Almost all the traditional English Proficiency Tests have been suspended in most countries affected by a coronavirus. In this situation, many American and Canadian Higher Learning Institutions have started accepting Duolingo Test as a proof of English proficiency, mainly to grant admission to international students with no native English Background. They consider Duolingo English test as a temporary alternative to traditional IELTS/TOFEL/PTE.
Duolingo is an American platform that includes a language-learning website and mobile app, as well as a digital language proficiency assessment exam. Duolingo is simpler and easier when compared to the other traditional tests. You can take Duolingo from your home anytime. You don’t need to travel to the Test Centres during this lockdown period. No prior booking is required.

Unlike the other English proficiency tests, the cost to take up the test is comparatively low, 49$ with free reporting to any number of Universities. The institutions consider the test taken after the 1st of February valid. The test result is available in 42 hours. It has a validity of 2 years.
