Thanks for all the encouragement and kind words. I only decided to write TEF sometime in September (didnt really know about the exam before then). Prior to then I was learning just to give me better opportunities when i get to Canada cheesy.
It will end in praise for us all

Congratulations to you.

And to think that you started from scratch to achieve this type of results in 6 months is truly amazing. Please share success preparation tips if you don't mind.

Thank you

It really depends on what you need. Getting B2 across all, gives you 16 points and an extra 30 points for being bilingual. So, the points you re aiming at will determine if you will need to rewrite.

Now, if Ms. Bootylicious needed only 10 points extra, she wouldn't need to rewrite

I may be wrong but I believe it's 12 points for CLB 7 or 8: 3 points for each competence....B2 depending on the exact score is equivalent to a CLB 6 or 7.....unless it changed recently.

Although we all keep using B2..what you actually need is a CLB 7 or 8...check here

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/services/immigrate-canada/express-entry/eligibility/criteria-comprehensive-ranking-system/grid.html

And here

https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration-refugees-citizenship/corporate/publications-manuals/operational-bulletins-manuals/standard-requirements/language-requirements/test-equivalency-charts.html

It's good to know what one needs before writing the exam.

Some B2s (depending on your exact numerical score) will only give you 1 point sef. ..if it's a CLB 6

Also what you update on your express entry profile is not B1 or B2 but the exact numerical score.

This is spot on. I got a B2, B2, B2, C1 which only got me 10 points because one of them was a CLB6 level B2.

So aim for a minimum CLB7 across if you want the bonus points.

Is this calculated on its own or considering the ielts bands of the applicant?

Re: All TEF Candidates For Canada Immigration, Let's Meet Here! by BootyliciousHon: 11:07pm On Jan 13, 2019
I think you get the 30 extra points of you have a minimum of CLB7 across board in TEF and also a good score in IELTS(can't recall the band right now)

This is correct.

CLB 5...which can be taken for granted by an English speaker. (Since most people average 6.5 in IELTS)

Brilliant! Hugely impressive.
Best wishes for your next attempt...

BootyliciousHon:
Am not a bro o!!! Am a babe. Lol
[b]I started in April 2018. First ever french exam. Before April I only knew my primary school french.
[/b]Honestly I didn't take listening very seriously ( listening to french audio and all that. More like i didn't have time for it) but now I will actively listen.
For speaking I could have done better...I think i had exam fright plus I had no idea I wouldn't be given time to prepare. Now i have to do more verbal communication in French ( yeah I speak French mostly in my head cheesy)

Am sad I have to retake the exam but now I know I will go in much better than I did in November.

For others waiting for your result...I wish you success.

Je reste positif!

Apparently AF offers refresher classes.

This may help someone who feels they need assistance in the run up to the exam

Wow Mamaroon! I was so looking forward to your result. All the same, it is well. You already have the right attitude.

If extra money dey, the prepmyfuture app is also useful for writing. Wishing you the best. You'll write this exam for the last time in February by God's Grace

Mamaroon:
So...... trying to regroup after TEF.... undecided

Apparently AF offers refresher classes on Saturdays......9 am to 1pm for 5 Saturdays before the TEF EXAM...not as hectic as I thought. .... I wish I had this info before

Well done, great score though.

I pray you get your 42 points in the next exams.

I am curious though, why is the score just 8? I thought the 2 B2 and the C1 will add up to 9, while the B1 will be 1 point?

Bonne chance pour ton prochain examen!

Tanks for the explanation @Mamaroon, may your next exam be favourable to you.

Also, is anyone here considering the TCF Exam? Alliance Francaise Lagos is not taking it yet, but when I called, the lady said if they have enough people making the request they can decide to start taking it.

Please, if you are interested, let's know ourselves and plan a way forward.

My main reason is the fact that you can pick up your results within 15 days as against TEF which is 2 months
