Was mitnehmen? Essential items for your German HL P3 exam

What should you bring to the exam hall for your German HL P3? Here is a simple checklist:

• Your official statement of entry or admission letter. This is your ticket to the exam!
• Your Identity Document (ID), often a green barcoded ID book or your smart ID card. No ID, no entry, leider.
• Two or three black or blue ballpoint pens. Make sure they are working well. No fancy colours, please!
• A sharp pencil and a good eraser, just in case you need to sketch something or make notes on draft paper if permitted.
• A transparent pencil case. Security rules, you know.
• A clear bottle of water. Stay hydrated, it helps with concentration.
• A small snack, like a chocolate bar, in a clear wrapper, if allowed by the invigilator, for energy.
• Your watch, but it must be a simple analogue watch. No smartwatches are permitted in the exam hall.

Please double check if a dictionary is allowed for Paper 3. Usually, for Home Language, it is not, but always confirm with your teachers.

Behaviour im Prüfungsraum: How to conduct yourself

Once you are in the exam hall, remember the rules. Listen carefully to the instructions from the invigilators. Do not talk to other candidates. Keep your eyes on your own paper. If you have a question, raise your hand quietly and wait for assistance. Follow all instructions regarding the start and end of the exam. Respect your fellow students and the exam process. This is a serious time, and your future is important.

Viel Glück, dear students! We believe in you. You have put in the hard work, and now is your moment to shine. Go into that exam with confidence, focus, and show them what you know!
