Scores on the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL), achieved by 67 Asian graduate students seeking the Master of Science in engineering, were examined in relationship to scores on the Graduate Record Examination (GRE) and success in completing their program of study as measured by final grade point average. Significant correlations (p < .01) were obtained between TOEFL and GRE Verbal (r = .63), GRE Quantitative (r = .30), and GRE Analytical (r = .35) scores. The best predictor of success in graduate study was the Quantitative score from the GRE (r = .32,p < .01).
