The A2 exam centre inside the course
A clear prep path in one place: the official 2026 format, what's tested, scoring, the Soupis A1–A2 word list, a prep plan and links to the official portal.
A2 exam format: time, points and the pass mark
According to the official portal, the written part combines reading, writing and listening, while the spoken part is separate. To pass you need at least 42 of 70 points in the written part and 24 of 40 in the spoken part.
| Part | What's tested | Time | Points | Pass mark |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Reading | Understanding notices, short texts, tables, messages and instructions. | 40 min | 25 | Written part together: 42 of 70 |
| Writing | A form, a short message, a request, rescheduling an appointment, a simple official email. | 25 min | 20 | |
| Listening | Short dialogues and announcements: time, price, route, reason, action. | about 40 min | 25 | |
| Spoken part | Answering questions, everyday situations and reactions to pictures/tasks. | 15 min | 40 | 24 of 40 |
Always check the time, points and pass marks against the official portal before you register: the exam rules can be updated.
What you need to cover for A2
You shouldn't have to hunt across the site. So the prep is split into parts that match the real logic of the exam.
Listening
Numbers, time, prices, routes, a phone call, the reason for a problem. Key skill: first listen for meaning, second for details.
Writing
A form, a short message, a request, rescheduling, a polite email. This is where templates and a self-check list help most.
Speaking
Talk about yourself, answer everyday questions, describe a picture, ask again if you didn't understand. Six simple phrases beat one broken complex one.

A2 FAQ
Does the course guarantee a pass?
No. The course helps you prepare, train the format and find weak spots, but the exam itself is taken separately at an official centre.
What matters most after 2026?
Not just words, but being able to do the task: understand the question, answer on the sheet, write a short text and react out loud to a situation.
Where do I start?
Try the official model test, learn the format on this page, then build a study plan and pick an exam date.
Ahoj, Praha! is not an official examination centre. All sensitive details — dates, price, rules, registration, the list of schools and exceptions — must be checked on the official portal before you register.
