Calculate IELTS overall band from section scores and convert to TOEFL.
The overall band is the mean of four sections rounded to the nearest half, so an average of 7.25 becomes 7.5 while 7.125 becomes 7. Many institutions also set minimum section requirements. Meeting the overall band while falling below a section minimum still fails the requirement, which is why the weakest section usually determines where to focus.
