Detailed Information about the Telc B2 Reading German Exam

The B2 Reading section is an important part of the written German exam at the B2 level. This component assesses the ability to understand and interpret complex texts from a variety of topics. The exam is particularly relevant for individuals preparing for academic or professional settings in German-speaking environments or those needing official proof of their language skills. It is offered as part of Telc certifications, which are recognized in many countries.

Purpose and Significance of the Exam

This exam is aimed at learners who can express themselves confidently in German and understand texts of intermediate to advanced difficulty. The B2 Reading exam is often required:

  • for admission to universities or vocational schools
  • when applying for jobs in German-speaking companies
  • as part of professional development programs
  • for naturalization or recognition of qualifications abroad

Structure of the B2 Reading Exam

The reading comprehension tasks include various types of texts such as newspaper articles, blog posts, emails, charts, or information brochures. Several sub-tasks are presented, each requiring different reading strategies – for example, selective reading, global understanding, or detailed comprehension.

Duration and Procedure

  • Total time for the reading section: approximately 90 minutes
  • 4 to 5 reading tasks, each with multiple statements or questions
  • Completed in one continuous exam session

How Is It Assessed?

Answers are evaluated centrally. Each correct answer earns a point, although some tasks carry more weight than others. Thorough preparation with targeted exercises is crucial to build comprehension skills for complex texts. Effective time management is also essential.

Required Results to Pass

To pass the overall B2 exam, a minimum score must be achieved in each section – including reading. Typically, this threshold is 60 percent of the maximum possible points. Only candidates who pass all sections receive the complete certificate.
