Duolingo English Test exam help guide

The Duolingo English Test is an online, computer-adaptive English proficiency test used for admissions and other language-proficiency requirements. The official structure page says candidates need about 1 hour of uninterrupted time. Onboarding includes camera, speakers, microphone, government-issued photo ID, phone-camera setup to record the computer, and review of test rules. The adaptive test changes some question difficulty based on performance and uses a large item pool, so each sitting can vary. Current question frequency includes Read and Select 15-18, Fill in the Blanks 6-9, Read and Complete 3-6, Listen and Type 6-9, Interactive Reading 2 sets of 6 questions, Interactive Listening 2 sets of 8-10 questions, Write About the Photo 3, Interactive Writing 1 set of 2 questions, Speak About the Photo 1, Read, Then Speak 1, Interactive Speaking 1 set of 6-8 questions, Writing Sample 1, and Speaking Sample 1. Scores are reported on a 10-160 scale with Reading, Writing, Listening, and Speaking skill subscores, and results are typically received within two days.
