I am a RN here in the Philippines and i want to pursue my career in California. Aside from NCLEX, TOEFL is one of the major requirements in California for me to be a RN there. I just want to know if it is hard to pass the test? Do I have to attend a review class for that or could i just do a self-review?

My wife took the TOEFL, Test of Written English (TWE), and Test of Spoken English (TSE) some years back. It's not particularly difficult since you get a really good English foundation from the Philippine education system.
What you need to be aware of, like any standardized exam, are the testing conditions you'll be under and what I like to call The College Board's English. That is, their English standard is probably closer to what you learned in class, as opposed to what you find on TV.
My wife passed on her first try, using self-review material. If you need a classroom setting to get you ready, go ahead. And good luck!

Depends what score you need. It's not a pass/fail exam--you will always get a score, the only question is whether the score you get is good enough for whatever you need it for. The test format takes some getting used to, so do practice, preferably on a computer. You might as well get as good a score as you can. Read and watch tv/listen to the radio in English. Write and speak in English. Good luck!

If you have 6-8 years of experience with english it must be a piece of cake

I personally thought it was a joke. Get a few past papers and see how you find those. I think the best way to study for it is just doing past papers, because your english looks pretty good!
