today I appeared for real toefl exam. Please tell me one thing in the writing section I made one mistake:- in the last line of 30 minutes passage I've done one spelling mistake as I've to write "which", but I've written "awhich". Please tell me how much score ets will deduct for this mistake.

And in one speaking I've completed in 55 seconds, as there are 5 seconds left so in which I started concluding, but I'm unable to do that and in between time goes over. So in this case how much score did ets deduct.

The essay E-rater will consider awhich both gram and spelling errors since 'which' is a connector, but human grader can figure it out that this is only a spelling error. If you don't have other grammar and spelling errors, there is no problem.

For speaking, it will affect a little bit, but not too much since you have finished the main content.

Overall, if you only have those two small errors, it means you will get very good TOEFL marks.

Let us know your good news.

If there are any grammatical mistakes occur then does "awhich" affects whole score. I've written the essay in 23 minutes and take 7 minutes to recorrect it like grammar issues etc. but in english there must be a probability that grammatical issue occurs so in that case how much scores will they deduct means I wanted to know according to your prediction if you are checking an exam then how much scores did you deduct for "awhich". Please tell me asap.

The grammar errors will not affect the final scores by testbig essay E-rater if the errors are less than two. But we don't know how ETS will evaluate grammar and spelling errors exactly.

Testbig essay E-rater will check essays by following attributes , not simply by grammar or spelling errors:

No. of Grammatical Errors:
No. of Spelling Errors:
No. of Sentences:
No. of Words:
No. of Characters:
No. of Different Words:

Anyway, we don't think the error is a big issue.
