Question 1

What is Duolingo English Test (DET) coaching management software?

Accepted Answer

It is a module for coaching centres that run Duolingo English Test preparation batches alongside their IELTS and PTE coaching. It covers scheduling a DET batch, recording each student's practice-attempt sub-scores, tracking attempts over the coaching period, and keeping that record on the same student case used for visa/admission processing — instead of DET prep being tracked separately from everything else the coaching centre already manages in spreadsheets or a notebook.

Question 2

How is the Duolingo English Test scored, and how does VisaBOS record it?

Accepted Answer

The DET produces an overall score from 10 to 160 in increments of 5, built from four sub-scores (Literacy, Conversation, Comprehension, Production). VisaBOS lets a coaching centre log a student's sub-scores per practice attempt in that same structure, so a teacher can see which sub-score is holding a student back across attempts rather than only an overall number.

Question 3

Is this a replacement for IELTS or PTE mock test tracking?

Accepted Answer

No — it sits alongside them. Our IELTS mock test management software and PTE coaching management software cover those two tests specifically. A growing number of coaching centres now run DET batches as well, since it is accepted by a large and growing number of institutions, and this page gives DET the same dedicated batch and attempt tracking those two tests already have — rather than leaving it as an afterthought inside a generic student record.

Question 4

What does the DET actually involve, and how is that reflected in the tracking?

Accepted Answer

The DET is an adaptive, AI- and human-proctored test taken at home in roughly an hour, rather than at a physical test centre. VisaBOS does not run or proctor the test itself — it tracks the coaching side: batch scheduling, practice-attempt sub-scores, and a student's progress across attempts, the same way it tracks IELTS and PTE mock attempts, so your team has one place to see where every student stands regardless of which test they're preparing for.

Question 5

How long do DET results take, and does the software track that turnaround?

Accepted Answer

Results are commonly reported as available in around 48 hours after a real DET attempt, with a paid faster add-on commonly cited at roughly 12 hours — figures set by Duolingo and revised periodically, so always confirm the current number with the student before committing to a date. VisaBOS lets you log the date a student books and sits their real DET attempt against their case, so your team can follow up on results without a separate reminder system.

Question 6

What is the current DET fee, and does VisaBOS track that too?

Accepted Answer

The standard fee is commonly reported as USD 70 per attempt (raised from USD 65 in February 2025), with a two-test bundle commonly cited around USD 118 — these are Duolingo-set figures that have changed before, so confirm the current price directly with the student rather than quoting from memory. VisaBOS lets you log the fee a student has paid for a real attempt against their case record, alongside your coaching fees, rather than tracking it separately.

Question 7

How many institutions accept the DET?

Accepted Answer

It is commonly cited as accepted by 6,000+ institutions worldwide, though the exact figure varies by source and changes as more institutions adopt it — treat it as a directional number, not a precise count, when advising a student on whether a target institution accepts it.

Question 8

Is there a free trial for the DET coaching module?

Accepted Answer

Yes — VisaBOS offers a 14-day free trial with full access to DET batch and attempt tracking on your own student data, with no credit card required, so you can judge the fit before committing.
