Frequently asked questions
What is the Samfunnskunnskapsprøven?
An official 38-question multiple-choice exam about Norwegian society: laws, democracy, work, family, health and everyday life. You need it for permanent residence, and if you take it in Norwegian, it also counts towards citizenship.
How many questions are there, and how many do I need to pass?
Samfunnskunnskapsprøven: 38 questions in 60 minutes, of which 34 count, and you need 26 correct. Statsborgerprøven: 36 questions in 60 minutes, of which 32 count, and you need 24 correct. On both exams the remaining 4 are unscored trial questions. Prøveappen's mock exams use the same format, the same timing and the same pass marks.
Is the free exam a real mock exam?
