1. One of the best benefits of DET over IELTS or TOEFL is that you don’t need to visit the testing centres; instead, you can appear at your home in a quiet, well-lit room with a good internet connection.
2. Cost for DET is almost 1/4th of that you pay for the other traditional tests. It costs only 49 dollars (3720 INR) against 180-200 dollars (14000-15500 INR) for IELTS and TOEFL.
3. It is a very short duration test of just 45-60 minutes whereas IELTS and TOEFL take around
2-3 hours. In the case of IELTS, it is given in the period of 2 days.
4. You will get your test results within 48 hours of giving DET whereas in IELTS and TOEFL it takes around 10-20 days for test results. 5. Before appearing for the main DET you have the facility of appearing for multiple mock tests to get an exact idea of the testing system which is not available in case of IELTS or TOEFL.
