there is a program called rosetta stone it is kinda of expensive but it is supposed to be the best in the world.
PS you are planning to take the test not give the test - the teacher/proctor gives the exam you take it
for more simple - get a video of an english show/movie that has a lot of simple dialog. turn on the closed caption and record yourself speaking the dialog of the actors. then listen to yourself back then listen to them so you can see how you sound different. and what words you need to improve on

How To Improve Language Fluency

The only thing I can suggest is what I would do, attempting to improve personal knowledge of a language: surround yourself with as much as you can. Find recordings, tapes, songs, television shows, movies, anything that utilizes that language (in your case, English) and study and practice with them.. Hope that helps, and Good luck!

By listening to native English speakers on the radio, TV and movies. Listen carefully to how they speak, this is the easiest way to improve your speaking skills. If you can find an English speaker to practice with too, that will help. Good luck! : )

The first thing you have to do is find people who speak English natively and talk with them as long as you can and as often as you can. It's evident to me, having taught English as a Second Language, that you are translating your language into English and not thinking in this language. Thinking in any language is necessary if you intend to master it. Speaking with native speakers will help you improve in all of the areas you ask about, if you will force yourself to get into their environment and to speak with them as I said, as often and as long as you can. Also, you must ask them to correct you when you make mistakes and you need to pay attention when you are corrected and do everything you can to correct your errors.

make sure your grammar is correct when talking & accent tapes work pretty well or listen to how other people here in america talk

Please don't come to Texas until after your test.
We would ruin your vocabulary chances, that is just being honest.
I appreciate that you are doing this! Very admirable!
