Could someone provide more details about SDS german test who took it recently

What are the typical questions in the spoken part and topics for written test. Thank you!

a year later but hope this helps someone. I took the test in March 2025.
Written questions were most to write an email: to the employer asking for holiday, to the school to say why you can’t attend parent evening. I can’t remember the rest… the A1 were quite short like 200 characters, the B1/B2 were more like 800 characters
Verbal questions were 1/ to introduce yourself 2/ describe a typical day at work 3/ favourite food 4/ discuss whether shops should be open for trading on sunday (I got time to think about this one and write my arguments pro and against. I think the last one is only given to people being tested at B2, the examiner decides on the spot if to give you this question or not)

Thanks for the update - so what certificate did you obtain then?

I can’t edit this post anymore so just want to clarify the length - it was actually more like 80-100 words and 200-300 words (not the character numbers i mention)

They give you separate scores for speaking, writing, listening and reading. I got B2 / B1 / B2 / B1. Enough for my C permit so was happy!
