Straight answer: nobody yet knows exactly where the pass mark will land. UHR has not published an official passing score for medborgarskapsprovet. The first test session, on 15 August 2026, was explicitly a pilot with generous time allowed for all participants — the level is now being evaluated ahead of future sessions.
No published pass mark — yet
This isn't just our own reading of UHR's material — it's been covered in the press too. After the first test session, Swedish outlet Sejfer reported that the pass threshold was still unclear. We'll update this page with a source as soon as UHR publishes an official mark.
One caution: any app or site that states an exact passing percentage (for example "75%") is doing so without support from anything UHR has published — that's a guess, not a fact. We've chosen not to state a number we can't back up.
What do we know about the level?
UHR's own example questions are the most concrete source available today for the test's difficulty. They test basic knowledge of Swedish society — government structure, democracy, the public sector, and important historical events. See all five official example questions →
The test itself is multiple-choice with four answer options per question, which makes it more approachable than a test requiring written answers — but the questions still demand broad general knowledge about Sweden. Read more about the test format →
How to prepare regardless
Wherever the final pass mark ends up, the strategy is the same: broad, repeated practice across the whole subject area, not just memorizing isolated facts.
- Practice in the same format as the real test — multiple-choice, four options, timed.
- Cover the subject areas broadly instead of getting stuck on details.
- Review regularly instead of cramming at the last minute.
- Test yourself with UHR's example questions to calibrate your own sense of the level.
