New AP Spanish section

<p>Is there a new section, where u have to fill in the blank with a multiple choice section of words? My teacher told me this replaced the finding the error in the sentence. I think shes wrong, but can anyone back me up? Thanks in advance.</p>

<p>I haven't heard anything about that...
I'm fairly freaked out about the AP Spanish test. Wednesday for me!!! (I assume it's the same for everyone??) I took a practice test, and got about a 3...I'm hoping I can pull it up with some in-depth review by the test...</p>

<p>I have linked to the changes for the exam in my post ("Changes to the Language Exam in 2005 and 2007") here:

<p>It says sentence and paragraph completion for the writting, what does that mean exactly?</p>

<p>it's like they give you a word and you have to fill it in the blank but in the right form</p>

<p>The sections of the exam are:answering multiple choice questions about dialogues/narrations/etc, reading comprehension in multiple choice format, a 200+ word essay in Spanish on the topic they give you, a tape recording section where you must speak on the given topics, and a grammatical section. The grammar section is 15 minutes long and has two parts. In one part, you are given a paragraph with blanks in it and you must write the correct form of the verb. In the other part, you are given around 10 seperate sentences with blanks in them and you must write the correct form of the verb. The 10 sentences are unrelated in content. The grammar section of the exam is all fill in the blank; there is no multiple choice and answers are scored as completely correct or completely wrong. Hope that helps.</p>

<p>Wait, are u sure theres no multiple choice for grammar, because there was last year. i took it last year and got a 3, and there was the listening first, then errors and multiple choice grammar(paragraph), reading comprehension, then the writing fill in the blank(seperate) and essay, and the 5 qs and scenes. Is this exam basically just without the errors, and more of the multiple choice grammar? I know for a fact that there was a paragraph last year where we picked the grammar on multiple choice not fill in before the reading, and the fill in the blank of unrelated sentences in writing. Whats gonna be increased to make up for the error, hopefully not reading :(.</p>

<p>Yea, they got rid of the multiple choice for grammar, almost positive. We've been using an AP Test prep book all year, and we stopped doing the MC section midway through the year (she said it was a decent way to learn, but eventually we outgrew it, and since it's not on the test, why do it.)</p>

<p>multiple choice for grammar= cloze passages</p>

<p>There is NO multiple choice grammar section for the AP Spanish Lang exam this year! My Spanish teacher is one of the AP graders who listens to the tapes that we record and regularly receives AP exam updates. She said that they got rid of the multiple choice grammar section this year on the AP exam in an effort to make the exam more indicative of one that you would get in college. In response to the decrease in the grammar section, there's supposedly more reading comprehension/listening questions.</p>

<p>Does anyone know if we will be tested on the vosotros form?</p>

<p>The chances of you getting a vosotros question are very slim. I've only seen a select one or few vosotros questions out of the AP prep I've been doing in my Spanish class all year. If you have the time, try and memorize all of the vosotros forms since you never know, but it's not something I'd highly worry about or lose sleep over.</p>

<p>Chances are that vosotros will not appear on the test, except for maybe in a reading passage... or listening question.</p>
