Understanding the ‘Abitur’ – Your Path to University in Germany

My name is John Doe, and I wanted to explain something important for anyone thinking about studying in Germany: the ‘Abitur’. It’s a really key step, so let’s break it down.

What is the ‘Abitur’?

The ‘Abitur’ is the final school leaving qualification in Germany. It’s like your high school diploma, but with a specific focus. It’s the exam you have to pass to be allowed to apply for university.

How does it work?

After finishing secondary school (‘Realschule’, ‘Gymnasium’, or ‘Gesamtschule’), you take a two-year course called the ‘Abitur’. During this time, you study subjects – we call them ‘Fächer’ – that are important for university. These subjects change depending on the course you want to study at university.

Example sentences:

• “Ich muss im nächsten Jahr mein Abitur machen.” (I have to do my Abitur next year.)
• “Er hat sein Abitur mit sehr guten Noten bestanden.” (He passed his Abitur with very good grades.)
• “Die Prüfungen im Abitur sind sehr anspruchsvoll.” (The exams in the Abitur are very demanding.)

What subjects do you study?

The subjects you study during the ‘Abitur’ depend on your chosen ‘Studienrichtung’ – that’s the field of study you want to pursue at university.

For example, if you want to study medicine (‘Medizin’), you’ll need to study subjects like Biology, Chemistry, and German. If you want to study engineering (‘Ingenieurwesen’), you’ll study Maths and Physics.

Example sentences:

• “Für ein Wirtschaftsstudium brauchst du Fächer wie Rechnungswesen und Statistik.” (For an economics course, you need subjects like accounting and statistics.)
• “Sie hat im Abitur Deutsch, Englisch und Geschichte gelernt.” (She studied German, English, and history in her Abitur.)

The ‘Abitur’ Exam

At the end of the ‘Abitur’, you take a final exam – the ‘Abiturprüfung’. This exam tests your knowledge of all the subjects you’ve studied. The exam is usually written, but sometimes it can also be oral.

Example sentences:

• “Ich habe Angst vor der Abiturprüfung.” (I’m scared of the Abitur exam.)
• “Die Abiturprüfung besteht aus schriftlichen und mündlichen Teilen.” (The Abitur exam consists of written and oral parts.)

Practical Usage:

If you want to apply for a course at a university, you must have a certificate of completion (‘Zeugnis’) from your ‘Abitur’. This certificate shows that you’ve successfully completed the ‘Abitur’.

Mary Carry says: “Having a good grade in your Abitur is essential for getting into your favourite university course.”

I hope this gives you a basic understanding of the ‘Abitur’. It’s a challenging but important step towards your university studies in Germany.
