Duolingo Overview

The Duolingo English Test (DET) is a modern, internet-based English proficiency exam designed for non-native English speakers who want to study abroad. It is fully online and adaptive, meaning the test adjusts the difficulty of questions based on the test-taker’s responses. The examination assesses the four core language skills — reading, writing, listening, and speaking — and provides a score on a scale from 10 to 160. DET is recognized by many universities and institutions worldwide as a valid proof of English language ability. The Duolingo English Test (DET) is ideal for students and professionals who require a validated English proficiency score for university applications, scholarships, admissions, or visa purposes. There are no strict eligibility restrictions, and anyone with access to a computer equipped with a webcam, microphone, and stable internet connection can take the test from home. The DET score is valid for two years from the date of the test. After two years, candidates are generally required to retake the test if institutions request an updated score. Duolingo offers free official practice tests and sample questions to help students understand the exam format.
