About the LTF12 Exam
The Évaluation de littératie de la 12e année – Français langue seconde-immersion (LTF12) is a required BC provincial graduation assessment for French Immersion students, determining their French literacy proficiency at the end of the immersion program (part of the dual Dogwood). It assesses fundamental literacy — critically analyzing and making meaning from diverse documents, and communicating in varied modes — not tied to a particular course. The written component has a common-core Part A (selected-response questions on documents around an essential question) and a Part B with two equal pathways (The world of information / The world of expression), each ending in a constructed analysis and an essay taking a stance. The oral component has two parts: taking a stance after an audio stimulus, and argumentation on a debatable question. Students normally write it in Grade 12; a narrow exception allows Grade 11 for students who have completed all required French-taught courses. Constructed responses are marked by a provincial teacher team, and results are reported on the four-level proficiency scale. The official assessment is entirely in French. The practice questions here are an English-language MCQ study adaptation — they practise French comprehension, argumentation, language conventions, and oral-communication judgment, but they are not an official translation, not a simulation of the French-language environment, and not a substitute for written or oral practice.

LTF12: Suggested Study Strategy
Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a pass or fail on the LTF12?
No. It is a summative assessment determining your French literacy proficiency at the end of the immersion program, reported on the four-level proficiency scale (Emerging, Developing, Proficient, Extending) with no percentage cut score.
Who writes the LTF12?
French Immersion students, normally in Grade 12. A narrow exception allows writing it in Grade 11 if the student has completed all French-taught courses required for the dual diploma and will take none in Grade 12.
What is the difference between Part A and Part B of the written component?
Part A is a common core: all students analyze documents around an essential question with selected-response questions. Part B offers a choice between two equal pathways — The world of information and The world of expression — each with selected-response questions, one constructed analysis, and an essay taking a stance.
Is the LTF12 the same as the francophone LTP12 or the English LTE12?
No. The LTF12 is designed for French Immersion (second-language) students; the LTP12 serves the Programme francophone (first language) and the LTE12 serves English-program students. Immersion students write the English literacy assessments and the LTF12.
What language is the LTF12 in?
Entirely French. Our practice bank is an English-language MCQ study adaptation that keeps French passages and skills where they are integral; it is not an official translation or a simulation of the assessment's language environment.
Who marks the LTF12?
Constructed responses of the written and oral components are marked by a team of teachers from various regions of the province; selected-response items are machine-scored.
How should I prepare?
Work through the official sample assessments (Forms A and B) and marking guides on the BC curriculum site, and practise taking stances and arguing aloud in French on debatable questions.
