- Essay
Choose one of two situations and write a letter of opinion: date, greeting, your position, the arguments for it, a conclusion, a closing and your signature. Plan, draft, revise with the checklist, then write the final copy.
How it’s marked
- Level 1
- Level 2
- Level 3
- Level 4
Markers at a provincial scoring session mark your letter on each writing trait, from level 1 to level 4. There's no pass mark: levels 3 and 4 meet the expectations.
On the day
One sitting on the computer. You choose one of two writing situations, and the platform shows the steps, a plan and a checklist. Paper dictionaries, a grammar and a conjugation guide are allowed, plus the platform's dictionaries and corrector. Headphones are recommended.
Getting ready
3 official documents to practise with, and 3 tips.

Tips from the people who write it
- Try the public practice test, Écriture 7: it has two real opinion-letter situations and the platform's plan and checklist.
- Back up your opinion with arguments that could convince the person you're writing to.
- Write in the text space: the plan isn't marked.
After the exam
- Results
Parents can see results online in monACCÈS once marking is done.
- Re-marking
You can appeal a result: the school sends a written request with a $25 cheque by October 31, and two independent markers mark the test again. Families who can’t afford the fee can ask the school about an exception.
- If you miss it
A make-up period is set aside for students absent at the official sitting. In a two-part exam, both parts are needed for a result. A student can be exempted when no accommodation fits, their French isn’t yet strong enough, or the exam wouldn’t fairly show what they’ve learned.
From Fondements et gestion, Programme provincial d’évaluation des apprentissages (secteur francophone) (gnb.ca), read on October 27, 2026.
