Get oriented first, then study with purpose
Good preparation begins with the correct question pool and a clear sequence. The material relevant to you consists of 300 general questions and ten questions for the federal state of your registered primary residence. You then alternate between understanding, reviewing and complete simulations instead of merely memorising answers.

THE STUDY WORKFLOW
Four steps from setup to simulation
Each step has a clear purpose. You can adapt the sequence to your test date and return to difficult topics whenever necessary.
A STRUCTURED METHOD
Four study modes that work together
No single mode covers the entire preparation process. Moving between understanding, recall and application creates a balanced study routine.
Focus on what is not yet secure
Your progress, recent answers and mock exams can inform your study recommendations. Estimated readiness is an orientation aid, not an official prediction of success.
PLAN YOUR STUDY RHYTHM
A study rhythm for the time you have left
These examples are educational guidance, not a guarantee of a particular result. Adapt the workload and breaks to your current knowledge and daily routine.
CLEAR LIMITS
What the platform can do – and what it cannot
Responsible preparation keeps study aids separate from official decisions and procedures.
