What is the Duolingo English Test?
The Duolingo English Test (DET) is an online, computer-adaptive English proficiency test. You take it at home on your own computer, any time, with no test centre or booking. In about an hour it measures your reading, listening, writing and speaking, and gives you one overall score plus a subscore for each skill.
Accepted by universities
More than 4,400 universities and institutions in over 130 countries accept the Duolingo English Test, including many in Australia, the UK, Canada, the USA and New Zealand.
Take it at home, any time
No test centre and no booking. You need a computer with a camera, microphone and internet connection, plus a quiet, well-lit room and your ID.
Results in about two days
Results usually arrive within two days. Scores are valid for two years, and you can send them free to as many institutions as you like.
Score from 10 to 160
You get an overall score from 10 to 160 in steps of 5, plus subscores for Reading, Listening, Writing and Speaking. The overall score is the average of the four subscores, and most reading and listening questions adapt to your level as you go.
About one hour
A short setup and ID check, then about 55 minutes of questions across all four skills. Every section is scored, including the final Writing Sample and Speaking Sample, which are also sent to universities with your results.
Check visa rules first
The Department of Home Affairs does not list the Duolingo English Test among its accepted tests for Australian visas. Your AMET counsellor will check whether it suits your course and visa before you buy.
Test format
The Duolingo English Test takes about an hour, in one sitting, with no scheduled breaks.
| Part | Time | What you do |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Introduction & setup | ~5 min | Check your computer, camera and microphone, read the rules and verify your ID. |
| 2. Scored questions | ~45 min | Reading and listening tasks (such as Read and Select, Fill in the Blanks, Listen and Type, Interactive Reading and Interactive Listening), then writing and speaking tasks (such as Write About the Photo, Interactive Writing, Speak About the Photo, Read, Then Speak and Interactive Speaking). Most reading and listening questions adapt to your level. |
| 3. Writing Sample & Speaking Sample | ~10 min | A 5-minute written response and a 3-minute spoken response. Both are scored as part of your Writing and Speaking subscores, and are also sent to the institutions you share your results with. |
Format, timings and policies are set by Duolingo and can change. Check englishtest.duolingo.com before your test.
