Hi Shiva
TOEFL and IELTS are Tests of English as a Foreign Language widely used English proficiency exams for candidates wanting to study abroad. So, when you have a plan to move abroad for university education in an English Speaking Nation you should appear for TOEFL or IELTS to establish your proficiency in English.
Universities in the USA have preferred the TOEFL over IELTS for a long time, and if you are looking to study or immigrate to the USA, TOEFL is the better option. There are some universities that do accept IELTS scores as well, so definitely do your research beforehand. Around 9000 institutions in the world accept TOEFL scores, so do keep that in mind.
Thank You.
