You need to know that TOEFL Writing has two parts: Integrated Writing and Writing for an Academic Discussion.
For Integrated Writing (IW): The writing prompt includes reading passages and listening portions (the user will send the script). The user reads a brief text of at least 230–300 words on a general or academic topic before listening to a lecture segment on the same subject. The user then summarizes what was stated in the lecture and how it supports or weakens the concept of the reading passage in an essay prompt.
For Writing for an Academic Discussion (WAD): The question simulates a discussion board on a university website. Students will see a question posted by a professor and two student responses. The student’s task is to read everything and then write their response.

Rubrics for IW:

5 Points (Full Mark): A response that successfully identifies important information from the lecture and presents it coherently and accurately in relation to the reading. The response is well organized, and minor language errors do not impede clarity or the connection of ideas.
4 Points: A generally good response that selects important information and presents it coherently and accurately but may have minor omissions, inaccuracies, vagueness, or imprecise connections. Slight language errors are acceptable if they do not significantly affect clarity.
3 Points: Contains some important information from the lecture and relevant connections to the reading but may be vague, incomplete, or contain inaccuracies. Errors in language may cause some confusion.
2 Points: Contains some relevant information but significant language difficulties or omissions that impair understanding. Major misrepresentations or omissions of key points are common.
1 Point: Little or no relevant content, with severe language issues that prevent understanding.
0 Point: Copying from the reading, rejecting the topic, writing in a foreign language, or blank.

5 Points: Fully successful, clearly expressed, relevant contribution with excellent language use, minimal errors, and detailed explanations.
4 Points: Generally successful, relevant, understandable, with good language, few errors.
3 Points: Partially successful, mostly relevant, some facility in language, some errors.
2 Points: Mostly unsuccessful, limited relevance or clarity, many language errors.
1 Point: Ineffective, incoherent, or minimal language, little relevance.
0 Point: Blank, off-topic, not in English, or copied.
