# How is the telc exam conducted?

Both parts of the exam take place on the same day and there will be a break between the two parts. Please keep the entire day clear to make sure you have enough time.

Partial exams (only written or only oral) can also be booked separately. You may retake the full exam or individual parts as often as you like, but additional exam fees will apply each time.

You will receive **detailed information** about the exam procedure by email no later than **3 days before the exam**. Please keep the entire exam day free, as there will be a break between the written and oral parts.

❗Please arrive at the DeutschAkademie **on time** on the day of your exam. Unfortunately, we cannot admit you to the exam if you arrive late or do not bring a valid official photo ID.
