🧮 Official Test Score Calculator – TEF & TCF Canada
🎯 Introduction
Welcome to FrenchTestSimulator, your official test score calculator for the TEF Canada and TCF Canada exams!
With this smart tool, you can convert your raw results into official CEFR and CLB levels. The official test score calculator provides a clear, accurate interpretation of your language performance according to the standards recognized by Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada (IRCC).
🔢 Understanding How TEF Canada Works
The TEF Canada (Test d’évaluation de français), administered by the CCI Paris Île-de-France, evaluates four core language skills.
Each section of this official language test follows a precise scoring scale, which our official test score calculator faithfully reproduces.
| Skill | Minimum score | Maximum score | CEFR/CLB Levels |
|---|---|---|---|
| Listening | 0 | 360 | A1 → C2 |
| Reading | 0 | 300 | A1 → C2 |
| Speaking | 0 | 450 | A1 → C2 |
| Writing | 0 | 450 | A1 → C2 |
📊 Example:
- A listening score of 250/360 usually corresponds to Level B2 (CLB 8).
- A speaking score of 400/450 equals Level C1 (CLB 9–10).

💡 Good to Know
Your overall level is not an average of your results.
Canadian authorities such as IRCC often require a minimum level in each skill.
For instance, the Express Entry program typically demands at least CLB 7 (B2 level) across all sections to qualify.
