Yes! After room scan you may be asked to perform an ear scan. You will need to keep your phone camera close to you. This proves you are not wearing wireless earbuds.

Yes, many Belgian universities now take the Duolingo English Test. It is much more easy and cheap than IELTS. Schools like University of Antwerp or VUB often accept it, but always check their website first.

No, you can not. You must use a laptop or desktop computer. Make sure it's OS is Windows or macOS. iPads, tablets, and Chromebooks are not supported. Because they cannot run the secure test launcher software.

AI drives entire DET exam. It adjusts difficulty of questions in real-time based on your specific answers. This makes the test accurate. Also, AI monitors for cheating and grades your test instantly. This is why you get results so fast.

There is no fixed list of topics. DET test assesses real world language skills across reading, writing, listening, and speaking. You should practice general English usage rather than memorizing specific textbook chapters.

A good score depends on university. Most top programs prefer an "Advanced" score between 125 and 160. This level shows you can understand complex language and interact effectively in academic settings. Always check your specific course requirements first.
