Free Practice for the Zurich Knowledge Test
What you get for free
- 30 sample questions for the canton of Zurich, with no account. Each question has a short explanation. You see it in German and in your own language.
- One free mock test after you sign up with your email address. Like the real test, it is in German and has a time limit.
- All pages of this guide.
Where the questions come from
All questions, explanations and translations are written by us. They are original. They cover the same topics as the canton’s test, but they are not the canton’s questions, and the real test may be worded differently. Each answer rests on pages of the Confederation, the canton or the communes.
How to practise
First you learn the question in your own language, beside the German text. Later you practise in German only, as in the test. Translations are study aids. The real test is in German.
