This 30-question C1 test checks your command of French past participle agreement, from the core avoir and être rules to pronominal verbs and the tricky cases that challenge even advanced users. It is designed for advanced learners, exam candidates and teachers who want a precise, printable diagnostic with explanations.
Use this test after revising the avoir/être agreement rules, or as a diagnostic before a C1/DALF writing module. It targets typical advanced errors: agreeing with a direct object placed after the verb, mishandling pronominal verbs with an indirect se (se parler, se succéder), and over-agreeing with en, impersonal verbs, fait + infinitive and implied infinitives. As a follow-up, ask students to justify each answer by identifying the direct object and its position, then proofread a short text of their own for agreement errors.
