The B2 Grammar Structures exam is a key component of the Telc German language test. It assesses the ability to use German grammar correctly and appropriately in written form. Especially when dealing with formal text types such as emails, applications, or professional documents, this section reveals how confidently candidates handle structure, vocabulary, and text logic.
This part of the test consists of gap-fill exercises in which appropriate words or grammatical forms must be inserted into a given text. The tasks cover core areas of German grammar, test targeted vocabulary usage, and assess understanding of sentence structure, text cohesion, and stylistic appropriateness. The texts are based on realistic everyday and professional situations.
The exam is administered by Telc, a certified examination body for German as a foreign language. Telc GmbH cooperates with licensed exam centers across many countries and ensures consistent quality standards and fair, transparent evaluation.
This part of the exam is particularly useful for:
This section provides a detailed assessment of advanced written language proficiency. The results show whether the test taker can express themselves clearly, fluently, and in a well-structured manner – skills that are essential in many professional or academic settings. Grammar Structures are thus an important indicator of practical language use in real-life and work contexts.
The Grammar Structures section usually takes 30 to 40 minutes and consists of three parts:
The exam is written and may be taken either on paper or digitally depending on the exam center.
Compared to the B1 version, the B2 level focuses more on sentence complexity, varied vocabulary, and appropriate style. While B1 centers around simple daily language, B2 expects candidates to use more advanced constructions, context-dependent phrasing, and a nuanced vocabulary. Text coherence – how logically and stylistically consistent a text is – plays a greater role in evaluation.
Scoring is done according to an official answer key. Depending on the exam center, correction may be done digitally or manually. To pass this section, candidates typically need at least 60 percent of the total possible points. The score contributes to the overall result of the Telc B2 exam.
