÖSYM's own document before acting on it.
Which exams can I convert between?
TOEFL iBT (both the old 0–120 scale and the new 1–6 band scale), PTE Academic, Cambridge Linguaskill General, Oxford Test of English, Oxford Test of English Advanced, Cambridge C1 Advanced, Cambridge C2 Proficiency, and YDS/e-YDS itself.
Does this work for the new TOEFL (1–6 scale)?
Yes. ETS publishes its own old↔new conversion table, so a new-scale band converts through its ETS-published old-scale floor and then through ÖSYM's table to YDS. Because ETS's table gives a minimum old-scale score per band rather than one exact point, the result is always a floor, not a precise single number — the tool marks this clearly.
How accurate is a score between two table rows?
Straight-line interpolation between the two nearest official figures on that exam's own table, clearly labelled as estimated rather than exact. ÖSYM has not published every possible score, so this is the most honest way to answer one the table doesn't list directly.
Why does Cambridge use letters (A/B/C) instead of a score?
Because that's what ÖSYM's own document publishes for Cambridge C1 Advanced and C2 Proficiency — a grade, not a numeric score. There is no official numeric Cambridge-score-to-YDS table, so this tool doesn't invent one.
Want a plan built around your actual score?
A teacher can tell you exactly what your current level means for the exam you're actually preparing for, and build a plan to close the gap.
