How to use a TEF practice test effectively
- Time yourself. Reading and listening feel different under the clock than untimed drills.
- Review every wrong answer by skill block (annonces, articles, documents professionnels).
- Treat writing and speaking as graded production — not just “I finished.” Aim for NCLC 7 language.
- Retake a full mock after you close gaps; your weakest section sets your IRCC floor.
