<p>I'm planning to take the Spanish SAT Subject Test and I was wondering whether colleges have a preference over Spanish w/ listening or Spanish w/o listening... Thanks!!</p>
<p>I think colleges usually prefer language test with listening</p>
<p>Are you a native speaker? If not, be forewarned.</p>
<p>It is very difficult for nonnatives to do well on the Foreign Language subject tests. For the AP Exams, they separate natives from non-natives on the curve so as to give non-natives a shot at a 4 or 5. However, they don't practice this with subject tests. Thus, all the native Spanish speakers kill the curve on the questions and make scoring well difficult. I know someone who got a 750 on Math 2 but a 540 on Spanish...another one of my friends whose ranked at the top of our class got a 620, which for him I'm sure is not good.</p>
