Your TOEFL Scores when studying abroad
Keep in mind that Master's degree programmes will consider other application items, such as GPA and recommendations, and you should not expect to get accepted based on your TOEFL scores alone.
Moreover, some specific Master's degrees may ask for different (higher) TOEFL scores. For example, if a course assigns presentations and writing (such as courses in the Liberal Arts or Humanities), they will probably require a higher TOEFL score. You are encouraged to check the programme page or the university page itself for a more detailed explanation of what TOEFL scores they expect.
