Finished my German tree! :)

[.KonoDioDa.]

Really, really great experience for me. I've studied German outside of Duolingo before coming here, so I was prepared... lol. :)

Thanks for bringing me this experience!

I would do a screenshot of my amazing golden owl, but unfortunately, I'm not sure how I can upload it on to a discussion. : )

What is your final "% Fluent" score in German, after finishing the tree?

[SamijaH.]

I finished my tree as well and my final % is 48. I am having 48% even though my tree is kept completely golden all the time.

[HortensiaDean]

How many words have you learnt?

[SamijaH.]

All of them. 1941 Words

[ytide]

I wonder why there is no way to rise above 48%? Maybe future updates :D

[ScottInBrooklyn]

I'm at 49% and I'm not quite done with my tree. I've only got one set of lessons left, but still, I'm over 48%. No clue how or why.

[SamijaH.]

It is normal. I heared some people had somewhere around 52% but that is highest that I heared about.

[multilingue87]

I tested my way through the whole French course for fun. I reached 54% in about 10 minutes and it never went up after that.

[.KonoDioDa.]

{@style=color: red}58%

[shosta_k]

Interesting - just finished the German tree myself and I am 49% 'fluent' and level 24; took about 2 years to do it. Must be related to frequency not just number of words learnt. I did get to 52% at one stage then obviously deteriorated.

[nancypurple32]

I finished my tree in 6 months, at level 17, all golden, but only at 37% "fluency." I think its because I do a lot of my practice on the bus, and have frequent typos which the program picks up as mistakes. Really not sure what factors they look at.

unaffiliated Asterisk's.

[Thomas330458]

Wild - I'm level 18 and still haven't even reached the last checkpoint.

[heschmat]

It's not how fast you finish, but rather if you can actually use what you've learned. Keep up the good works. :-)

[Rejistania]

Some people's study habits are radically different. I personally always keep my trees gilded so I am at some freakishly high levels for what little I learnied.

[Mattenhall]

Even though I am level 6 in Irish I only just passed the first checkpoint, because it's a difficult language that needs plenty of practice. But my Spanish tree? It's super easy and I'm around halfway done :)

[solopipe]

Cos you review and keep your strength bars up . You know more German than someone who races through the tree without ever revisiting a lesson.

[.KonoDioDa.]

Well, I hope you finish it soon:)

[TiimedArts]

I wonder if it works

[Teacuppy]

Herzliche Glückwünsche :)

[.KonoDioDa.]

Thanks! Hard to remember:P

[Teacuppy]

I'm on my way to finish the German tree :) although it's going slow, because it is huge XDXDXD :)

[Krinadoodle]

It's a long tree, but the longer it is the more you learn =)

[.KonoDioDa.]

[TiimedArts]

<h1>***{@style=color:pink} Oh I am HAPPYYYYYYYYY</h1>

[TrevorHawkins1]

Congratulations! As far as the % fluent, it depends on how you test out. I was stuck at 48-52% for the longest time, and then I took a progress test and got a 4.9/5, if I remember correctly and now my fluency level is 66%, according to the green owl itself.
