Achieving C1 Score 140-150 2024 | in DET Mock Test | Very bad writing skills

[@preetisharma1218]

Hii, In task manager background processing are running I tried to stop them but they don’t stop, it may create issues with my DET ?

[@DetPrep]

Hello, as long as those processes are not from Programs such as Teams, Discords, Steam, (Chat) Grammarly (Grammar or spelling correction) or OBS (Screen recording), most likely they won't cause any issues. Worst case scenario Duolingo will give you a second chance to take the test with no extra fees.

Sir,i am constantly scoring 105 to 115 so what i can actually score in main exam?

[@DetPrep]

That's a good score. Usually, the predicted score is very accurate, so there is a high chance you actually get 110. Just keep in mind that there is a threshold of ten points up or down, so there is a low chance you also get 95 or 120. You might also check if the University or Company you are applying to requires a minimum score per skill or just the general one. I hope it helps

@@DetPrep college requires 115 overall and no less than 95...

[@DetPrep]

@@lucarioyt8705 the lowest score on the practice test represents your weakest skill, so I can *almost* take for granted you will get them all 95 or above. I am bit more worried about the 115, although there is a chance you might get it in the first attempt the chances are not that high, probaly 20%, but if you have no more months to improve you English before you apply I would still take it once or twice, it is worth the attempt from my viewpoint

​@@lucarioyt8705 there is one video on my channel with keywords and details you can use to improve the writing part, it is "Called Domina el examen Duolingo..." Although it's Spanish so you will need to enable subtitles in case you take a look. Still, a nice template is: First and foremost ... A compelling example of this is ... For instance ... All in all. You can also use Chatgpt to correct your writring samples for free. I hope it helps

I'm scoring 110 to 130 on a regular basis so I would like to ask what can it be my scores? I got 120 in my third try

[@DetPrep]

Hello, yep, most likely you would get 120 on the real the test. Although there is a smaller chance that you get 125 or 130. Occasionally some people get 20 points bellow the lowest marging in production (105), but I don't think that is going to be your case. Also, If you need it to be 125 and you understand Spanish, you can take a look at one of my video called "Domina el exámen Duolingo..." It would help you to get those few more points that you might need. That aside, your English is already very good and I hope you can get the score you need

Hola amigo. ¿Si optengo 110- 120 en las practicas cual seria el valor de mi produccion con este promedio.

[@DetPrep]

Hola! No tengo sufiente información para calcular el valor promedio de producción, pero sí te puedo decir que 110 representa la habilidad más baja de las 4 en la simulación, por lo que hay el menos un 80% de probabilidad de que tu puntaje en producción sea igual o superior a 110. También he visto casos en que algunas personas sacan menos en producción que el valor más bajo de la simulación, pero son muy raros

it's the duolingo english test a reliable source to measure my english ? because a few days ago i did it and i got 115 - 125 but idk

[@DetPrep]

Hello, it is indeed. Although the practice test doesn't really mesure your production skill, so we kniw you have a B2 when it comes to reading or listening, but we don't know a about speaking or writing until you take the real test or a different exam like the IELTs, Cambridge or TOEFL

[@nicolasmorales1610]

Hi, I got 105 in my first try, but I will do it again in two weeks, any advice?

[@nicolasmorales1610]

I need 120 btw

[@DetPrep]

​@@nicolasmorales1610You need a very high Score. It can take a whole year to increase it to that level, *however* Fluency and spelling are the fastest skills to improve and you can get noticeable results in just two weeks. To improve your fluency just think and listen to English day and night non-stop until the day of the test, and don't try to provide "Smart" answers since this would make you hesitate. When it comes to spelling you can improve trying dictations at Lingua.c om or using Grammarly from their PC website, just be sure to be mindful of your mistakes so you do not repeat them never again. Just in case, if you understand Spanish I have a video of tips and tricks on how to take the DET. I hope it helps

@@DetPrep How to improve the real word finding i think this part is hard comparatively.

[@DetPrep]

@@josephinejesilam9397 if you mean the filling the endings, there are some useful topics for this: suffixes, passive voice, learning the spelling rules for gerund, verbs in the past and in the third person singular, as well as the spelling for the plurals. Also you can check if the words are repeated in the title or the rest of the text. But if you mean selecting the right word, you can learn the top 5000 words from Oxford, the file is on their website. I hope that helps
