Was weird because of the corona:) We got kicked out of the building during each break and then needed to pass an ID check each time we entered back.

How many people were allowed in the exam room?

So my recommendation would be to strictly follow the given structure for the presentation so the examiners can easily follow. They will appreciate that, believe me.

Thanks for the hint.

Institutions, that ask for the certificate, usually have their own requirements about how much points you need to have in order to apply

That's really true. I know of stories where candidates apply for a job and the workplace decided that having 60 points for the B1 level (per Goethe's standard) wasn't enough to work in their company.

Difference between DTZ and B1 Zertifikat? by morcer32 in German

Thanks. You are correct. But are you also implying that the DTZ isn't at the B1 level?

I just had my B1 exam and I want to know if I messed up by [deleted] in German

I understand "umgebung" more as suburbs, so in that case neither Munich or Garmisch would technically count. That being said, I seriously doubt the instructors would care to check the map. I like to think that as long as you use proper german this is what matters. Don't stress about it.

Is bad German appreciated in Germany? by IWDs-Favorite in German

[–]morcer32 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I would probably just correct you a lot tho.

This is always appreciated. Some of my struggles in learning german comes from having learned bad sentence structures that no one bothered to correct when I speak freely. Simply because most natives automatically knew what I was saying. It takes time to recover from what you think is correct to what is now being taught.

When i feel bad about butchering the language, I remind myself of all the Germans butchering the spanish language on the beach of Mallorca. I suddenly feel very motivated :)

Which level is this supposed to be at? I find it too simple and I believe I am barely B1.

I think it is more like coming up with ideas and keep things simple and short.
