Same 4 modules, 3 h and pass rule as the official Goethe B1 exam. Last checked against Goethe’s official B1 format in October 2026.

## Your Goethe B1 model test score, module by module

*Your result*

Prepliq judges your **Goethe B1 model test** on Goethe’s own module pass rule. Under **Goethe’s official rules**, each module is its own exam. Reading, Listening, Writing and Speaking each need **60 of 100 points**.

In Prepliq’s result, each module gets **its own Passed or Failed**, with no total. So **a strong module never hides a weak one**.

Under Goethe’s official rules, you retake a failed module on its own, as often as you need, but **each retake is booked and paid again**.

Is your writing or your speaking still being checked? Then the result shows what is done and **adds the rest as soon as it arrives**.

**Review Answers** opens the whole model test with your answers in place. Each question shows **your answer next to the correct one**, and skipped questions are marked as skipped.

## Goethe B1 writing and speaking in the model test, on Goethe’s official criteria

*Writing and speaking*

### Your three Goethe B1 texts, corrected on your own words

Three texts in one hour is a lot to judge alone. In the **Goethe B1 model test**, you write an email to a friend, your opinion in a guestbook, and a short formal email.

Ask for feedback, and Prepliq checks each text on **Goethe’s four official writing criteria**:

- **Aufgabenerfüllung** — did you do everything the task asks?
- **Kohärenz** — do your sentences connect well?
- **Wortschatz** — the words you choose.
- **Strukturen** — grammar and sentence building.

You get **points for each one**, with the reason for them. Every correction is **marked on your own words**, with the rule and a short reason. So you know what to change **before exam day**.

### Plan together and present, in Goethe B1 Speaking

You can’t practise speaking alone. In the **Goethe B1 model test**, **Prepliq’s partner** plans something with you first. Then you choose one of two topics and give **a presentation** with five slides.

After it, the partner asks you questions about your talk. When a task is done, ask for feedback and Prepliq scores it on **Goethe’s official speaking criteria**. For the presentation, they are:

- **Erfüllung (Präsentation)** — did your talk cover all five slides?
- **Kohärenz** — does your talk hang together?
- **Wortschatz, Strukturen** — your words and your grammar.
- **Erfüllung (Gespräch)** — how you answer the questions.
- **Aussprache** — judged on how clearly your answers come through.

The planning task uses Erfüllung and Interaktion instead, with words and grammar. So your exam-day presentation **isn’t your first one**.

With full access, every Goethe B1 writing task and every speaking task is checked. These are practice scores based on Goethe’s official criteria. They are not marks from Goethe examiners.

## Are you ready for Goethe B1? Each module’s readiness from every mock test

*Exam day readiness*

Your Prepliq dashboard turns every **Goethe B1 model test** you take into one **readiness card**. It counts full exams and single modules alike.

Goethe passes each module on its own, so the card reads **module by module**, with no overall number. It gives you four answers:

- **Goethe B1 readiness by module** — Each Goethe B1 module against **Goethe’s own line**, one by one.
- **Measured modules of the Goethe B1 model test** — How much of the Goethe B1 exam your attempts have **actually covered**.
- **Goethe B1 blind spots** — The Goethe B1 modules you haven’t done yet.
- **Goethe B1 confidence** — How much **evidence** is behind your Goethe B1 estimate. It grows as you cover more modules and take more tests.

Done every Goethe B1 module except Speaking? Then Speaking shows **“Not measured yet”**. Goethe passes each module on its own, so Speaking needs its own practice.

Once every module is measured, the card names each one **still below 60%**. That is Goethe’s own line for passing a module.

Ask yourself: **would I pass this module if I sat it now?** Your own results in the model test give the answer. Readiness is Prepliq’s estimate from your practice, not a Goethe result.

## Unlimited Goethe B1 model tests with unique questions

*New questions, repeats and history*

The more different **Goethe B1 papers** you take, the less your score depends on memory. When each module **holds up on new papers**, you can trust it before exam day.

- **Start a new Goethe B1 mock test** — With full access, Start new test gives you a new Goethe B1 model test with **unique questions**. Take all four modules or a single one, whenever you want.
- **Retake a Goethe B1 test** — Want to redo a Goethe B1 paper? Retake this test brings back **the same questions**, and its result card says it was a retake. An unfinished test waits on your dashboard.
- **Your Goethe B1 history** — Every Goethe B1 test you finish stays in **your history**, with its date, time, score and Passed or Failed. View Report opens that result again.

## Goethe B1 model test: PDF or online with Prepliq?

*PDF or online with Prepliq*

The Goethe-Institut publishes its own **Goethe B1 Modellsatz** as a PDF. It is an official practice paper, and you can print it and write on it.

## What learners say about the mock tests in Prepliq

*In learners’ own words*

Learners tell how they get ready for their exam with Prepliq’s model tests.

- **rayane**: it helps a lot
- **gaby** (Goethe B1): Greetings, it is very important to practice every day and if you make a mistake, try it again until you succeed. That helped me a lot, thank you very much Prepliq. I feel very grateful for this application and I wish everyone good luck.
- **Nerea** (Goethe A2): I have two children, so I could only practice after nine at night. Twenty minutes a day for six weeks and it was enough to feel ready for the exam.
- **Bogdan** (telc B2): A month ago, my practice tests were around 60 percent. Now I am getting over 80 and, for the first time, I feel ready for the real exam.
- **Ilaria** (Goethe C1): I have been preparing for the C1 for three months. What helps me the most is that the feedback tells me what to correct, not just a grade. My results in the exercises finally look like C1 level.
- **Rasha** (telc A2): This was my first exam in a new country and I was afraid of everything. After taking the full exam here once, from beginning to end, most of that fear faded away.
- **Tijana** (Goethe B1): Reading was never my problem, but I would freeze up when someone spoke to me. I listened to the audio recordings here at full speed over and over again, and that solved the problem.
- **Leandro** (TestDaF): I used to panic about the speaking part. After practicing here every day, it feels like a normal conversation now. The real exam is in ten days and that part is the one that scares me the least.
- **Yaryna** (telc B2): I only have my evenings because of my full-time job, so I do one practice section per evening. The exam is next Saturday, and I actually feel ready.
- **Sinan** (Goethe B2): The writing feedback was, to be honest, harsh. However, it kept showing me the same three mistakes, and after correcting them for two weeks, my letters became much better.
- **Wassim** (TestDaF): A friend told me about Prepliq, it helped him before his exam. I find it useful too.
- **Analyn** (telc B2): ChatGPT recommended me Prepliq when I asked how to practise for the exam. Thank goodness this website exist.
- **Mariana** (Goethe B1): With the PDF exam models, I could only check my reading and listening comprehension answers. No one could tell me if my letter was correct or listen to me speak. Now I finally receive corrections on what I write and say, and those were my weakest parts.
- **Tekla** (telc B2): I did the same practice test so many times that I knew the answers by heart. That says nothing about your level. Now I am practicing with questions I have never seen before, and when my score goes up, I know it is real.
- **Imane** (Goethe B1): Studying alone was the hardest part for me. Then I kept seeing that other people were practicing at that very moment, someone finished a full test in the middle of the night, and someone else improved their score. It seems simple, but it kept me going.
- **Parisa** (Goethe B2): What scared me was not German, but the exam itself. After a few complete practice runs here, I know all the sections, what comes first and how much time I have for each one.
- **Almir** (telc B1): For my citizenship application, I need a B1 certificate, and the deadline is close. I practiced here every day after work. My last three practice exams were above the passing threshold, now I just want to pass the real one.
- **Erind** (telc B1): The telc exam costs almost 200 euros, and if you fail, you have to pay the whole fee again. I waited until my test results were stable to book the date. Now, the money part doesn't scare me anymore.
- **Nikhil** (TestDaF): I need the certificate for my Masters. My problem was always running out of time, so I kept doing full timed exams here until that stopped happening.
- **Kinga** (telc B1): I failed the telc B1 on my first attempt. This time, I practiced the speaking part here almost every evening. My retake exam is in two weeks, and I'm not as nervous as I was the first time.

The module runs on its own clock, and its result **counts toward your readiness card**, like all four together. So you can work on your weakest module first.

### Is the Goethe B1 model test online better than the PDF?

Yes, for writing and speaking: Prepliq’s Goethe B1 model test **reads your three texts and hears your presentation**. With the PDF, you judge them yourself.

Prepliq’s Goethe B1 model test is **practice, not the official exam**: the same four modules, criteria and module pass rule as Goethe, but no certificate.

The Goethe-Institut’s PDF is a fixed paper to print. Prepliq’s Goethe B1 model test follows the same official format online: your three texts are checked, you plan and present with a partner, and you get **a new paper whenever you want**.

### Does every Goethe B1 mock test in Prepliq have new questions?

Yes, with full access every new Goethe B1 model test in Prepliq has **unique questions**, and Start new test gives you one as often as you like.

### When do I see the answers in the Prepliq Goethe B1 model test?

You choose when you start a new Goethe B1 model test in Prepliq: **Instant** marks each answer right or wrong as soon as you answer.

**Exam Mode** hides every answer until you hand in, like the real Goethe B1 exam. Instant and Exam Mode are Prepliq’s own. Learn with Instant, then use Exam Mode to see how each module would go on exam day.

### How does Goethe B1 Reading work in the Prepliq model test?

In Prepliq’s Goethe B1 model test, you practise all **five Reading parts** online, with each text next to its questions.

The texts are a blog, press texts, ads, reader letters and a text with rules. You answer true or false or a, b or c, match ads to situations, or decide if a writer is **for or against** something.

Prepliq checks every answer against the key, so you see which Goethe B1 Reading part still costs you points.

### How does Goethe B1 Listening work in the Prepliq model test?

In Prepliq’s Goethe B1 model test, you practise all **four Listening parts** online: short texts, a talk, a conversation and a discussion.

In the last part, you decide **who says what**. Each recording plays next to its tasks, and Show transcript lets you read the recording after you answer. So you see what you missed before exam day.

### How are my three Goethe B1 writing tasks checked in the Prepliq model test?

In Prepliq’s Goethe B1 model test, you write all **three Writing tasks**, and Prepliq checks each one on Goethe’s four official writing criteria.

You write an email to a friend (about 80 words), your opinion in a guestbook (about 80) and a short formal email (about 40).

The criteria are Aufgabenerfüllung, Kohärenz, Wortschatz, Strukturen. You get points for each, with the reason for them, and **every correction marked on your own words**, so you know what to fix before exam day.

### Can I practise the Goethe B1 presentation in the Prepliq model test?

Yes, in Prepliq’s Goethe B1 model test you give your presentation to **a partner**, with five slides to guide your talk.

You pick one of two topics, and then the partner **asks you questions** about your talk. Before the presentation, you plan something together in Part 1.

Prepliq scores both speaking parts on **Goethe’s official speaking criteria**. So your exam-day presentation isn’t your first one.

### How is the Goethe B1 model test scored in Prepliq?

Prepliq judges your Goethe B1 model test on **Goethe’s own pass rule**: each module on its own, out of 100.

Each module needs **60 of 100** to pass. Goethe gives no total for the four modules, so your Prepliq result shows **a Passed or Failed for each one**.

### Can a strong Goethe B1 module make up for a weak one in the Prepliq model test?

No, in Prepliq’s Goethe B1 model test each module gets **its own Passed or Failed**, the way Goethe does it.

So strong Reading can’t save weak Speaking, and **each module keeps its own Passed or Failed** in the result. Until you practise a module in Prepliq, it shows as a **blind spot** on your readiness card.

### Can I see my wrong answers in the Prepliq Goethe B1 model test?

Yes, **Review Answers** in Prepliq opens your whole Goethe B1 model test with your answers in place, and Review Section opens one module.

Each question shows **your answer next to the correct one**, and skipped questions are marked as skipped. So you know each mistake before exam day.

### How does the Goethe B1 model test in Prepliq show if I am ready?

Your Prepliq **readiness card** shows how ready each Goethe B1 module is, based on your own Goethe B1 model tests.

The card shows how much of the exam you have measured and which modules are **blind spots**. Once every module is measured, the card names each one **still below 60%**, Goethe’s own pass line.

The readiness card is Prepliq’s estimate from your practice, not a Goethe result. It shows **which module to practise next**.

### What does confidence mean on my readiness card in the Prepliq Goethe B1 model test?

Confidence on your Prepliq Goethe B1 readiness card shows **how much evidence** is behind the estimate.

Confidence grows as your practice tests cover more modules and as you take more tests. Higher confidence means the estimate is **better supported**, not higher.
