The written part is assessed against four criteria: task completion, coherence, vocabulary and structures. In Rilke you get a score out of 100, the reasons for each criterion and the specific mistakes with corrections — your first correction is free.
It is fixed for each part: Teil 1: 1× (reading time 90 s); Teil 2: 2× (reading time 60 s); Teil 3: 1× (reading time 90 s); Teil 4: 2×. No recording is played more often than that.
65 minutes for 5 parts with 30 tasks in total.
The speaking exam is taken in pairs or groups. In Rilke the app plays your partner, so you can practise the dialogue parts on your own as well.
