<p>So, I got a 650 on the French w/ Listening. I had a 690 on a practice test the day before, so I'm kinda disappointed. I'm a junior and I'm taking AP French this year. As you can guess from my score, I'm a non-native speaker.</p>

<p>I was planning on retaking anyway to get at least a 700 or higher. Anyway how should I take this score? Does anyone know how colleges take a score like a 650 from a non-native? I'm hoping to go to a pretty good school as I've already taken 4 APs and I'm taking 4 more this year. </p>

<p>My sister got a 660 in her time and got into Wesleyan and Swarthmore, and she's now a French minor... So maybe I'm overreacting. I'd like your opinions anyway!</p>

<p>You’ll be fine! I’m pretty sure it’s about close to the above average score based on some universities. I just took it and got a 650… my goal was for a 750. I mean it’s not bad and you’re not a native speaker. I am and I was shocked!! But you did well and good job on taking AP French now as a Junior, I did that last year. Now I’m in Spanish. :)</p>
