Markers at a provincial scoring session mark your written answers, and the choice questions are right or wrong. There's no pass mark: level 3 is the target at the end of Grade 3. You need both parts for a result.

Tips from the people who write it

  • You need both days, the literary text and the informational text, to get a result.
  • Reaction questions ask your opinion with reasons: the best answers use the text and your own experience.
  • Spelling isn't marked in written answers, but revise them so they're clear.

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.
