💡Expert's Take
No first-year credit for French B SL, so there are no tuition savings to claim. French B appears in UBC's IB first-year credit table only at HL, where a 5 earns FREN_V 301 and FREN_V 302 (6 credits); see our French B HL page. The department's placement guidelines do start students who completed IB French B SL at FREN_V 301, so the subject helps placement even though it earns no credit.
