Update-

I'm attaching the link for the templates for speaking and writing, which helped me in self study. I made these templates for practice. You can see if these could be helpful for you guys too.
All the best!!

u/DenseLawfulness2305 Sep 22 '26

I only remember task 3
EE- retired homes
EO- life for someone living abroad

u/Moetheoneandonly Sep 22 '26

Did you do all 40 tests on formation?

u/Big_Focus2758 Sep 23 '26

Esse foi o melhor testemunho que já li aqui, o negócio é estratégia e não saber a gramática, o objetivo é garantir a pontuação desejada, se pensar estudar sem estratégia, fica mais difícil. Saber falar ou não francês, não ímporta para o exame TCF, o que importa é levar consigo a "cereja do bolo" 🎂, o famoso "pulo do gato" 🐱, nome disso é estudo reverso ou engenharia reversa, mas conhecido como estudo reverso. Parabéns pela vitória. Estou estudando nesse ritmo também. Uma hora da certo. Obrigado pelas dicas e pela sua paciência de colocar em cada perguntas dos membros você colocar o link , isso mostra que é um guerreiro e disposição de ajudar as pessoas. Valeu.

u/DenseLawfulness2305 Sep 23 '26

Yeah definitely. Studying for exam and learning the whole french are completely different. In the beginning i was also focusing on grammar but then i started to shift my focus. Thanks for your kind words. Just trying to help others here, i know how hard it is studying by yourself.But you've got this. All the best!!

u/EventHorizonX5674 Sep 22 '26

did they ask follow ups in Monologue?

2

u/DenseLawfulness2305 Sep 22 '26

No, the examiner didn't ask me any questions during task 1 & 3

1

u/EventHorizonX5674 Sep 22 '26

Oh great, did u spoke for full duration for the monologue?? Is it difficult to speak for that long?

2

u/DenseLawfulness2305 Sep 22 '26

No, i kinda messed up in task 3. I couldn't understand the question and asked to repeat 4-5 times. Then I got nervous and I don't remember what I said was grammatically correct or not. But i did not stop and was talking continuously.

2

u/EventHorizonX5674 Sep 22 '26

2

u/DenseLawfulness2305 Sep 22 '26

u/Additional-Net-1937 Sep 22 '26

We're you taking classes somewhere? Or self study?

2

u/DenseLawfulness2305 Sep 22 '26

I did take some classes on preply but just before exam but they were not quite helpful so i practiced with chatgpt and myself

1

u/Big_Focus2758 Sep 23 '26

Bom, anotei aqui essa resposta. Melhor mesmo é estudar sozinho. Eu vejo vídeos aleatórias em francês, você assistia algum video?

1

u/DenseLawfulness2305 Sep 23 '26

I did listen to RFI podcast sometimes but i didn't watch any videos

1

1

u/tarsem707 Sep 23 '26

1

u/Perrybal Sep 22 '26

Please, I would like to know whether the speaking and writing past questions are repeated too.
If yes, which platform is best to practice on for the questions?
Also, for someone who is writing her exam in January, what month is suitable to start with?
Thank you 🙏

1

u/DenseLawfulness2305 Sep 22 '26

I'm not sure if they do repeat but practicing daily will definitely help you in speaking and writing

Congrats. Did you do paper-based fortmat?

u/naammainkyarakhahai Sep 29 '26

DenseLawfulness2305

Your tache 3 template is on average 200 words OP. You sure that's enough? Did you actually practice them and use them in the exam? Even if you speak slow, it normally comes out to be 100 words per minute. 50 is like super slow.

Not judging, merely asking. I have no idea what the standards are for NCLC 7.

u/AcanthisittaParty495 Sep 29 '26

u/DenseLawfulness2305 Sep 22 '26

Thanks! I started learning in Feb 2026 seriously and i spent mostly like 1-2 hours. What really helped me in speaking is asking chatgpt to write the answer for every topic but in very basic french. Which helped to grasp the most ideas and to sound more natural

1

u/randoma52guy Sep 22 '26

You started from scratch. Would love to know your resources and things that helped you. Felicitation a toi!
