The question as it appears on the exam
Was ist in Deutschland vor allem eine Aufgabe der Bundesländer?
The Einbürgerungstest is written and sat in German only, with no dictionary allowed. Use the English below to understand the question, but learn to recognise the German wording above — that is what you will see on the day.

- CWirtschaftspolitikEconomic policy

Correct answer

Education policy
Why this is the answer
Education policy is primarily the responsibility of the federal states, so school systems may differ between them. Foreign and defense policy are federal responsibilities.
How this question fits into the exam
On exam day you answer 33 questions in 60 minutes: 30 from the general catalog of 300 questions — this question is one of them — and 3 about your federal state. You pass with 17 correct answers. Aiming for exactly 17 leaves no margin for nerves, so take timed mock exams until 33 out of 33 feels routine.
