Write About The Topic: Key Points

The document provides tips and strategies for the writing portion of the Duolingo English Test. It advises test takers to use all of the 5 minutes allotted for each question and to write responses longer than the minimum 50 words. Test takers should check their work for spelling, grammar, and punctuation errors before submitting since mistakes will not affect the score until the answer is submitted. Leaving time to proofread responses is also recommended.
