<p>ok do i need to take the placement exam for a language...i read somewhere on the site that if you have 2 years of spanish in HS, you are automatically placed in a course</p>
<p>i didnt take the SAT IIs but i have 4 years of HS spanish, including spanish 101-102 i think from syracuse Univ</p>
<p>What high school classes you took in foreign language has no relevance on your placement or genral education requirements. Only things that matter is performance on one of several approved testing methods (which include orientation/placement exam, SAT II, some other testing service in some cases) or transfer of credits from another college.</p>
<p>My daughter will be attending in the Fall and took the placement exam for Spanish. Somehow (she doesn't know how, because she wasn't that good in Spanish, and says she doesn't know anything) she placed into 202 which means she would only need 1 semester of Spanish I guess. The problem is she is scared to death to start in a 202 class since she says she really doesn't know spanish very well. She didn't take Spanish at all this senior year. Is there a particular teacher that is better? Is there a teacher to avoid? Should she take it at a community college in the summer where it might be easier? Can you do that?</p>
