Quick answers about practice sets, mock exams, membership and review.
Do I need separate practice for TCF Canada and TCF Québec?
No. You practice by skill: listening, reading, writing and speaking. The same bank is useful for both TCF Canada and TCF Québec preparation.
What can I use for free?
You can try two full listening sets and two full reading sets. Each set has 39 questions, so you can test the real workflow before subscribing.
What does membership add?
Membership unlocks more full listening and reading sets, fixed explanations after submission, writing and speaking mock exams, plus date and category topic banks.
Why do I see a different set when I enter listening or reading?
That is intentional. Main entrances choose a random set so you do not always start from Test 1. If you want a specific set, use the list on the left.
Do listening and reading mock exams start directly?
Yes. The main listening and reading entries randomly choose a full 39-question mock exam and start the session. If you want strategy first, open the listening or reading guide separately. Writing and speaking also have mock exam, topic bank and high-score example entries.
When can I see answers and explanations?
For listening and reading, submit the set first. Then you can see your score, correct answers and explanations.
Can I take writing and speaking mock exams?
Yes. Writing includes a 60-minute simulation and topic categories. Speaking opens through the strategy page and speaking practice/topic bank.
Will my progress be saved?
Yes, after signing in. Your attempts, progress and wrong questions are saved to your account.
Do plans unlock different content?
No. All plans unlock the same content. The only difference is how long your access lasts.
