thanks for your explanation. I have one question about pronunciation part; if the question given a sentence that pronounce a word with contraction, for example: I'd like to be there, shall we write what we are hearing or write I would like, which is more formal.

Does the amount of listening to the audios influence the score? Does wrong answers take away a score? What if I dont know the word, shall I guess or leave it empty?

@deepfeelingsnetwork2898 4 месяца назад

Wrong answers have no impact. If you don't know a word, you can tell by the structure that it's wrong. Normally, you shouldn't select. If you're 60/40 sure then you can select but not more than 1/2.

@MohammedIsmail-ny8cb 11 месяцев назад

I worte my duolingo for the first time in my laptop and i got a certified result and i didn't get the score which i want so, i purchased again and wrote after a month practice in a computer of my friend. I wrote it for three times and I didn't get my results. Every time they only tell that our superior could not conform that you have completed written section independently. I did not break any rules or policies of the test they have given me free for the 3 attempts but they are telling me to repurchase the test to take. My experience was bad after getting the invalid results continuously.

I have taken the test and got a score of 130. If I take another test what will happen to my previous score? If I purchase the bundle test, do I need to attempt the test both the time or I can stop if I am satisfied by the first result?

@DuolingoEnglishTest 11 месяцев назад

Hi! Congratulations on your results! 👏If you choose to take another test, you will be able to choose which test results you want to send to your universities. Also, if you purchase the bundle and you are satisfied with the first result, you are not required to take the second test. However, you won't be refunded for the second one and you can't pass the credit along to someone else.

@Maelstrom2077 11 месяцев назад

Hi my name is Joseph, i have been practicing alot lately and to be honest i fear that my “estimated scores” are sugarcoated and my real scores would be lower, I am afraid of getting a grade below 105 since most universities has that grade set as a requirement, I have been practicing for a week and my grade estimates go from 100-140 all the way to 115-145, sometimes a mix of the two, Do these estimated scores have some sort of relevancy to the actual test or should i just not care about them?

@DuolingoEnglishTest 11 месяцев назад

Hey Joseph! The practice test score ranges are definitely an estimate, so I would say don't focus on them too much. However, if yours have consistently been in the same range, they can be a predictor of your performance. Judging by this comment, your English is great--I'm sure you'll do well on the test!

@Maelstrom2077 11 месяцев назад

@@DuolingoEnglishTest thank you, i have taken the test yesterday and to be quite frank with you i was nervous and it shows, sometimes id stutter, sometimes i didnt finish a few questions because of how nervous i was, i suggest Duolingo gives test takers more time in order to get more accurate results on how well does the test taker speak english, the DET was nerve wrecking to be completely honest

It is ok to look at the keyboard while typing! Try to keep your eyes on screen during speaking, reading, or listening questions. Have you chatted with our support team?

@hamidshayan3619 Год назад

Is practice test reliable?

@DuolingoEnglishTest Год назад

The practice test is a great resource to learn about the questions you'll encounter on the real test! It will also give you an approximate score range based off your performance, but this range should be considered an estimate. The practice test is shorter (about 1/4 the time of the real test), so there's not as much content to evaluate and it isn't scored as thoroughly as the certified test.
