What is Duolingo?

The Duolingo English Test is a cutting-edge language assessment tool for today's international students and institutions. It provides an English proficiency score, a video interview, and a writing sample in a convenient, quick, and secure testing environment. The Duolingo English Test can be used instead of other standardised competency assessments by anyone. The scores are highly correlated to those of the TOEFL and IELTS, and results are available within 48 hours. In this time of COVID-19 crisis when students are not able to give the English Language Proficiency exams in the test center, Duolingo offers them the opportunity to attempt the test from their homes. However, not all the colleges are accepting the Duolingo test scores. Currently, the Duolingo exam is majorly used for admission to undergraduate programs in the US and Canada
