Duolingo English Test

*** IMPORTANT NOTE ***

Duolingo introduced a NEW READING SECTION into the official test on March 30, 2022.
This course does not yet cover the tips for that part of the test.
It gives tips for all other parts of the test, but not for this one.

The test is still 1 hour long – they have not changed the length of the test.
1. Introduction and onboarding ~5 minutes
2. Adaptive test ~45 minutes
3. Writing Sample and Speaking Sample ~10 minutes

This change also means that the number of other tasks from the test has changed!

Read and Complete, Read and Select, Listen and Select, Listen and Type, Read Aloud: 4-6 times each

Write About the Photo 3
Speak About the Photo 1
Read, Then Write 1
Read, Then Speak 1
Listen, Then Speak 2
Writing Sample 1
Speaking Sample 1
The Interactive Reading sections are 7-8 minutes long and there are two of them, so it means this new part takes around 15 minutes of the test.

  Highly RECOMMEND!”
