Sample Bac C Burkina Faso Practice Questions

Try these sample questions to review concepts for the Bac C Burkina Faso exam. Each question includes a detailed explanation. Start the interactive quiz above for the full 100+ question experience with AI tutoring.

1Evaluate lim(x→∞) (6x² + x)/(3x² − 2).
A.0
B.2
C.3
D.6
Explanation: Divide numerator and denominator by x², the highest power of x: (6 + 1/x)/(3 − 2/x²). As x → ∞ both 1/x and 2/x² vanish, so the limit is 6/3 = 2. For rational functions of equal degree, the limit at infinity is the ratio of leading coefficients.
2Let f(x) = x³ − 6x + 1. What is f'(2)?
A.6
B.3
C.7
D.12
Explanation: Differentiate term by term: f'(x) = 3x² − 6. Then f'(2) = 3(4) − 6 = 12 − 6 = 6. The constant 1 vanishes on differentiation.
3If g(x) = sin(2x), what is g'(π/6)?
A.2
B.√3
C.1
D.0
Explanation: The chain rule gives g'(x) = 2 cos(2x). At x = π/6, 2x = π/3, and cos(π/3) = 1/2, so g'(π/6) = 2 × (1/2) = 1. Forgetting the inner factor 2 is a common Terminale C slip.
4A primitive of 4x³ − 2x on ℝ is:
A.12x² − 2 + C
B.x⁴ − x² + C
C.4x⁴ − 2x² + C
D.x⁴ − 2x + C
Explanation: Increase each power by 1 and divide by the new power: ∫4x³ dx = x⁴ and ∫(−2x) dx = −x², so a primitive is x⁴ − x² + C. Differentiating x⁴ − x² recovers 4x³ − 2x.
5Compute ∫ from 1 to 3 of (2x + 1) dx.
A.8
B.6
C.12
D.10
Explanation: A primitive is x² + x. Evaluate [x² + x] from 1 to 3: (9 + 3) − (1 + 1) = 12 − 2 = 10. This is the signed area under y = 2x + 1 between x = 1 and x = 3.
6Simplify ln(e⁴).
A.4
B.e⁴
C.ln 4
D.4e
Explanation: ln and exp are inverse functions: ln(e^a) = a for every real a, so ln(e⁴) = 4. Equivalently, e⁴ means the unique positive real whose natural logarithm is 4.
7An arithmetic sequence has first term u₁ = 5 and common difference d = 3. What is u₈?
A.24
B.29
C.26
D.21
Explanation: The general term is uₙ = u₁ + (n − 1)d. Thus u₈ = 5 + 7 × 3 = 5 + 21 = 26. There are seven steps of +3 from the first term to the eighth.
8A geometric sequence has first term 2 and common ratio 3. What is the sum of the first five terms?
A.162
B.242
C.243
D.80
Explanation: Sₙ = a(rⁿ − 1)/(r − 1) for r ≠ 1. Here S₅ = 2(3⁵ − 1)/(3 − 1) = 2(243 − 1)/2 = 242. Explicitly: 2 + 6 + 18 + 54 + 162 = 242.
9The modulus of the complex number 5 − 12i is:
A.13
B.7
C.17
D.√17
Explanation: |a + bi| = √(a² + b²). Here √(25 + 144) = √169 = 13. The pair (5, 12, 13) is a Pythagorean triple, so the modulus is an integer.
10Compute (2 + i)(3 − i).
A.6 − 2i
B.5 + i
C.6 + i
D.7 + i
Explanation: Expand: 2·3 + 2·(−i) + i·3 + i·(−i) = 6 − 2i + 3i − i². Since i² = −1, −i² = +1, so the real part is 6 + 1 = 7 and the imaginary part is (−2 + 3)i = i. The product is 7 + i.

About the Bac C Burkina Faso Exam

Série C is Burkina Faso's mathematics-and-physics Baccalauréat stream, the standard lycée route toward engineering and hard-science faculties. MESFPT ran the 2026 first tour from 23 June to 1 July; a dedicated 2026 Mathématiques Série C paper was published alongside shared C-D French, philosophy and history-geography papers. Official tasks are written problem sets in French. This free English MCQ bank trains C-stream knowledge — it is not an official translation or a substitute for timed written problem papers.

Exam sponsor: MESFPT (Ministère de l'Enseignement Secondaire, de la Formation Professionnelle et Technique). The requirements and fees below concern the certification or admission exam, separate from our free practice resources.

Assessment

First-tour written mathematics (dedicated C paper in 2026), physical sciences, and shared C-D French, philosophy and history-geography papers, then oral rachat. This bank is an English MCQ study adaptation only.

Time Limit

Multi-paper written first tour (2026: 23 June–1 July) plus oral second tour (6–7 July 2026).

Passing Score

Graded out of 20; awarded on a weighted average of at least 10/20, with oral rachat for close candidates.

Bac C Burkina Faso: Suggested Study Strategy

1Drill derivatives, integrals and sequences every day — they dominate the C maths paper.
2Keep a formula sheet for mechanics and circuits and re-derive results rather than memorising only.
3Work 2026 and earlier C annales under timed conditions after MCQ review.
4Do not neglect French and philosophy; they still enter the weighted average.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the official Bac C multiple choice?

No. Official papers are written problem sets and essays in French, with an oral second tour. This bank is an English MCQ study adaptation.

How does Série C differ from Série D?

C weights mathematics and physical sciences most heavily; D weights SVT (natural sciences) and is the usual medicine/pharmacy pathway.

What was the 2026 national bac pass rate?

MESFPT reported 63,455 admitted out of 106,004 registered (61.54%) across all series.
