Official Goethe-Zertifikat B1 practice · Adults

Open Goethe's interactive adult B1 model.

Direct modules: Reading / Lesen · Listening / Hören · Writing / Schreiben · Speaking / Sprechen.

The listening page contains the original clips. Reading and listening include answer checking. Writing and speaking provide the official tasks; opening them does not provide examiner marking of your own performance.

Official set 1: adult Modellsatz

Original complete paper, including the examiner section.

For the full listening track, open the official preparation hub, go to B1 Erwachsene → Prüfungstraining 1, and use its audio player. Keep this set paired with its own audio. Goethe also provides a speaking demonstration on the hub.

The model's introduction states that task types, number of items and time limits correspond to the real exam. That is the relevant format match; the live exam will not necessarily use these questions. The online model above is another presentation of this set, not a third independent test.

Official set 2: adult Übungssatz

Original complete practice paper.

On the same official preparation hub, go to B1 Erwachsene → Prüfungstraining 2 for the matching full listening track. This is a separate practice set from the Modellsatz.

Keep the distinction clear

The Goethe hub labels these resources as free exam practice. The original questions, audio, solutions and assessment material remain on Goethe's site; this file collects direct entry points rather than copying or rewriting the papers. No trial subscription or paid app is needed for these links.

The pages and paper links were checked; full media playback and every browser control were not tested in this revision. Free public access is not a blanket licence to redistribute the assets in another app. Keeping the originals linked also avoids introducing transcription errors.
