Self-study German exam prep, without a language school
A language course teaches you German. It does not necessarily teach you the exam — and the exam is what stands between you and the certificate. If you already study on your own with apps, textbooks and Netflix, the missing pieces are usually two: full timed papers, and listening audio recorded at real exam speed.
Sound familiar?
- Courses cost hundreds of euros and run at times you cannot make.
- Apps make you feel productive without ever simulating the exam.
- Free practice PDFs online almost never include the audio files.
- Without answer keys you cannot tell whether you would actually pass.
How we help
Five complete papers per level
Enough to establish a trend: sit one, review every mistake, sit the next a week later.
The audio nobody else gives you
Every listening section plays at the same pace as the real Hörverstehen, in the browser, next to the paper.
A score you can actually trust
Marked automatically per module, with your Schreiben graded against the official criteria for the level rather than left to your own judgement.
Retake as often as you want
Every attempt is scored separately for the whole three months, so you can watch the number move instead of guessing.
Pick your level
Five complete mocks per level, sat online on the official clock and scored the moment you submit. One mock at every level is free. One level is €29. All 40 mocks, every level, are €45 — €1.12 per exam.
Frequently asked questions
+Can I really pass a German exam through self-study?
Thousands of people do every year, particularly at A1 and A2. The main risk with self-study is the speaking module, which is a live test we do not simulate — practise that out loud with a partner or a tutor.
+How many mock exams should I do?
Five is the sweet spot: the first shows your gaps, the middle three fix them, the last confirms you are ready. Doing them back to back without reviewing mistakes is wasted effort.
+What else do I need besides mock exams?
A grammar reference for your level and a vocabulary habit. Mock exams tell you what to study; they are not a substitute for learning the language.
