In your result feedback, you will have estimated scores for overall, sub-scores, and especially each question type. You should know that the scores are estimated based on your performance for all questions, and it provides feedback with more details compared to the 30-minute practice tests provided by the official Duolingo English Test website for the following reasons:

• We provide a Full Mock test - 1 hour long: The 1-hour Mock test at TADE Hub is similar to the actual one providing the same number of questions that we have more input to provide more accurate estimated scores.
• We evaluate your Speaking and Writing questions: Right after submitting your answers for each question, we immediately evaluate your answers based on the same grading elements in order to estimate each question type score. By doing so, students know what question types that they are good at and what needs improvement.

We strongly recommend DET takers take this 1-hour Mock test like taking the actual one to have the best result and most accurate scores.
