How difficult are the placement exams? Is there anything I should review before taking them? I am taking Math, Writing, and Spanish for LSA. If I have taken 5 years of Spanish do I still need to take a Spanish Course?
The essay is longish but it’s not hard. Math: it doesn’t cover Calc so as long as your math background is solid you’ll do fine. Spanish: the placement exam is the only way to get out of classes, even with 5 years. To put it in perspective, I had three years in high school and I placed out of first year Spanish. I just need to take 2nd year. How’re your listening skills? If they’re good, you may place out of Spanish.
