Short answer: the official rules require 36/45 overall and 4/5 in Danish values.

Why 36 correct may still be a fail

A candidate can exceed 36 correct overall but still fail if fewer than four of the five values questions are correct. Our Denmark mock result therefore shows both conditions separately.

What target should you use while studying?

Try to score comfortably above the overall minimum and repeatedly achieve at least four out of five in the values section. Our readiness score is a study aid, not a guarantee of an official result.

You must satisfy two passing conditions

The result cannot be reduced to a simple percentage. You need at least 36 correct answers out of 45 and at least 4 correct answers among the 5 Danish-values questions. Two candidates with the same total score can therefore have different outcomes if their values-section results differ.

Example: 38/45 overall with 3/5 Danish-values answers is not a pass. 36/45 overall with 4/5 Danish-values answers meets both score conditions.

How to interpret a practice score

A practice result is a study signal, not a prediction of the official outcome. Look for consistency across several attempts. Check the values result separately, then review performance by chapter. One unusually high score does not erase repeated weaknesses close to the pass line.

Build a margin above the minimum

Do not make 36 your training target. Aim to perform reliably above the minimum so that an unfamiliar question or a reading mistake does not immediately put you below the threshold. The values section deserves an even larger safety margin because only one additional error can separate 4/5 from 3/5.

What to do after a failed mock

  1. Group mistakes by subject.
  2. Label each error as a knowledge gap, language/reading error, rushed decision or confusion between similar options.
  3. Read the relevant explanation or official source.
  4. Take a focused practice set on the weak area.
  5. Wait before repeating the identical full set so you test understanding rather than memory of the answer order.

Use category results, not only the headline score

After each mock, look beyond the total. A strong overall result can still hide a recurring weakness in one chapter, while a low total may come from a single topic that is quick to repair. Track the same categories across several attempts and look for a trend. Improvement that persists across different question sets is more meaningful than one unusually easy or difficult session.
