<p>so...I'm wondering if you take the class, buy a review book, etc</p>
<p>you will get a 5?</p>
<p>or is it really tough and only native speakers can ace it?</p>
<p>thanks</p>
<p>i would like to know too :)</p>
<p>i had a really good teacher who also was kind of intimidating so we did our work. she made us read all of the material listed but she also covered and summarized the material well so i learned a lot. i got a 5, but im also a native speaker :]</p>
<p>there's no review book to the best of my knowledge. take the class and you'll be fine as long as you have a strong, and i mean a STRONG background in spanish. it is very intense. can you ace it? anyone can. dedication, friend. native speakers get a little leg ahead because of their ability to understand spanish better. this is not very singnificant if you can't express that eloquently in writing, though. good teachers are more important, though. the one at my school is an ass but is good at sinthesizing things. Just work hard and youll be fine.</p>
