If I passed one part of the exam, must I retake the entire exam?
If you have not passed the exam, you can repeat it. If you have passed one part, you do not have to repeat the entire exam. telc exams consist of two parts:
- the written part and
- the oral part.
The exams must always be taken in full. You must therefore complete both parts of the exam.
You pass a part of the exam if you have achieved at least 60% of the points. To receive a certificate, you must have achieved 60% in both parts of the exam.
If you have not passed the exam, you can repeat it. If you have passed one part, you do not have to repeat the entire exam in some exam formats (telc B1, telc B2, telc C1 Hochschule). You only need to take the part of the exam that you did not pass. The part that you did pass can be credited.
Example: You passed the oral part of the telc B2 exam, but did not pass the written part. If you repeat the written part within 12 months, you can apply for the oral part that you have already passed to be credited. If you then pass the written part when you repeat the exam, you will receive a normal certificate as a result of the credit.
Important: In order to be credited, the partial exam must be repeated within twelve months of taking the first exam (date of issue of the results sheet).
Repeating individual subtests is not permitted. Credit is always given to the most recently achieved exam result.
Costs: Even if you repeat only a part of the exam, you need to pay the full exam fees at did deutsch-institut (telc B1: 190 € / telc B2: 190 € / telc C1 Hochschule: 215 €)
