Where marks are lost in ÖSD Zertifikat B2
At B2 the exam changes in kind: understanding is no longer enough — you have to argue, justify and respond to objections.
90 minutes of reading with long texts
Longer texts, more abstract vocabulary. Selective reading is a technique you train, not a talent.
Speaking: defending your position
The examiner objects on purpose. You are expected to justify, not back down — which takes practice against a real objection.
