About summarization
When it comes to summarizing materials, especially on a formal test,
is it OK to list out points instead of writing them in the form of a passage or paragraph?
For TOEFL tests, especially in the writing sections, it will usually require the test takers to summarize what the speaker says, usually the points of the context, and I wonder if that could be a list of points instead of a tiny piece of article.
I appreciate your help in advance.

I suggest that since the writing sections of language proficiency tests are to test writing skills, it would be a good idea to compose well-structured paragraphs. Points can be listed in sentence form. I doubt there would be enough points in the speaker's talk to require bulleting, as it is not the purpose of such talks to provide masses of information.
