The Prøve i Dansk exam format covers four levels of Danish, each with its own paper. Knowing the structure is the first step to a confident pass.
The levels
- Prøve i Dansk 1 – A2 · Prøve i Dansk 2 – B1 · Prøve i Dansk 3 – B2
- Studieprøven – C1 (university entrance)
The skills tested
Prøve i Dansk 1–3 assess reading (Læseforståelse), writing (Skriftlig fremstilling) and oral communication (Mundtlig kommunikation). Studieprøven also includes listening (Lytteforståelse).
How it is graded
Danish exams use a graded scale rather than a simple pass/fail, and you need a sufficient result in each part. Practising each section in the real format under timed conditions is the surest route.
