Exam in 2 days - need advice on strategy from people who have done it

I'm now trying to cover as many topics as I can for EO as I'm facing two risks now when I do a full test:

  1. if I get a sujet for tache 3 that is so out of it, I would struggle to find two arguments and immediately go about it in french so im trying to cover as many topics as I can but I'm now finding topics that are a hypothetical (if you wanted to start a company, what would it be and why) the biggest issue for me is I start repeating words/become less fluid because im not used to the topic and I'd be trying to think of arugments as I go which is not ideal

  2. les genre dans EE. I still make a lot of mistakes with genders. So trying to just write more but yeah cant do much more there.

Have you guys had any strategies for similar issues? I don't know how they judge/rank points exactly to know if I hesitate is it better to take a second and get my thoughts together.

I will admit this is somewhat of a freak out post but I would really appreciate any resources to prepare on topics more. I read a post that mentioned preparing des sous-arguments that can cover more ground but I'm not finding them through a reputable source. I did all my prepping with Prepmyfuture TCF and claude for EE and EO.

Would appreciate any advice in all 4 parts but especially EE and EO!

Are there any success stories of reevaluation of Tcf speaking. I got b2 in others but 9/20 in speaking so i applied for reevaluation and i’m hoping that they would increase at least 1 score.

Finally got my TCF Canada results 🎉 C1 listening, B2 speaking

Hey French learners! So I took my TCF not too long ago after practicing intensely for the exam for about 2 to 3 months. Note that I was at around an A2 advanced to early B1 level in French when I started my preparations. I just wanted to use this opportunity to share my experience with other learners. Honestly, I didn't think I'd get C1 on listening because that was my weakest section for months, even after a lot of practice.

After a lot of back and forth with the listening exercises, and ending up at around B1 for a while even with consistent practices, I entirely stopped just listening while hoping that I'd catch a few words and started taking past TCF exercises with subtitles showing both French and English words side by side. Generally, I'd listen, try to answer and then check the transcript to see exactly which words I missed. After a few weeks I was recognizing words I used to entirely not realize and eventually crept my way up to B2 then C1 in listening.

And for my speaking I just practiced out loud every day. Essentially, I mostly practiced the actual test exam questions to be very familiarized with the test content before the exam day. I had used various AI scoring tools and generally it really helped me catch pronunciation stuff that I missed or vocabulary misses in my sentences as well.

Anyways, just wanted to share in case anyone else is stuck on listening and speaking. The subtitle method genuinely changed everything for me.

Wish all French learners the best of luck with their exams 🤞

TCF results in 7 months starting from scratch.

7 months. B1 done from Alliance Française and thought I'll attempt it once. I'm quite surprised at how low writing is graded. I'm sure speaking went worse😂.

Attempting again soon, no point going for reevaluation since i missed the mark on listening too.

I got A1 twice in EO

Hey everyone,

​I just got my results back from my second TCF Canada attempt and I’m shocked. My Compréhension is fine but I got a literal 1/20 (A1) on Expression Orale.

​My first time I took the exam, I got A1 because I know I went off-topic, so a low score made sense. This time, I stayed strictly on-topic. My French was very basic, but I answered everything confidently and correctly.

  1. Score jump probability: Is jumping from a 1/20 to a 6/20 realistic through a reevaluation?
  2. Timeline: How many days does a reevaluation actually take right now?

​I have zero risk of my level dropping further, but is it a waste of $120? Thanks!

I received my TCF results today and it's my first attempt. Do you think it's worth going for reevaluation in both EO and EE?

Thanks for your responses!

TCF Exam– Happy to Help a Few Students

Hi everyone!
I passed the TCF a couple of months ago and achieved the desired score I needed. During my own preparation, I learned a lot about the exam format, time management, and what examiners are looking for.
Since then, I’ve been helping a couple of students prepare for the exam, and I’d like to work with a few more people who are aiming for a good TCF score.
What I’ll help you with:
Understanding all three speaking tasks
Building natural French responses
Improving fluency and confidence
Mock interviews with personalized feedback
Tips and strategies that helped me succeed
Whether you’re targeting B1, B2, or higher, I’d be happy to guide you.
If you’re interested, send me a DM with your full name and your current level and I’ll get in touch. I’m only taking a few students for now because I already have 2 students so I can give everyone enough attention.
Bonne chance à tous dans votre préparation !
