Did I hear the wrong information (SAT II Language Tests)?

Test Preparation

<p>Someone told me that because so many native speakers take the test, that it's advised not to take the SAT II Language Tests.</p>

<p>I really want to take French but I heard that the curve is a bit unfair since many fluent speakers take the test and I heard this goes for Spanish, Chinese, Italian, pretty much every language...</p>

<p>So do colleges know what languages we are native speakers of or not?</p>

<p>Also, I heard that the SAT II tests are supposed to be designed to test you on a HIGHSCHOOL curriculum....but I want to take French but all of the French I learned was from the local college and from self-studying so is this okay?</p>

<p>Thanks</p>

<p>I put this in the wrong forum but…bump.</p>

<p>The average score for French is 612 (621 w/ listening), which isn’t so bad. Native speakers are a big concern with Chinese (listening: average score of 764) and Korean (754).</p>
