ÖSD · ÖSD ZERTIFIKAT DEUTSCH A1
öSD A1 — ÖSD Zertifikat deutsch A1
Two full ÖSD A1 mocks matched to the REAL Austrian splits — Lesen and Hören are worth 30 points each, Schreiben just 15. Prepping with an even-split Goethe paper half-prepares you for this exam.
THE PAPER — VERIFIED FORMAT
ÖSD is the only A1 body that certifies modules separately: pass the written module and the oral module within one year at the same center and both count toward the full certificate.
Lesen · Reading
25 MIN · 30 PTS
3 tasks · 16 items
Three reading exercises for general and detailed understanding of simple authentic texts — brief notices, short notes, announcements from Austria, Germany and Switzerland.
Z.B.A Vienna notice „Der Laden bleibt am Freitag geschlossen“ → who/what/when items.
Hören · Listening
10 MIN · 30 PTS
3 tasks · 15 items
Brief, simple conversations on everyday topics in standard German (Austrian, German or Swiss recordings), each feeding a comprehension exercise.
Z.B.A short dialogue about a bakery order → tick the items the customer actually buys.
Schreiben · Writing
20 MIN · 15 PTS
2 tasks
Task 1: fill out a form. Task 2: write a simple personal email. Evaluated against the published ÖSD criteria sheet.
Z.B.Registration form for a language course — Name, Adresse, Beruf, Telefonnummer — then a short sign-up email.
Sprechen · Speaking
10 MIN · 25 PTS
3 tasks · +10 min prep
Briefly introduce yourself, describe an image, and perform a simulated dialogue — the only A1 speaking with preparation time, and worth a quarter of the total.
Z.B.Photo of a market stall → describe what you see, then role-play buying fruit with the examiner.
