This review is from: McGraw-Hill's Conquering The TOEFL Listening Section for Your iPod (MP3 CD)

Listening can be the toughest part of the TOEFL to crack. This is because, unlike reading, you can't see it and you can't go back; all depends on taking good notes while recognizing the words and forms of academic discourse, as well as idiomatic expressions. Copy these exercises to your iPod and you can access them at any time and check your answers to see how you are improving. But with the Academic Lectures, each about 3 to 4 minutes long, it is essential to take notes so this isn't so much 'on-the-go' as the other exercises. I believe this is an excellent preparation for mastering the test.
