<p>I've heard very few take it and that it is very difficult. I'm in my fourth full year of German and I did an exchange program for a month. Yet, my teacher said I, nor anyone else in the class is prepared to take the AP exam. She took it in high school and I guess our German department, which is essentially her, has decided our goal is not to gain AP credit, but to pass or do well in college placement exams. I guess that's fair, since we are not an AP class, but I was just wondering how difficult it is?</p>
