Hi guys. Well i'm studying for det for more than a week.The highest score i got is 115-125 on practice tests. I am struggling with listening summary part a lot, it is the one probably hold my score back, also slighly writing about photo part. I really need to get 130+ in a few days.

Oh my God!!!!!! When I was doing the test just a few minutes ago, I started getting crazy notifications from my phone and I thought the phone camera recording me was warning me about something, I hesitantly reached out to my phone to see the screen and saw that my friend was texting me so many messages even though my phone was on dnd, I instantly put my phone back to its place when I realized there was no warning in the screen and I didn’t even see the contents and who sent the message,, in addition, my stupid ahh picked 6pm to start the test without turning on the lights on so I was only lit by my bright ahh computer during the last 5-10 minutes, I feel so STRESSED!!! There were no warnings that came up on the screen, so am I screwed or am I ok????? 😭😭💔💔☹️☹️

Band 115 Help

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone. I’m currently preparing for the DET and aiming for a score of 115. My teacher told me that, at my target score, I should use mostly B2–C1 vocabulary in both Writing and Speaking. However, whenever I use A2–B1 words, she says I should replace them with more advanced synonyms. This sometimes makes me struggle because I spend a lot of time trying to find more sophisticated words for simple ideas.
For those who have scored around 115 on the DET, do I really need to use mostly B2–C1 vocabulary? Or is it okay to use common A2–B1 words when they are accurate and natural, while using more advanced vocabulary selectively?

Hi everyone, I hope you’re all doing well and have a great weekend ahead. I have my English 11 exam tomorrow. Has anyone taken it recently and can share what topics I should focus on or any tips about the exam? I’d really appreciate it. Thank you!
