Listening (three audios, each played twice) and reading comprehension across the themes, marked on an objective answer key. HL sits a full hour of listening and works from longer, denser texts.

French B Mock Exams — FAQ
- Are IB French B mock exams available?
- Yes — full Paper 1 and Paper 2 mocks at both SL and HL, on top of the exam-style practice built into the French B study units and exam vault.
- How is French B assessed?
- Paper 1 is one written task (25%), Paper 2 is listening plus reading (50%), and the individual oral is internally assessed (25%). The weightings are the same at SL and HL.
- What is the difference between the SL and HL mocks?
- The papers are the same shape at both levels. HL gives you a longer Paper 1 task (450–600 words in 1 hour 30 minutes against 250–400 in 1 hour 15), a full hour of listening rather than 45 minutes, and denser reading texts.
