DSH exam preparation training: Description
While focussing on the written parts of the exam in the first three weeks, teachers will give advice about the oral exam at the end of course.
The IIK offers an optimal preparation training for the structure of the DSH exam. Insight is given into the specific sections of the exam and strategies aimed at solving the questions as well as time management are practised. Course materials are authentic former DSH exams. Additionally, a training related textbook is used.
We offer the exam training as an online course or as a classroom course. If you are unable to attend the classroom course, e.g. due to travel restrictions, or if we have to cancel the course in its attendance form for reasons beyond our control, you are entitled to a comparable offer in terms of workload and learning outcome. In this case the total number of live online classes may differ from the number of hours of traditional classroom training, for example because of smaller groups, extra teacher individual support, collaborative learning or additional online self-study tasks.
