  • Duolingo score is based on a scale of 10-160. If you score more than 120 then it means you can understand written and spoken language. It signifies that you can use it for academic or professional purposes. The total score that is displayed in your result gives a basic picture of what one can do and one's proficiency in particular areas is measured by the subscores. After appearing for the test one will obtain the test results within 48 hours of attempting the same.

    A Duolingo English Test score of 120 or above is generally considered good. Best Duolingo score depends on university requirements to which you are applying.

    A score equal to or above 120 often meets the English proficiency requirements of many universities and institutions worldwide. It may be possible that some institutions might have higher requirements.

When you apply for admission in any university with your DET score, the admission committee needs no verification. As Duolingo itself share the scorecard of your test directly to the university through its secure portal. This is to ensure authenticity and prevent tampering.

No, Duolingo does not announce a public list of speaking topics. However, candidates can prepare by practicing with commonly encountered themes such as food, family, studies, work, and entertainment. You need to focus on improving speaking skills. This will help you in every topic you want to speak.
