Short answer
Your Goethe A1 result usually appears in your My Goethe.de account about 4 weeks after the exam. Log in with the account you used to book, open your exams and look for the result. You pass with 60 out of 100. If you didn't pass, you can take the exam again; there is no limit on attempts.
When does the A1 result come out?
In Pakistan, results usually arrive about 4 weeks (20 working days) after the exam. There is no need to visit anyone or call: the result appears online in the same My Goethe.de account you used to book your seat.
How do I check my result?
- Go to the official My Goethe.de login page.
- Log in with the email and password of the account you booked with.
- Open the exams section and select your Goethe-Zertifikat A1 exam.
- Check your points for each part and your overall result.
Only use the official Goethe website to check results. Don't share your login details with anyone who offers to check or speed up a result for you.
What does my score mean?
The exam has four parts (listening, reading, writing and speaking), each worth 25 points. You pass with 60 or more out of 100. Your points per part show where you were strong and where you lost marks, which is useful if you need to take the exam again. For more on the format, see the Goethe A1 exam guide.
What if I didn't pass?
You can book the exam again; there is no limit on attempts. Look at your points per part first. If you lost most marks in one part, spend your practice time there before booking the next date. If you need the certificate for a spouse visa, remember it must be under one year old when you apply, so pick a new date that still fits your visa plan.
Booking again works the same way as the first time: see how to book the Goethe A1 exam in Pakistan. If you want focused help on your weak parts, our A1 German course online includes mock exams with feedback on writing and speaking.
