Language Requirement Tests

How hard are the placement and competency tests? What’s the format? Are they focused more on specific grammar skills or more general understanding? Are the questions multiple choice or free-response, or a combination? I’m asking for Spanish specifically, but any insight is greatly appreciated.

Can you take them more than once? For example, if going to travel in the country, can I take the test now because writing is better now. Then if do not place out can I take again in Fall?
