Prøve i Dansk 2 exam-day guide
Prøve i Dansk 2 · Prepare for the day ahead.
Your checklist
Bring valid photo ID
Bring the original photo identification document you used when registering. Confirm with the provider which document types are accepted and whether a copy is permitted; do not assume a driving licence is acceptable.
Check your admission letter or registration confirmation
Bring the confirmation showing your test date, time, and location, or note the exact details beforehand. Confirm with the provider whether a printed copy is required or a digital version is acceptable.
Arrive at the correct test centre with time to spare
Plan to arrive well before the start time so you can find the room, register, and settle. The exact arrival deadline and late-entry policy vary by provider, so confirm them with the provider.
Know which parts of the exam you are sitting
Prøve i Dansk 2 normally covers reading, listening, written production, and oral communication. Confirm with the provider which modules apply to you and in what order they are taken on the day.
Bring permitted writing materials only
Bring pens or pencils only if the provider allows them. Many centres supply materials and prohibit bringing your own; confirm with the provider what is permitted in the room.
Leave phone and smart devices switched off and stored
Phones, smartwatches, and other devices must normally be switched off and put away during the test. Confirm with the provider where they should be stored and what happens if a device is found.
Prepare for the oral part
The oral test usually involves a conversation or presentation based on material given at the centre. Confirm with the provider the format, preparation time, and whether any aids are allowed.
Plan food, water, and medication
Tests can run for several hours. Confirm with the provider whether drinks, snacks, or medication may be taken into the room and whether supervised breaks are available.
Check travel and timing
Check the route, public transport times, and any building access requirements in advance. Aim to be at the centre early rather than exactly on time.
Know the result and certificate process
Ask the provider in advance how and when results are released and how you obtain your certificate or documentation.
Dress and prepare for a normal day
There is no dress code. Focus on sleep, a normal meal, and arriving calm; the test is a language assessment, not a performance.
Confirm accessibility arrangements in advance
If you need extra time, a separate room, or other adjustments, confirm with the provider well before the test date; such arrangements are usually not granted on the day.
Plan the day
Re-read the provider's information for your test date, including the address, start time, ID requirements, and permitted materials. Confirm with the provider anything unclear, especially late-arrival and device rules. Do light, targeted practice in the weakest skill rather than full mock tests. Check travel arrangements and, if needed, accommodation.
Pack ID, confirmation, and any permitted materials. Charge nothing you cannot bring into the room; instead note where your phone will stay. Do one short review of useful phrases and text structure, then stop. Eat normally, avoid late nights, and set two alarms. Check the provider's website or messages in case of last-minute changes.
Eat a proper meal, arrive early, and re-check that your ID is with you. Switch off your phone before entering the building or as instructed. Follow staff instructions for registration and seating. If the oral part comes later, use any preparation time to organise your points, not to memorise sentences.
Read all instructions carefully and note the time allowed for each part. In reading and listening, answer the questions asked and do not spend too long on one item. In written production, plan briefly, address every point in the task, and leave a few minutes to check. In the oral part, speak clearly, ask for clarification if needed, and keep going rather than stopping at a mistake.
Note what felt difficult while it is fresh, and confirm with the provider when and how results will be published. Keep your registration documents until you have received your result.
Rules to check
Bring the original photo ID you registered with. Confirm with the provider which documents are accepted and whether expired or copied documents are refused.
Arrive by the stated time. Late arrival may mean you are not admitted; the exact deadline and consequences are set by the provider, so confirm them in advance.
Phones, smartwatches, and other electronic devices must normally be switched off and stored away. Confirm with the provider the device policy and what happens if a device is found.
Use only materials the provider permits. Bringing notes, books, or unauthorised aids into the test room is normally treated as cheating, and the provider decides the consequence.
Follow staff instructions during registration, seating, and breaks. If you need to leave the room, raise your hand and wait to be accompanied or instructed.
Breaks are usually limited and supervised. Confirm with the provider whether breaks are scheduled and whether you may leave the room during a timed part.
Scoring and pass requirements are set by the provider and may differ between modules. Ask the provider for the current assessment criteria and the mark needed to pass rather than relying on second-hand information.
Do not discuss or share test content with other candidates during the day. If you believe there has been a disturbance or an error, tell the invigilator immediately and follow the provider's complaints procedure afterwards.
