About Prepliq — TELC, Goethe-Zertifikat & TestDaF Mock Exam Platform
Nearly half of all first-time German exam takers do not pass. The most common reason is not a lack of language skills — it is a lack of exam preparation. Prepliq is a mock exam platform that offers realistic practice tests for TELC (A1–C2), Goethe-Institut (Goethe-Zertifikat A1–C2), and TestDaF (TDN3–5), with instant feedback on Writing and Speaking — the two exam components students cannot self-assess on their own. Every practice exam is unique, scored against official criteria, and available as a one-time purchase starting at €9.99.
Why Prepliq Exists
German language exams have high failure rates. According to data from the German Federal Office for Migration and Refugees (BAMF), nearly half of first-time test takers do not reach the required B1 level on the Deutsch-Test für Zuwanderer. Among those who retake the exam, the numbers are even worse — in 2019, over 77% of repeat test takers failed again. These are not rare edge cases. Hundreds of thousands of students take German certification exams every year, and a significant portion walk in underprepared.
The financial cost of failing is substantial. Official TELC exams cost between €189 and €249 depending on level. Goethe-Institut exams (Goethe-Zertifikat A1–C2) range from €155 to €359. If you fail, you pay the full fee again — there are no discounts on retakes. A student who fails TELC B1 at €229 and retakes it has spent €458 before even passing. For the roughly 750,000 people who take these exams annually — many preparing for immigration, citizenship, university admission, or professional certification — that is a significant and avoidable financial risk.
The gap in existing preparation is in Writing and Speaking. Official providers publish one or two sample tests per level, but those are static PDFs with no scoring. Language schools offer preparation courses costing €300–€800, but they rarely include realistic exam simulation with structured feedback. There is no widely available way to take a full-format practice test, submit a written response, and receive feedback scored against official exam criteria — until Prepliq.
We built Prepliq to close that gap. A €9.99 practice exam can show you whether you're ready — or exactly which components need more work — before you commit €229 to the real thing. Students who know their weak points before exam day are far less likely to become part of the retake statistics.
What You Get with Prepliq
Every Prepliq plan includes full access to all features below. There are no feature-locked tiers — the only difference between plans is the duration of access.
Complete Exam Simulation
- Unlimited unique practice exams — every test is created on demand, not a recycled PDF. Over 1,000 possible test variations per exam level.
- All 5 official exam components covered: Reading, Grammar, Listening, Writing, and Speaking. Same format, same question types, same timing as the official test.
- 2 practice modes: Instant mode (feedback after every answer) and Exam mode (no feedback until the end — full exam simulation).
- Timed conditions that match the real exam, so you can build stamina and time management skills before exam day.
Writing & Speaking Feedback
- Writing submissions are analyzed and scored against official TELC and Goethe criteria — task fulfillment, coherence, vocabulary range, and grammatical accuracy. You receive detailed corrections with explanations, not just a pass/fail score.
- Speaking practice uses an interactive conversation format covering all oral exam tasks. Your recorded responses are evaluated for fluency, task completion, and grammatical correctness.
- Writing and Speaking are the two components students consistently struggle with most, because they require external evaluation. Textbooks and sample PDFs cannot tell you whether your Writing section would pass. Prepliq can.
Performance Tracking & Learning Tools
- Component-by-component score breakdowns show exactly where you stand — which areas are exam-ready and which need more practice.
- Track improvement across multiple attempts to see your progress over time.
- Grammar explanations for every question — not just whether your answer was right, but why.
- Step-by-step task guides for each exam part, so you understand exactly what is expected.
- Cross-device sync — start practicing on your laptop, continue on your phone. Your progress, scores, and exam history sync automatically.
Why Students Choose Prepliq
Prepliq is the only platform where you can take unlimited scored TELC, Goethe-Zertifikat, and TestDaF mock exams across 5 languages and all levels A1–C2 — for a single flat payment with no monthly fees. No other exam preparation platform matches this combination of coverage, feedback quality, and pricing.
60%+
Higher pass rate
Students who complete 5 or more full mock exams on Prepliq increase their pass rate by over 60% compared to students who prepare with static materials alone. The combination of realistic exam simulation, timed conditions, and component-level feedback allows students to identify and address their weak points before exam day — when the stakes are €150–€350 per attempt.
1,000+
Unique mock exam variations per level
Prepliq creates a fresh exam every time you start a practice test — over 1,000+ unique variations per level. You never run out of new material to practice with, and you can't memorize answers because every exam is different.
More Coverage Than Any Competitor
- 39 exam configurations — Prepliq covers TELC (A1–C2 in 5 languages), Goethe-Institut (A1–C2), and TestDaF (TDN3–5). The next closest competitor covers 4 configurations.
- Unlimited unique exams — every practice test is created fresh. No other platform in this market offers unlimited unique mock exams. Competitor platforms typically offer 20–100 static test sets, and users frequently report running out of practice material within days.
- Writing and Speaking feedback scored against official criteria — only one other platform (at €29.99/month) offers both. Prepliq starts at €9.99.
- One-time payment, no subscription — every competing platform that offers comparable features uses monthly subscriptions ranging from €9.90 to €29.99 per month. Prepliq's 90-day plan costs €49.99 total — 44% less than the leading competitor's 3-month subscription cost of €89.97.
What Sets Prepliq Apart
Other platforms focus on one level, one language, or one exam provider. Prepliq is the first platform to combine all three major exam providers (TELC, Goethe, TestDaF) with full A1–C2 coverage, instant Writing and Speaking feedback, 5 TELC languages, and flat one-time pricing. This makes Prepliq the most comprehensive and affordable exam preparation platform on the market.
Supported Exams
Prepliq covers three major exam providers — TELC, Goethe-Zertifikat, and TestDaF. Each exam follows the exact official format with all five components.
TELC
A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2 — available in German, English, French, Spanish, and Italian. 30 exam configurations in total.
Goethe-Institut
A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2 — available in German. The Goethe-Zertifikat is one of the most widely recognized German language certificates worldwide.
TestDaF

Pricing
All plans are one-time payments. There are no subscriptions, no auto-renewals, and no recurring charges. Access expires at the end of the purchased period. Every plan includes full access to all exams and features.
7-Day Access — €9.99 (€1.43/day): Full access to all exams and feedback features. Ideal for a final check before exam day.
30-Day Access — €24.99 (€0.83/day): The most popular choice for focused exam preparation. Enough time to take multiple mock exams and track improvement.
90-Day Access — €49.99 (€0.56/day): For students preparing across multiple exam levels or over a longer timeframe.
For context: a single Goethe B2 exam costs €289. All three Prepliq plans combined (€84.97) cost less than one official exam attempt. The leading competitor charges €29.99 per month — after 3 months that is €89.97. Prepliq's 90-day plan covers the same period for €49.99, which is 44% less.
Who Prepliq Is For
Prepliq is not a language course. We assume you have already learned German — through a language school, university program, self-study, or daily life in a German-speaking country. Our role begins when you need to verify whether you are ready for the official exam.
Students preparing for immigration, citizenship, university admission, or professional certification use Prepliq to take realistic mock exams before committing €150–€350 to the official test. Language teachers recommend it as a readiness check for their students.
If you are consistently scoring above 70% across all five exam components on Prepliq, you are likely ready for the real exam. If not, the component-by-component breakdown tells you exactly where to focus your remaining study time.
Our Approach
We focus on one thing: helping students know whether they are ready for their exam. Not teaching grammar. Not replacing language courses. Just giving you an honest, detailed answer to the question: 'Would I pass if I took the exam today?'
Every feature we build is designed to close the gap between the last day of your language course and the day you walk into the exam center. The feedback is structured around what real examiners check — task fulfillment, coherence, vocabulary range, and grammatical accuracy. The exams are timed and formatted identically to the official test, because surprises on exam day are the last thing you need.
When nearly half of first-time test takers fail and retake failure rates exceed 77%, the problem is clear: students are walking into exams without knowing their weak points. A €9.99 mock exam that reveals those gaps is worth far more than the €229 retake fee it prevents.
We believe exam preparation should be accessible and transparent. That means one-time pricing with no hidden fees, no subscription traps, and no feature-gating. Every student gets the same tools, regardless of which plan they choose.
