Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the effects of the narrative vs.expository texts on the TOEFL test-takers’ scores. To this end, the data were obtained and gathered from students of Shaheed Rajaee University who were studying English as a foreign language, having the same background knowledge, including both males and females. The data seem to indicate that there is no significant difference in the scores gained by students on a standard TOEFL test between expository texts and narrative texts.
