    What is Duolingo English Test?

    The Duolingo English Test (DET) is an online English proficiency test developed by Duolingo. The test is online and uses interactive exercises to measure comprehension, vocabulary, grammar, fluency, and pronunciation.

    The exam is in an adaptive computer-based testing format. That is, the difficulty of the questions and exercises depends on how well you do on the test.

    The DET is taken online from home. To take the exam, you will need a computer with a working microphone and speakers, a webcam, an internet connection, and an ID card. The testing process takes less than an hour. Results are certified within two days. Once the exam is completed, an official certificate with the results is provided. Scoring is done on a scale of 10 to 160. DET results are valid for two years.

    There are more than 17 different question types and formats available in the Duolingo English Test. Here are some of them:
