You have to score a 1/1 for points SFC Private RallyPoint Member Tue, 28 Sep 2021 13:20:59 -0400 2021-09-28T13:20:59-04:00 https://www.rallypoint.com/answers/dlpt-for-promotion-points?n=7302259&urlhash=7302259 <div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Failure is not an option. Plan to succeed.<br /><br />Defense Language Proficiency Tests<br />If you are fluent in a language other than English, I highly suggest you take the proficiency test for that language. You must achieve a passing score of 1/1 in reading/speaking or listening to receive promotion points. You will receive 10 Army promotion points for each DLPT you successfully complete. These points are valid for 1 year from the month and year you earn them.

Civilian education <br />Maximum points: 135 for promotion to SGT and 160 for promotion to SSG. <br />f. Defense Language Proficiency Test. Twenty-five promotion points are granted to Soldiers who achieve a minimum limited working proficiency rating of 1/1 (listening, reading, or speaking) on the Defense Language Proficiency Test. <br />Promotion points remain valid provided the Defense Language Proficiency Test proficiency standards do not exceed 1 year (year/month) as of the point compilation month. <br /><br />Cool youtube video, but when you start teaching promotion (or anything) to your Soldiers, they&#39;ll be better off just learning how to read the reg.
