The DELF B2 is a widely recognised proof of your French — useful for study, work and visas. With focused preparation, it's very passable. Here's what to expect and how to get ready.
The exam format
- Compréhension de l'oral — listening to talks and interviews
- Compréhension des écrits — reading articles and arguments
- Production écrite — a reasoned, structured text
- Production orale — defend a point of view from a document
How to prepare
Build your B2 French steadily: the subjunctive, complex connectors, argumentation, and a wide topic vocabulary (society, media, environment). Practise structured opinion essays and a clear spoken argument.
Tips that make the difference
- Structure your writing clearly: introduction, arguments, conclusion.
- In speaking, state a clear position and support it — don't just describe.
- Read French news to build B2 vocabulary.
- You need 50/100 overall, with no skill below 5/25.
Communication beats perfection. Candidates who keep going — and keep speaking — pass.
