Like it says, I took the Einbürgerungstest this past weekend. The questions are a mix of things that feel pretty obvious (which war lasted from 1939-1945) and things that require memorization (Which chancellor was responsible for the Ostverträge?). In a lot of ways, it feels like another language exam: if you understand German well enough to understand the questions, you can probably pass.
We officially had an hour, but I was done within 8 minutes, and I wasn’t the first :).
One step closer to citizenship!
Glückwunsch! For me, a study app helped a lot with the memorization. I used “Leben in Deutschland Test” from the Google Play Store.
I used Anki, which I’ve used many times in the past for other things. Someone already made a flashcard deck for the Einbürgerungstest, and you could even filter out questions for the other Bundesländer. I was pretty happy with it.
