I would not recommend the Duolingo English Test based on my experience. During my exam, I encountered multiple technical issues, including camera malfunctions and system errors. For a high-stakes test that costs $70, the platform should be much more stable and reliable.When I contacted support, I felt that the responsibility was placed entirely on me rather than addressing possible system faults. I was told that background apps or internet stability could be the issue, despite having a strong and stable connection. Instead of acknowledging potential technical problems, the response focused on blaming user-side factors.Given that many students taking this exam are applying to universities and may come from limited financial backgrounds, the price feels high for a service that may require retakes due to technical instability. The fee waiver process also appears difficult to access.Overall, the technical reliability and support experience did not meet the expectations for a paid standardized test.
