How many practice tests should I take before the exam?

Question

A question we are often asked at the office. The answer below is the one we give our candidates.

A candidate preparing over six to eight weeks usually takes ten to fifteen. The first one is there to measure where you stand; the rest are there to fix what the first one revealed. Taking all thirty is only worth it if you are preparing over several months. For the TCF Canada, the logic is different: the Prépa TCF topics come up again at the exam, so every topic you work through — down to the last one — is one more chance of facing, on test day, a topic you have already practised. Work through all of them.
