B1 would be better, see the examples I've linked below.

Is there negative marking?
yes, -1 point for the wrong answer, or multiple answers in the multiple choice sections. 3 points for the right answer, 0 for no answer.

What is the level and type of exam for Writing, Speaking and Reading?
Plz share study material if you have.

Can_US: you're welcome If you do a search through the Quebec applicant threads for TEF, you'll very likely find some posts about it - I'd link but my phone is not being cooperative ATM.

I'll do that.

Very grateful for your help. God bless you.
