<p>I´m in Revelle and I wanted to take the Spanish placement test, since I´ve taken classes up to Spanish 4 but never took the ap test. How is it?</p>
<p>What should I study for?</p>
<p>Don't study for it. Just take it. You don't want to get stuck into a class that you aren't ready for, particularly in foreign language.</p>
<p>But how difficult is it?</p>
<p>can a placement test take u out of a foreign language GE?></p>
<p>Yes. Which is why I´m asking. </p>
<p>It´d be nice to skip 4 quarters of a class no?</p>
<p>oh well in that case, im very happy</p>
<p>Gah, foreign language is the DEVIL. Alot of people are going for Chinese language classes though, I guess it'd be useful if you deal with Chinese businesses if you go into that field.</p>
<p>the foreign language test is REALLY easy...i dont know why ur stressing out over it..</p>
<p>i took 3 quarters of Japanese at a CC. and I think the GE wants four? that's just sad.</p>
<p>but the SAT 2 counts? yes?</p>
<p>i wonder if there's a japanese placement test?</p>
<p>Im in the same boat as you cupoftea (took foreign language at community college)</p>
<p>If the units you took at the CC are showing up in your academic history, do a degree audit and see if it satisfied the requirement.</p>
<p>eh dont worry about it, its really easy.</p>
<p>can you get out of it w/ a 3 or better in a foreign language AP test??</p>
<p>3 gets u out of 3 of the 4 classes in ERC, a 4 gets u out of all of them.</p>
<p>awsome hopefully ill get a 4-5 in span next year</p>
<p>ha..........</p>
<p>IRAN.4 it doesn't matter if that test was hard for you; it's likely and frankly probable that poloruler23 is better at Spanish than you are.</p>
<p>That test actually isn't bad if you come from a decent high school with a good AP Spanish curriculum poloruler23, so don't worry too much about it :) But knowing that you need that 4 or 5 will be a good motivator throughout the year!</p>
<p>Actually I took french and I request jm0407 to be banned</p>
<p>I get the odd feeling that not many are going to join your cause, IRAN.4</p>
<p>Um. Okay if you didn't even take the Spanish test, why did you reply to what poloruler23 said? What knowledge could you possibly have about a test you had nothing to do with if you can't even keep the simplest and most straightforward facts about your own college education straight?</p>
<p>And lol somewhereonearth XD</p>
<p>Well, since no one headed my warning from earlier, I'll put in my two cents. </p>
<p>I can't really say for Spanish (since I took the French test) but the placement tests aren't really that difficult. As I recall, the French exam did not even test on the subjunctive. And since the placement tests are developped by the same department, I would bet that the French and Spanish exams are pretty similar in difficulty. </p>
<p>Does anyone know if it is possible to even test out of a 4th year language through the placement test? There was a girl in my LTFR 2A class that tested into it, but she was perfectly fluent in french. So from the looks of it, I don't think its possible to get out of GE requirements fully through the placement test...</p>
