What the figures show

  • B1 sittings are almost **six times** their 2021 level — a consequence of the Wet inburgering 2021.
  • B2 grew far more slowly: 14,826 to 22,268 sittings.
  • At A1 the first-time pass rate was 72% (2020: 77%).
  • More than three-quarters of A1 candidates are women, and women pass about 6 points higher than men.

Bu senin için ne anlama geliyor

  • Do not assume B1 “usually works out”: about half of all attempts do not pass.
  • More candidates means longer queues — register early.
  • Compare your preparation with where it actually goes wrong: Listening and Reading.

Sık sorulan sorular

Are these people or attempts?

Sittings, so attempts: one candidate can sit several parts and several attempts.

Why is A2 missing?

The A2 integration exam runs through DUO and is reported separately, not in the CvTE annual report.
