The ÖSD exam: Zertifikat A1
The Austrian ÖSD Zertifikat A1 tests the same skills in a different shape.
The written module — 75 points, passed from 38:
- Lesen — 3 Aufgaben, 30 points
- Hören — 3 Aufgaben, 30 points
- Schreiben — Formular 5 + Text 10
Plus three minimums: at least 6 points in Lesen, at least 6 points in Hören, and at least 4 of the 10 points for the text (Schreiben Aufgabe 2). Miss one of them and the written module is not passed, whatever the total.
The oral exam is taken individually: 3 Aufgaben, 25 points, passed from 12.
You can take and certify the two modules separately.
| Modul | Aufgaben | Punkte | bestanden |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lesen | 3 | 30 | mind. 6 |
| Hören | 3 | 30 | mind. 6 |
| Schreiben | Formular (5) + Text (10) | 15 | Text: mind. 4 von 10 |
| schriftlich gesamt | 75 | ab 38 | |
| Mündlich (einzeln) | 3 | 25 | ab 12 |
Tip
ÖSD says Aufgabe where Goethe says Teil — the skills underneath are the same ones you've built.
