B2 First (FCE) and B2 First for Schools (FCEfS)

 

As there are two versions of the B2 First exam, you might have some questions. For example:

What is the difference between the two exam versions?

The context of the reading topics. You are examined for the same level in both versions: B2 of the Common European Framework.

Is First for Schools easer than B2 First?

In a nutshell, no.

Can I choose which version I will do?

If you are under 18 years old and you are still attending school, choosing First for Schools is advisable. You will work with contexts designed for people your age. 

If you are 18+, you will have to do B2 First.

Where can I read more about the B2 First versions?
