Dlpt Passing Score
Proficiency scores are assigned to both the listening and reading portions. Scores can range from 0+ to 3 for lower-range (i.e., “easier”) languages or up to 4 on upper-range (more difficult) languages. To ensure currency, linguists take the DLPT every year.
The DLPT requires a lot of vocab “bottom up” to pass the lower levels; but for the higher levels, it requires “top down” recognition of contexts and “patterns of speech”. Students and linguists who have to translate every word do not do as well on the test as those who understand contextually.

The DLPT 5 (a computer-based test) is now the only test in use for languages of interest to the Coast Guard. For most languages, there are two parts: a reading and a listening part.

What happens if you fail the DLPT?
Failing to maintain the required levels of proficiency may result in a reduction of foreign language proficiency pay at best, and failure to qualify for continued work in the linguist career field in a worst-case scenario.
