    Friends, I took the A 27 German exam held at Antalya Artı Foreign Language Center on December 2014, 1 by the Goethe Institute and I wanted to share it here to help you. Firstly :

    1. How did I register? I went to Antalya Artı Language Course and they told me what to do for the exam. I was entitled to take the exam in return for my ID photocopy and a deposit of 270 TL, and they set a date for December 27, 2014. This exam is held on the last Saturday of every month in Antalya.

    2. What time does the exam start? Exam hour starts at 11:00, but it is useful to be ready there 1 hour before.

    3. How can Exam Preparation be? It may be very helpful for those who have no knowledge to go, but I did not go on a course with my knowledge as much as I learned from daily life. I have not worked from any book either. I found the almancax website on the internet and the questions that come out here are already enough. I just took advantage of this site.

    4. There was a group of about 30 people to take the exam. and everyone was excited but get rid of the excitement because it's a very simple test

    5. How many parts does the exam consist of? Before the exam, the classes are distributed in 6 terms. A teacher comes from Goethe, a German teacher who lives in Izmir, but originally the Turkish answer booklet is distributed first, and if you want it to come with cargo, including passing the exam, they give the cargo bag and write the name, address, phone, and give the cargo bag to the officer. Then the question booklets are dispensed at exactly 11:00.

    First episode HÖREN (LISTENING)
    In this section, there are 15 questions, for each question, there are questions coming out of the audio played on the loudspeaker, for each question, some are listened to 1 times, some are played once, and questions related to these are asked. Say you want to listen to the sound coming out of the speaker, let them listen to a little bit from the beginning because the sound is muffled because the speakers are out of adjustment. You can adjust it. Some questions are asked in the form of abc, some questions are asked in the form of correct.also, the number of questions you have made in this section is 2 in total, the maximum score you will get 1, the score of each question you make 15. In the listening part, a few listenings from the train station
    From the phone conversation between 2 people, a few recitals and a few recitals between 2 people are asked. Concentrate well while listening.

    Chapter 2 LESEN (READING)

    There are 15 questions again in this section. There are 2 advertisements in the newspaper. It asks a question at the beginning. You mark which one of the advertisements works with this question. Answer option. 2 ab side.
    There may be an online advertisement outside of the newspaper or a short reading piece is given. You will answer the correct one among this piece. Remember the number of questions you make in this section is 15 in total, the maximum score you will get is 25, the score for each question you make is 1.66.

    Chapter 3  SCHREIBEN (WRITING)

    This section consists of two parts.
    The first part is FORMULAR i.e. gap filling
    There is a part of the subject above, for example, your friend wants to help you with his wife, there is a daughter, a man born in Moscow at the age of 1, whose mother and father's names are written, for example, a sportlehrer woman, a hausfrau ydu address of this family with a zip code. He has to go to school and go to school before noon. With this information, there is a half-filled form below, here there are 7 empty places;
    Man's profession: Sportlehrer
    Zip code of their place of residence: 078215
    Child's place of birth: Moskau
    Time of departure for the child: 08: 00-12: 00

    Chapter Two LETTER

    It may be a section that most of you are afraid of, but there is no need to be afraid. You will write 3-4 sentences, a title, a date, a greeting, name and surname.

    The letter in the exam I took was as follows; Market Cent is looking for a shop assistant in the newspaper. Write a letter stating that you would like to apply for a job.
    Indicate why you are writing a letter:
    Introduce yourself :
    Find out the working hours:
    this was the letter friends, now from the letter writing rules Sehr Geehrte Damen und Herren we have written at the beginning Write the date of that day in the upper right corner write the letter yourself as you wish at the end of the summer
    Ich bitte um Antwort
    Many greetings
    Write your name and surname
    this job will be done. Never be afraid it's not too hard

    The maximum number of points you will get from these 3 sections is 75, and we came to the last section, which is 25 points, and the score of this section is 25 points.

    4. chapter SCPREHEN (SPEECH)

    You are included in the class as 3 or 4 people, I stayed in the last group, for example, it seemed to me that they took the people who went to their course ahead, because I entered the last group and we did not attend the course in all of us.

    now this section consists of 2 sections 1. section introducing yourself: Very easy section with 10 points

    NAME, ALTER, LAND, WOHNUNG, SCPRECHEN, BERUF, HOBBY

    Let's do it in order İch bin hakan M… İch bin 33 jahre alt ich komme aus der turkeı ich wochne in antalya ich scprehe englısh und deutsch mein beruf ist fotograf meine hobbies sind scwimmen und rad fahren 8 points in your pocket as soon as you say this. Now, it will ask you to spell your name, surname, postal code, and your spouse's name in a few places. For example, it will ask me to spell out the postal code and my spouse's name. That's 2 points for a total of 10 points.

    Now it's time for the cards, maybe there are 50-60 cards in front of them. He made them 10 with a rubber band and put them in front of you. I asked my question anyway, it was correct and the next plane next to me was supposed to answer I asked what time is the next plane? Haben Sie ball asked the classic question. Friend said JA and grabbed the score, then he took the card, took BLEISTIFHT, asked the question, Haben Sie, I gave the answer, and we got the points. We took the 2nd round and these cards did not write my name, they just had a picture. We asked me Brot out, the other card went out to the lady, the other friend, the glass came out, the question was asked. AS WILL BE ASKED. I said he was going to open wine to me, hoo, I swear yuhh I set this up with so many cards GEBEN SIE MIR BITTE FLASCHE OFFNENT, he said bravo. I was still confused at that moment when I knew how to open wine. Anyway, the other lady came out on the wochenen and the other friend did not smoke. and the exam is over

    Friends, I hope that what I wrote will be useful to some of them, because the forum is being viewed to help a little bit from the stress before the exam, but there are old-dated posts, nobody can benefit from it, so the exam is over, I came home with the car and I wanted to share it immediately while the information was fresh.

    It was said that the exam is really easy exam results will be announced within 3-4 days, but since I am sure that I am over 60, I am not very curious.

    respect to all.

     
    Have shared really useful information on health in the hands of siblings. I will take the exam on January 24 at the same place. As you said, many old dated posts. but your sharing will be useful, thank you very much ..

    friends, I took the exam once, the problem is very tight in the listening section, also in the letter section, a short question is asked and a long answer is expected
    When I look at some questions, I cannot go without saying how is this a1 and a2.
    For example, in the listening section, the misleading question is very quitting. If you do not understand what you are listening to, you will leave it to chance.
    the theme in the speaking part is sport related to the vocabulary theme sprechkurs vocabulary course theme wocchenen word sonntag these phrases are the first to say
    It is ridiculous to use both of them in one sentence.

    Hello friends, I also took the exam on February 6th and after studying at home for 1 month, I passed the exam with 71 points. Of course, when I took the exam, it was very difficult for me to listen, because very close conversations, people get confused, I think you should put your ear right there... I got lost in the letter, it was very difficult, it was not descriptive at all, I put my name and surname in a title. I was a little silly :D But they gave 10 points, try to get through this section with the theme of the last section, you can get points from here, but the people in your face may ask you silly questions because they don't know, I came across this, but the teachers intervened in the right place, I could not ask in 1 question because I could not find the word I got 21 points but mine He went from excitement to stress all the time, I can only tell you that you will do the stress, the boredom, the excitement, you will do it to the friend there, for sure, do not listen to them saying that you did this right wrong, it will be nothing but to spoil your morale. It was very bad because I was very bad I did not win, but I looked I passed the exam :D By the way, I took the exam in Istanbul, don't be afraid, trust yourself and study constantly, I didn't go to the course, as I said again... We spoke German at the consulate on the term and the woman said good job, continue your German. Don't forget to pray, may God help all my friends who will take the exam..

    Friends, I am taking the exam tomorrow. Right now I'm buried in letters and cards. God willing, I will be rewarded for my 1 month's labor. May God help and help everyone...

    I will share information in detail after the exam, guys.

    Best regards. Okey:)

    Hi guys, as I said yesterday, I have taken my exam today, on April 2, 2015. I will explain in detail, so that someone else does not make the mistakes we have made and does not get excited for nothing. A friend of ours above tried to share and let me explain to everyone who will enter general information.

    First of all, I prepared for the exam in the course. I took a 20-day intensive course. I was attending a course in the morning, coming to work at noon and had to work without permission. I was having a hard time and I was worried, in case all this effort goes to waste if I do not pass. Now the result of my exam is not yet clear, but I still saw it not worth being worried. Of course, I say that it is not worth it because I work day and night, otherwise it is not an exam to be taken lightly. There is no such thing as who will pass, everything is in your own hands. Lots of repetition, lots of conversation and plenty of writing. The rest is coming by itself. There are 12-13 standard letters, try these letters, study themed, banned and dignitarian cards, the rest is a bit of luck. Let's talk about the exam;

    Today at 12:30, we were ready to take the exam at the Goethe building in Ankara. We were first placed in classrooms after checking identity in order of surname. There are an average of 10-12 people in each class. Then the German supervisor came to the class, introduced herself, explained the details of the exam, was very friendly, but there is no need to help or not. After signing a few papers that we took the exam. He opened the sealed envelope, took out the questions, distributed it to all of us and had it checked.

    FIRST CHAPTER HÖREN (LISTENING)

    In this section, we have 15 recitals, 4 of which are announcements, 11 of which are usually two German speeches and we give the desired answer. As I said above, this is a section that is completely left to chance because it is very difficult for someone who is at A1 level to understand and respond to listening. Because they give 3 chic, 3 chic in the conversations. For example, they talk about where to meet, one says Theater, the other says Cinema, the other says Park. They make the last decision, but you inevitably miss. I caught 2-3 of them. If I say I shook the others, it is ok. You have 50% chance of the annotations. If they do not step on the negative statement by saying nicht and kein, you will shake it again. After the Hören is over, you get behind the paper and go to the Lesen section.

    CHAPTER TWO LESEN (READING)

    What we understand from what we read in this section. They give sample text above, we are expected to answer as correct or incorrect below. luck is 50% again, but this part is very important. A section based entirely on vocabulary. It is possible to understand from a single word in the problem whether it is true or false. In the essays, this was the part that I fell the most on because if you evaluate this part well, it is a full score store and it is simpler than listening and writing. You just need to know the vocabulary and sentence patterns here. Often practice verbs for this section. Words such as Urlaub such as Ausflug such as Bestellen, Übernachten etc. are very important. Here are 15 questions. Note that each question is correct 1 x 1.66. 57 is a very clean score in an examination system with 58-1.66.

    CHAPTER THREE SCHREİBEN (WRITING)

    This was the part that scared me the most, as it does most people. In this section, vocabulary is again very important. We are expected to fill out forms and write letters. While filling out the form, they place 5 questions below, adhering to the text above. In today's exam, they wrote the story of a boy who went from Korea to Germany. In the questions below, when? To where? From where? How many days? and payment method? was asked. The answer to the question already asked is hidden above. For this, my advice to you is to read the form and write as much as you understand in Turkish. Then think about what might be asked and paste the answer. I didn't pay attention to the form because I thought I would do it anyway. I have 2 mistakes. A text is also given in the letter. 3 question patterns are placed underneath and we are asked to write a letter in response to those questions. In today's letter, I was asked to write a letter to Frau Laura, that is, the lady Laura, for which I wanted to have a dinner party with 30 people. Warum ? Why are you typing. Welches Essen? Which dishes? Prince? Price. It was a very easy letter because it did not contain past tense or future tense. My eyes lit up when I saw it. There were already 2-3 letters that I was stuck on, if they were to come out, I would have a hard time. I downloaded the why part exactly by changing one word at the top. Denn ich habe Geburstag. Welches Essen haben sie? Was kostet das Essen? Ich bitte um Antwor! Viele Grüsse! I said his name and surname and finished the incident. I got through this section completely except for two mistakes in the form.

    After these 3 chapters are over. You are taken in groups of 4 according to the surname order. Everyone is waiting in the classroom. Meanwhile, stop all these excitement, stress, fear. I did it like that, folks, I said, `` We will not do what we will do, we will talk, we will talk about it, we will talk, I said, and four people entered.

    SECTION FOUR SPRECHEN (SPEECH)

    It was the part I enjoyed the most in the 2.5-hour exam. We went inside. Two people were sitting opposite us, a man and a woman. They were very friendly, humorous and understanding. We laughed a lot. There were many jokes while giving examples. Our identities stood in front of them. He looked at me and asked me to code the name of my birthplace. Then he asked for Ankara's area code. I said it too. He said you have a child. I answered him too. Then I counted my name, where I came from, where I live, what language I speak, my profession and my hobbies. We had a small acquaintance. If it was true they would say 6-7 points or something for this section. Then we switched to cards, the man showed the example, and Reisen and Trinken und Essen came out of themed cards. When I saw these, I was relieved that they were the themes I mastered very much. Reisen drew the card in front of me. Very simply, Reisen sie? said.  :) I said Ja ich Chief, the points are in the pocket. Luckily I took it, or our information came out. Wo ist İnformationen? I said. Neben dem Classe said, we got the points. Zug appeared on the second card. Reisen sie mit dem Zug? Said. I said Ja ich reise mit dem Zug. I took it, bus came out. Exactly I asked, Reisen sie mit dem Bus? There was no answer, only I got points. Vegetables and Restaurant came out for me for eating and drinking. We asked them, too, I pulled them in full. It's time for the Ricalı cards. I said come on, bismillah, I took a picture of a computer open. I was supposed to say can you turn this off. Können sie bitte computer ausmachen? The German said true. An apple is on the second card. Können sie bitte ein weight aphel geben? I said it was true again. He could not ask a question in front of me, the German teacher asked him, I did not know, I did not understand, more precisely, I passed, only the score went from there.

    The exam was over and we left the building with a very big load removed from us. Even the desperate ones were very happy because this test was not a very difficult test, but not a simple one. Employees get their rights, friends. Remember. I can not do it. Work and earn. Even if I miss the score to be announced tomorrow, I will write it here.  :D  Good luck to all.

    Come on safely.

    Greetings

    Exam 29 I entered in Izmir in September and passed with 77 points.

    Without going to Kursa, I prepared myself in 1 months with just a few resources.
    I would recommend Sedat Ünver's "German Family Consolidation German Exam Preparation Book", especially since the exam will be prepared without leaving the course.
    https://www.kitapsec.com/Products/Almanya-Aile-Birlesimi-Almanca-Sinavi-Hazirlik-Kitabi-Merkez-Akademi-Yayinlari-29025
    It is a book intended to prepare directly for the exam, I used this resource extensively.

    I used Memrise and Duolingo applications to download and work on the web or smartphone to improve vocabulary.
    Memrise practice has different courses at different levels for learning or improving language. I have completed only the "A1 Preparation for Exam" course from this practice.
    https://www.memrise.com/course/381140/a1-snavna-hazrlk/
    This course I completed is focused solely on learning vocabulary and its content consists of the words found in the A1 exam. Also, I was repeating the words I learned in this course every day. In this way, I was constantly repeating the words and making them catchy.

    Duolingo in general contains basic information such as daily conversation, new vocabulary learning and grammar structure.
    https://tr.duolingo.com/
    Both are free applications, just be a member.
    Another recommendation is that you download the exam samples shared by the Goethe Institute and test yourself by taking the exam as it is. There are 3 exam tests, I have solved them again a few times.
    https://www.goethe.de/de/spr/kup/prf/prf/gzsd1/ueb
    Finally, Goethe Inst. Knowing the meanings of the words in the "Word List" file for the A1 exam on the page provides a great advantage in the exam.
    https://www.goethe.de/pro/relaunch/prf/tr/A1_SD1_Wortliste_02.pdf
    Almost all of the words found on the Word List will be in Turkish after you learn the words found in the "Preparation for A1" course of Memrise.
    Daily vocabulary is very important again. The more you do it again, the more permanent it will be in memory.

    Below I have shared the points I got from each section.

    Hören: 11,62 Punkte  
    Lesen: 21,58 Punkte  
    Schreiben: 20,75 Punkte  
    Sprechen: 23,24 Punkte
    Gesamtpunktzahl: 77 Punkte Note: befriedigend

    What did I do on the exam?

    1.Hören – listening:
    
First of all, during the exam preparation process, no TV, series, movies, music, etc. I have never had such work. I can say I entered before I was prepared for this section. As you can see from the score, I did not understand much. :) I made a focus on hearing the words given in the chapters in the dialogue, which is usually in the test during the exam. However, at least two of the words in the chapters have often been diluted in the dialogue. This was the part I thought was the worst when I got out of the exam. You did not mislead me :)

    2.Lesen – reading:
    
Thanks to the Memrise application, I entered the exam thinking that my vocabulary was not bad. As a matter of fact, I saw the benefit of this in the reading part and I easily answered the questions confidently.

    3.Schreiben- write:

    Fill in the form: As far as I remember, the subject mentioned a person who moved from Berlin to Berlin (information such as name, surname, date of birth, place of birth, occupation etc.) and this person needs a book I go to the library but I have to fill in the form to register here so I can log in. We will help him.
    
Blank fields in the form; this person's surname, date of birth, city, profession and the name of the book he is looking for.
    I think I got full marks from this section.

    Writing a letter: The letter question asked in the exam I have taken is exactly what I shared below. As can be seen in my answer, it is very simple and plain, I adapted the given subject to myself and wrote it almost the same.


    Sie haben Ihre Freundin Anna lange nicht gesehen und möchten mit ihr essen gehen.
    Schreiben Sie ihr:
    -Warum schreiben Sie? 
    -Wo essen?
    -treffen wann?

    Liebe Anna,
    Ich habe dich lange nicht gesehen. Können wir gehen zusammen am Samstag um 18 Uhr im Restaurant essen?
    Wir können uns um 17 Uhr im Bahnhof treffen.
    Ich warte auf deine Antwort.
    Herzlich Grube.

    4.Sprechen – speech: This part was the easiest part. As I share below, I got points with simple questions and formulaic, conventional answers.
    First of all, we introduced ourselves in the first stage.
    After that, we drew the cards in stage 2 order. I pulled the "Getrank" and "Pause" cards and my question for both was very simple. "Haben sie getrank?" and "Wann ist pause in deine Schule?" was in the form.
    The last part was the request step; where I pictured "money" (5 wrote euro and 1 cent) and "book" cards in the picture. When I saw the picture of the money on the card I took, it did not come to my mind that the meaning of the word was German and I used the 5 euro picture on the card to ask the question :) My questions were simple and the same for these two cards. "Können sie mir bitte 5 euro geben?" And "Können sie mir bitte ein buch geben?"
    The most important point for this section is to be absolutely calm and to introduce ourselves, ask and answer questions. When the excitement is done, it is getting harder and harder to build simple sentences. You even get to the point where you have to ask a question. 4 people were the ones who confused the question to whom we asked the exciting part of the conversation we entered. I tried to ask the question by returning to my friend who was going to ask me a question, while other people tried to ask the question back to the person who was asking her question. Fortunately, the chaplains (2 coach) were helpful in helping people with good intentions and charitable people to ask questions or ask questions (such as forgetting to ask or asking for help).
    I also talk about a situation like this; the person who would ask me the question did not understand the question and he took the teacher's card and asked himself the question.
    I think it's a handicap that hokers ask questions. Because the teacher who asked me question asked a question with an accent and a little adornment. I understood that the verb in question was "koche", and I used the answer "ja, ich koche" answer as the answer, without knowing what I was positively responding to.

    The general idea of ​​the exam is not an exaggerated, difficult exam. Working with some system is enough to pass easily. Our goal is not to take 100 and complete it without error. You do not need to know everything to get 60.
    Finally, you will determine your working style and decide how and how long you will work. The internet environment helps you find resources as much as you are eager to learn and research. When you say that I should prepare better, you can find quite good videos when you search for German family reunification exam / lessons on YouTube or you can find various free language training sites when you search on google.
    I passed this test thanks to my repeated words.
    I think the grammar topic is a simple memorization pattern for an A1 beginner exam. In other words, studying grammar for a total of 4-5 hours will be enough to make sentences after knowing the word.



    I hope it was useful. I wish my success to friends who will come to the exam.
