My TOEFL score is 116 but I still got UCLA’s email to take Duolingo English Test. I called UCLA undergraduate admissions office today and the lady said that Duolingo test is optional and would not impact my admission results. I am not sure if the test will add any additional value to my application? Are they looking at the higher of TOEFL and Duolingo score? Has any other UC asked for it?
