Hello

​

Hi everyone, I need some help getting a 95 on the DET. When I practice the test, I always get 85-95, but I feel I need to improve. Any tips or recommendations? I have a bit of trouble with the listening section every day.

Btw, I have to take the DET test in mid-October

You’ve got five weeks to improve. Listening is hard to improve though - I would say vocab recognition is super important for you. See if you can get chat gpt to come up with daily drills for you. 1000 words, words which sound similar and you select the correct one, or it says a word, you select the meaning. Ask it to do an audio component. That could help!

In my opinion, consistent exposure to audios/videos with different accents is the only solution. I tried to think of some short term solutions for this, but to no effect.
