How to use the TEF/TCF B1 list
Start by scanning the sample words: chandail, célébrer, déjeuner d'affaires, falloir, tuque, arrondi, bagarre, bande dessinée. If most of them are familiar, move faster. If many slow you down, open this level in GoNative and select words for review.
You do not need to learn the whole list blindly. Mark known words, skip what is not useful and save the words that matter for the exam.
Turn vocabulary into practice
A word list is easy to forget if it stays passive. After selection, move the useful words into review and train them in short sessions.
