In this, a question will appear on the test taker's screen to which he/she will have to respond in minimum 50 words. So one has to first read the question and then write about it. Once the timer begins, instructions for this question will be displayed. Take your time and make sure you give the best possible reply to what is asked. How many words have you used will appear below the text box. Also, the test taker won't be able to press 'next' until they have written a total of 50 words atleast.

Yes, it is important. Using a Duolingo sample paper allows you to experience the unique computer-adaptive format and practice new question types like "Interactive Writing" in a low-pressure environment. It builds speed.
However, be realistic. The sample test is much shorter (15-30 minutes) than the actual exam, so while it is great for checking your readiness, the score it gives is only an estimate and not a guarantee. Practice daily.
