Applying from India? Some programmes here accept Duolingo, PTE or TOEFL Home Edition. The German missions in India do not recognise these tests for the student visa, so you will still need a test such as IELTS.
Not recognised for the visa in India: Duolingo English Test, PTE Academic, TOEFL iBT Home Edition.Source
“Please note that neither Duolingo tests nor Pearson PTE or TOEFL home edition tests are recognized for applications in India.”
