Go to TV5MONDE's "Compréhension orale B2" and do one exercise. Then create a weekly schedule. Good luck — bonne préparation !

| Mistake | Better approach | | :--- | :--- | | Writing Je suis d'accord repeatedly | Use varied expressions: Je partage ce point de vue, Cette idée me semble pertinente, Je souscris à cette opinion. | | Speaking in present tense only | Use conditional ( Je préférerais ), future ( Cela aura pour conséquence ), and subjunctive ( Bien que ce soit ). | | Memorizing essays | Examiners spot rehearsed speeches. Prepare arguments, not scripts. | | Ignoring pronunciation | Bad pronunciation blocks comprehension. Use and mimic native speakers. | | Not practicing under time pressure | You will run out of time on writing/speaking prep. Always use a timer. |
