Hello, I think DET has a different way of calculating the overall score. It looks like they are averaging the sub scores. However, that's not the case. I would recommend reaching out to their support team to understand how your score was calculated.

Hello, I would recommend you watching my tips and strategies videos and all the practice sessions videos. This will help you to understand what the differences between your answers and mine are and why is the score 70-80.

Hello, I am sorry to hear that your test wasn't uploaded. I think you should reach out to DET support team to understand what the situation is. They'll notify you if they received the test or there is some issue associated with it. You can reach out to their support team by clicking HELP button on the bottom right of the screen on DET website.

Hello, Yes, the marking criteria for writing and speaking questions mentions that you will be marked based on how well is your answer constructed logically. I always recommend formulating your answer in a way that it has Introduction, Main idea and conclusion. Hope that helps.

Hello, In my opinion, having a structured answer is always better as it gives reader an idea on what is intro, what is main idea and what is conclusion. If you are abke to follow the paragraph apprach to write the answer, that is good. But make sure that your answer is in (Intro + Main idea +Conclusion)

Hello, No, you won't be able to cheat in the Duolingo English Test. If you caught doing so, your ID can be blocked from giving the test again. The DET test can be difficult at times but with practice you can achieve the score you're looking for.

Hello, Practice test score cannot be corelated to score on certified test. Practice tests are just meant to give students feel about how the actual test will be and what should they expect. Score on certified test completely depends on your ability to answer all the question types.

Hello, Mainly students face issues with achieving good production score. In that case, make sure you understand the writing and speaking question. Secondly, make sure that you answer what is being asked. For example, if there are 3 sub question in a question, make sure that you are answering them specifically at first. Learn few synonyms, so that you can add variety of words in your answer to show off vocabulary. Try to learn some linking words as they would make your sentences complex. try forming your answer in the Intro+Main idea +conclusion for both speaking and writing answer. Basically, check out how I form the writing answer in my current and other practice test videos.

Hello, There are quiet a few things that you can do to improve your production score. Firstly make sure that your pronunciation is correct and clearly audible.

Hello, Score of 110 - 120 is good in practice test. However, you need to understand that the score in practice test does not guarantee you the same score in certified test. Practice test are just meant for students to understand the test pattern. Secondly, scores in practice test also helps you to understand that if you perform the same on certified test, there are high chances that you will achieve the score in that range. In your case, score of 130 completely depends on how well you perform on your certified test. My suggestion would be for you to feel confident and ready. Once you think that you have practiced enough, you can then come on to the decision to appear for your test. Hope that helps.

I always tried to answer the all cues please give me some suggestions how to improve within 2 days because I applied for my further study if you have any solution. Please help me out

I am not sure about your timeline of 2 days. In my opinion that is too little of time to adapt any new change. That being said, it completely depends on you. Try making above changes and that should edge up your score.

Hello, I am glad that you found it helpful.

Hello, I think that with hard work and lots of practice you should be able to achieve what you are looking for.

I think that's a good answer.

Please correct. If there is any mistakes.

It's a good answer. Just few mistakes here and there. Seating needs to be spelled Sitting. "Parrot is green in color and watching somthing right side" can be written as Parrot is green in color and hooked watching something on the right" Last sentence can be rewritten as "The zoo keeper might have practiced a lot to be able to have parrot seated.

Hello, You really need to practice every day to increase your typing speed. This is helpful as you need to write as much as you can in short period of time. It is difficult but not impossible.

No, you can’t. One of the rules of the exam is not headphones

Hello, No, you cannot use headphones or earphones on the certified test. As per DET rules, your eyes, ears and mouth should be uncovered and visible clearly.

So, yes you're correct that it isn't visible clearly that there are store timings on it or not. But since you need to increase the content of you answer you can make up things like that. Technically, you're are not since you are talking something about the board which is there in the picture.

@@LearnwithNikunj thanks for this tip Sir 💞💞

Hello, I think there are lot of factors that could affect your score. Just writing like what I am writing won't necessarily help you score 145 or 150 in practice test. You need to make sure that you are making less errors during your speaking and rest of the question types. AI that assesses the practice test is same for everyone and it corrects the test the same way for all the question that it receives.

@@LearnwithNikunj Most of my points are relevant to the question but I shutter or pause while speaking but What should I do man? I am an introvert person and because of that I feel anxious while speaking. The fill in the blanks questions are also tricky....

So, I would say that this is a common issue that many students face. The only way how you can overcome this is by including speaking in English regularly. The results won't come in a week or so, you'll have to speak as much as possible. It doesn't matter if you are making mistake. The point here is for you to get comfortable with language. The video for fill in the blanks with strategies is coming out soon.

​​@@LearnwithNikunj Thanks bro. Looking forward to fill in the blanks strategies video soon. Could you also make one video on how to show passport to the camera in the real exam for me?please.
