Hi everyone, I just received my DET score, and honestly I’m a bit disappointed since my target was 135 :(

I think the listening and speaking sections hit me the hardest. For listening, I struggled to remember the conversations accurately enough to write them back, and even the summary tasks felt quite difficult.

For speaking, I’m not really sure what the best strategy is. I mostly just kept talking until the timer ran out because I didn’t fully understand the scoring criteria for that section.

Does anyone have advice on how to improve speaking and listening for the DET? Thanks in advance for your support!
